Heinlein introduced neodogs in Starship Troopers. Those are great for improved animal stock.
S. Andrew Swann drafted a dystopian future surrounding uplifts. These are great examples for Uplifts- I have used them often.
T5 had some interesting terms that I use to categorize.
Data Access: User Required. This is the TL-7 Interface, TL-11 Intelligent Interface and the TL-11 Digital Friend
Task Enabler: User Required. This is the TL-11/13 Expert
Task Resolver: User Not Required. This is the TL-11/14 Agent, and...
GSO is only relevant if you have no reactionless station-keeping.
I can accelerate a ship to balance out the rotational speed and effectively maintain a GSO (see previous posts with some math)
Exactly.
GPS satellites transmit continuously, but they send one-way timing signals rather than responding to two-way range pings. Each GPS satellite broadcasts a precise time code and orbital ephemeris (position and velocity), allowing the receiver to measure how long the signal took to arrive...
A Geo-Ranging Navigation System (GRNS) is a radio-navigation method that uses a geostationary satellite as a fixed reference point in space. By timing a radio signal’s round trip to the satellite, it determines range—the distance between the receiver and that orbital beacon. Combined with...
I always read the CRB as a singular beacon (aka the starship or a survey probe). GPS is a network, so I dropped it one level of difficulty.
Based on personal experience, so the players can experience the joy of not wanting to wait until all five satellites are picked up while in a firefight, and...
Considering that Navigate by GPS (clear sky, good signal): Easy (4+) Navigation check (1D×10 minutes, INT or EDU), this is more than capable of "doing the job"
But the TL-10 version is better.
No, it also came from 2300AD.
I wouldn't toss that kind of red herring out there,
