I can definitely see the Supers using them as personal transports around Kandor City and the Watchtower.

Equal day and night, from the Endeavor (The large version is 4095x2691).
I think we should put this one into the Fenspace scrapbook...

Rocket Girls. The entire series. There's enough understated wackyness in this series for two
Fenspace story arcs.

And I can't help but think where the characters would fit into Fenspace, even though we agreed "no fictional characters". Yukari would be at home
on Ptichka's bridge, Matsuri just might show up in Stellvia
main control, Akane could end up anywhere (but I see her on either Hephaestus
or Grover's Corners), Satsuki-sensei would likely wind up somewhere in
the Artemis Project, Motoko would get along wonderfully with Kohran but God help Fenspace if they ever met, and the Director would likely gravitate to the
Benjamin Franklin...

Edit: Link removed - series has been licenced by Bandai

Having now seen the first three episodes (no thanks to AnimeSuki; 100B/s download transfer my ass! *shakefist*), I can see the potential here. And yes, I've said and the consensus agreed to no more crossovers.
That said, if anybody were to write a story using characters from Rocket Girls in Fenspace... I would be sorely tempted to make an exception. Not saying I'd do it, mind, just that I'd be tempted.

Sorry about that...
Mind you, Motoko could show up without breaking the rule - she's a suitable template for a Scott-series android, after all. (No, I'm not going to write her into Fenspace that way. I already have Kohran in the role she'd fill.)

If Noah likes those, what about this from the same company? Of course if he wants things like the date he'd need this, or if he wanted to be obtuse he could use this.
Or he could get Sora or Kohran to reprogram this. [Image: wink.gif]

Not exactly a *site* but it's sure as hell inspirational to me. I've been tracking this down for weeks, and I finally managed to get my hands on Takara's miniature Buran model:

From the General Protection Fault archives: a rather prevalent Warsie mindset.

Why there's a high-powered laser on Stellvia: Officially, as a communications backup. Unofficially, in case the 'danes go ahead with this anyway.

Yeah, WW1 has a comm laser as well. They also have the software to task it for painting targets. Ebony the Black Dragon

No doubt the Minor Planet Center has a presence in Fenspace. They'd likely be one of the very few organizations connected to both the TSAB and Project Artemis.

The first OS I ever used has gone open-source. Which means by 2013, Stellvia's non-sentient computers will all be running an updated version of Multics. (Not one of Kohran's projects, for a change - Noah will have thrown money at the problem and got a few real programmers in to update the kernel. Should anyone want to create a computer programmer character for Fenspace, here's a job for his, hers, or its backstory...)
