It's probably just lander-junk, but I can't help but think "Maxwell's Silver Hammer"...

Well if you're equipped to pull things down from YouTube the BNL have put  their own copy up there.

Edit: Or just follow the download link in the description. That would probably be better.

If you tie this in to the current discussion of the extra-crunchy Fenspace alternate and come up with any story ideas, it's your own fault...

Who asked for the ICBM that seats 1200?

Well, NASA thought somebody wanted one...



Time to revise the timeline for the Mars Terraforming Project: the first comet drop will take place - with a small amount of Fen assistance, an evacuation warning for an existing settlement, or both, if necessary - on 19 October 2014.

(In our timeline, the comet might barely miss Mars. I'm hoping it hits, so the politicians will be able to see what a comet impact does to a terrestrial planet, so they'll have a clue why we need a space program.)

On a Wiki Walk, I learned about Jupiter's magnetosphere, which is so large that it could contain the Sun and its visible corona in its central bulge: unlike Earth's magnetosphere, Jupiter's is disk-shaped. It's a strange beast in many ways, and I highly recommend checking the article out.
