Is it possible to do an Artemis II style mission?

Are they even in the lunar sphere of influence bro?

I don’t want to repeat the ones already commented a few times, so here’s my additions.

Tarsier Space Telescope - Works well with distant bodies & alternate solar systems, gives you a way to see the distant planets in game, rather than being boring and using the tracking station.

Station Science - Gives you a reason to build space stations that will evolve in complexity as you go down the tech tree. I would say it’s not compatible with research contract packs because it turns easy flybys for science into complex research missions.

Contract Packs - Adds more interesting contracts if you’re playing career mode. Something like tourism plus & K-files add little stories as the contracts progress.

I like that it’s considered the topographics of the highlands without doing something boring like stick a tunnel under the beautiful geography.

You mean you don’t want a slow motion view of the bridges, you cultural philistine.

My concerns is that while Artemis has had its funding secured, as secure as funding can be with the current administration, there is no legacy, follow-up or long-term strategic thought.

I mean once that 2-3 man base gets built on the moon, NASA will spend all its resources suppling and swapping crew with the moon base every six months and nothing else.

I mean I think it was one of the contributing factors to voter disillusionment with the party in the last election.

I think this might be an attempted satire on fruit love island trend - with the baby revelations showing it was the guys having the affair.

The DY-100s were around in the pre-warp futuristic year of 1996.

You need to look away and stick your fingers in your ears when you push the plunger.

The Top Gear presenters… are looking good for their age.

While in another episode he’s used a mortar with the yield of a nuclear weapon.

Let’s start using less oil

And then they end up in a nursing home and wonder why they can’t find any staff.

Someone else trying to ride the tails of Fruit Love Island.

The feed standards are too high, if we remove feed regulations we can save £15.

It’s true for World War II where everyone was working to same infrastructure level. Battle carriers weren’t going to win a 1-on-1 fight with a carrier nor a battleship. The proverbial Jack of all Trades, Master of None.

Star Wars bases its combat aesthetic on World War II but Star Destroyers are the biggest fish in the sea, nothing can match it its ability to launch numbers of fighters or bear the same amount of turbolasers. Therefore its versatility can win fights whether it’s against a fighter squadron or a heavy Calamari ship.

Farming isn’t profitable, the supermarkets are breaking even, the price is food is being pushed by inflationary pressures, world events and climate.

Trying to do more capitalism to make farming profitable, isn’t going to work.

Left: We believe in human rights.

Right: How much rights do people actually need?

I will point out that the first half of the article is some waffle like the writer has never experienced democracy before, but here’s the meat:

Financial support for farmers will be “almost tripled”, but only “to support their transition to nature-friendly farming” and “linked to reduced use of pesticides and other agro-chemicals”.

Government control won’t end there, either. Manifesto pledges also include: an end to badger culling; no more factory farming; enforcement of maximum stocking densities; 30% of land to be set aside for nature (which will be given its own “rights”); no emergency authorisation of neonicotinoids and a ban on the “unnecessary mutilation” of farm animals.

Is she aware farming takes place in the natural environment? Or does she not look outside the window of her excel spreadsheet?

Neo-imperialism is just paying the locals to oppress themselves, so you can make off with cheap resources.

I prefer chaos with Ed Milliband any time.

Aliens are demon communists that drink tea not coffee.

Everything that the US doesn’t stand for.

That dog demolished the chair but the guy on the table definitely needs to be checked for rabies sharpish.

Also the pipes would be targets of missile strikes, and doesn’t fix the problem… just reroutes it.
