(This brought the science inventory down to zero and all future science points will be exchanged for funds now that the tech tree is complete).Ĭoncurrent to the report below, there was another tourism mission to both Minmus and Mun that takes place "off camera". The goal is to be a science and exploration company, not a tourist company, so this program, the Patents Licencing Program, will act as a new source of income allowing the company to focus more on, well, science and exploration, and leave more of the tourism to others.Ī one-time Research Rights Sell-Out was also conducted as an addendum to the Patents Licensing Program. Having achieved a sufficient level of technological progress, the company has also decided to begin sharing its scientific discoveries and research, as an alternate source of funding. So an Appreciation Campaign has been started, using 35% of contract income to fund a kind of advertising campaign to raise the prestige and reputation of the company in the public, to put some of that money to use and also to attract more lucrative contracts. Too much funding coming in with not enough new construction to spend it on (not yet anyway).
While useful during the expensive construction of all the moon infrastructure, it seems the pendulum has swung in the opposite direciton. Anyway, back to the story:Ī while back the Fundraising Campaign was terminated when it became clear that the tourism missions were bringing in ample funds. There's also a crew roster there to allow (and readers) to better keep track of who's who and where they are. I also noticed a numbering error when going back through the old posts so I corrected that, which is why the numbers jumped forward slightly. I finally got around to updating the first post with a proper table of contents. Before we begin in earnest, some housekeeping matters to address.įirst, some out-of-story news.
HQ has been filled with anticipation of the arrival of the Duna/Ike Science Mission.
