No route through space, through the interstellar void, os unowned. You don’t have the extravagance of road maps, or submitting routea through the air. A short jump dive needs a destination to calculate. And, of course, there are sublight rockets and ships, but its a difference between years and months, and the penalties of time… Continue reading

Counselors Peyde, Counselor Grerbe, Counselor Ji’esala, Ciel’khrah present as usual as advisor to C. Peyde. Note that C. Ji’esala is physically present and in uniform.Review of previous notes. C. Grerbe objects to continued use of “Hummans”. C. Peyde refered to precedent of mission label. C. Ji’esala opts not to express preference. Review of reactions to… Continue reading

So you know the Triumvirate, right? Yeah, only 8 Iu’husid years ago. 6 sessions have completed there. One third for military appointments, one third for civilian elected – and the damn dark seats.Sure. Some have come out as filling the seats in the 5th session. Three goos of dozens, certainly never to be invited to… Continue reading

Hummuns have several radiation sensors. High resolution arrays are present in “eyes”, three sets of wavelenght sensors (peak sensitivities 420nm, 530nm, 560nm my their own units) with some filtering due to containment apparatus, that are closely corrolated into what is labeled color vision. There is also a distributed system for sensing infered, though thes system… Continue reading

“Orthogonal… Diagonalizer” “It a sphere in a tube.” “it’s symptomatic of a non-space faring species, I think.” “Ok, get it out.” “Humans have, for lack of a better term, a 3.1 dimensional system. Length, time, width, height. They usually even get that order wrong, because of how they learn it. Length, Width, Height, Time. Width… Continue reading

Orthogonal measuring systems aren’t invalid. Width, Length, Depth, progression of time… 3.1D is not USELESS. But Orthogonal measure s only really useful under a incredibly small frame, in terms of… anything. It doesn’t really make sense past the horizon. It doesn’t really make sense on the quantum level. One that has been raisd with it… Continue reading

The mandated minimum reintegration distance from a solar mass is 50 solar diameters, as an edict of the Plyd. The current doctrine of the Goos is to target 80 SD for arrival in a solar system, formally referred to as Site 1. Reintegration is the process of exiting MN speeds. At MN speeds, radiation can… Continue reading

So Human, us Goos, Hrutxcan, N’mob, even Ouinhed – these are samples of Hot Carbon species. Liquid water. Some compatibility in foods, some compatibility in poisons, no guarantees. There are also cold carbon species. Liquid methane temperatures. Good trading partners, very suspicious if you mention altering contracts. But what, your year on planet Saturn is… Continue reading
