DGNT announces the founding of a new company, know as Planetary Prodcutions.
They have opened a limited market to Space Nations, for a very, very, expensive service.
Custom planets.
A typical custom planet is about the size of Earths moon, though we can build as large as Earth itself, but those are hugely expensive. Artifical planets will have no natural resources, unless they are requested. Each planet will be made to suit exact specifications of the contractor, such as gravity, air preassure, day-night cycle, native life, atmosphere, and many others. All planets come with a ten billion year warrenty in case of destruction from NATURAL causes. Military destruction or other cases of artifical destruction do not apply.
If you wish to purchase a planet, please fill out the following form:

Size: (How big is your planet?)
Atmosphere: (What type of atmosphere do you want?)
Gravity: (How many Earth gravities does your planet have? 1 is Earth, 2 is two times Earth gravity, 3, 4, 5 etc. etc.)
% Liquid coverage: (What percent of your planet is submerged? Please specify liquid type as well)
Native Life: (What sort of flora and fauna does your planet have? Types or specifics will do)
Typical surface: (what is primary component of the planets crust? (First 1-2 miles down))
Environment: (What sort of weather do you want?)
Other: (Anything else you desire)

When this is filled out, a price estimate will be giving, if this is accepted production will begin.

The average production time for a planet is five weeks (five RL days, I think), using Slo-Time production we create glaciers that form the landmassess of a planet, over roughly four million years, we then set down the life forms you request and allow them to adapt and become a functioning eco system, this takes about three hundred relative years. After this time we transport the planet via hyperspace to a location of your choice, and using massive tractor beams, set it into a stable orbit.
Free orbital maintentce services are provided in the event of decaying orbits.

For customer service, please Telegram Dontgonearthere.

Or not?

(OCC: Darn! You beat me to it!)

IC: Would you be interested in a buisiness partnership? LRR has started experimentation with planetatry engioneering, and, while not very far into it, we could probably contribute a workforce of 500 constructor suits as well as engineers.

But anyway, LRR would like a small homeworld.

Size: 3138 km
Atmosphere: We'll take care of it
Gravity: .01 earth
%Liquid Coverage: Ice
Native Life: We'll take care of it
Typical Surface: Ice
Environment: Snow
Other: Please build in the orbit of the star Betlegeuse, approx. the distance of Europa from the Sun

I can't buy one now (I'm in a small spat of trouble and have no funds available) but can I pre-order a planet?

Alright LLR, estm. cost is 40 Trillion GLAcreds (80tril USD).
In any case, a buisness partnership would be excellent, a 50-50 split of all profits made via this storefront, or yours, if you make one. And a joint manufacturing front would be excelent, DGNT Nanites have begun construction of your planet, and the main body is about halfway finished.

Klonor, sure, I can also accept small payments over time.

You stole the Magrathea idea.

It was a good idea, and, as far as I know, nobody has it copyrighted. Would you like to buy a planet sir?

It was a good idea, and, as far as I know, nobody has it copyrighted. Would you like to buy a planet sir?

Yeah, I would, but later, I need to save up money. (Or get an Infinate Improbability Drive and turn your business into strawberry shortcake.) Thank you for asking, sorry for the hijak.

Do you do terraforming work of already somewhat habitable planets?

The fourth planet in our system, Endicott, has a small temperate region near the equator. The rest of it is too cold for comfortable habitation, and so the only human presence on the planet is a naval station. We would like you to increase the temperate zone by 2/3 if possible.

S'alright Jim.

Varnii, would you object to our moving your planet slightly closer to the sun? This is a simple service and we will only charge 550,000 GLAcreds (1,100,000 US dollars), to make up for time and energy costs. When shall we begin?

How much closer? Not enough to disturb any other orbits right? And if so, then you can begin any time. The money will be wired to you when the job is begun.

No, not close enough to cause signifigant alterations to the system. A few minor earthquakes are to be expected, but, any other alternative, save solar mirrors, which are massivly expensive and difficult to maintain, would only last a few years. The ships have been dispatched.

Alright, money wired. And how "minor" are the earthquakes?

Very small tremors, hardly enough to be felt.

Sounds good, and when will the project be finished?

Very small tremors, hardly enough to be felt.

10 bucks says next news report is "Massive earthquakes level civilization!"

Do you want your planet or not Klonor *glare*

In any case, they are quite small.

Oh no, you did not just glare at me!

I belive I did. :x

...

Klonor, you going to give me specs for the planet, or what?

Ok, LLR, your planets structure is completed, we are adding the surface cover now, as well as begining the process of stabilizing the core.

I told you, I can't buy it yet.

You wanted to pre-order, remember? :D

That just means I tell you I want one and you confirm. I haven't bought it, and you havent started making it.

Meh, alright.

Bump

Well, I won't be buying any new ships for a while. :)

And the buisniness partnership- thanks a lot! :D We will create connstructor fleet 1 for the purpose of building planets.

But anyway,

*Money Wired*

(It's ok to pay in installments, right? :wink: )

Very good.

I'd like a planet created. This planet will be inhabited by Ancient Terra, and Neo Garner. Our total population equals about 2 billion, and we both maintain extremely high economies. That said...

Size: 6500 km in Diameter
Atmosphere: Similiar to Earth's
Gravity: .95
% Liquid coverage: 76% Water
Native Life: Sharks, Whales, other seagoing stuff, animals that live in the jungle, erm...dinosaurs?
Typical surface: Nice, solid ground. However, make sure it's nice, fertile ground, too.
Environment: Usually sunny, frequent rainstorms, typhoons, and hurricanes out in the ocean.
Other: We'd like to make this entire planet basically dotted with islands. Our largest island should be the size of the United States, and the rest of the planet is covered in islands as large as the Phillipines to as small as Fiji, or something...:lol: Besides that, we have no special requests.

Looks good, the price is about 80,500,000,000,000, since a 'real' planet is harder to construct than a giagantic iceball 8). The native life will be introduced via DNA samples taken from prehistoric Earth, and allowed to evolve/adapt to the planet for about five hundred thosand years, so they might not be exactly what you planned.
And the islands...shall I also make one side of the planet be perpetual sunday afternoon just before the beachbars close? :lol: 8)

Oh, LLR, your planet is currently having its orbit calculated, after about one year it will be moved into its place and started off on its orbit.

Thanks! :D

Get your skis ready! :lol:

Interesting idea; unfortunatly, we've already finished most of the terraforming sceduled to take place within our future Home Cluster. Took us the better part of a century.

Man, this is going to make the DGNT Empire rich :) Its horribly expensive, but people just cant get enough.
In any case, all nations can afford this service, we accept payment in any currancy (provided it is convertable to GLACREDS), and can accept payment over large periods of time.

bu p

Everything looks excellent. Assuming that you're not kidding, we believe a perpetual Sunday afternoon would be quite cool...unfortunately, a recent poll taken on the richest 5% of our population suggests that they wouldn't want perpetual daylight...interferes with sleep or something. :D

Ancient Terra will of course pay the sum stated above. Our budget per year is $16,530,885,000,000. Assuming no military expenditures (for the next few years, mind...:roll:), could you please work out a payment plan for us? We thank you greatly and look forward to the day we set foot on our planet.

~Emperor El' Jonson, Leader of the Republic of Ancient Terra~
~Talus Karn, Prime Minister~
~The Senate, Congress, and various other political branches 8)~

10 Trillion for eight years? Then the rest one year later.
Or 5 Trillion for sixteen?
Or, if you really want to keep most of your money, 1 trillion for eighty years...

We will settle on 10 trillion for eight years, with the rest payed afterwards. Although this will seriously impact our budget, we believe it will be worth settling any debt early.

The first payment of 10 trillion is ready to transmit.

Thank you,

~Emperor El' Jonson~

Thank you for your buisness, the planet you requested is under construction as we speak.

LLR, your planet has been moved into its orbit, I suggest a waiting period of a few months, to allow the gravity to settle and the planet to stabilize compleatly.

THANKS!!!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D

THIS CALLS FOR A PARTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D 8) 8) :o :o :o

A sking trip possibly? :shock:

That, or a Walrus cook...I can't possibly think what else he could do on that planet yet...:D

Terra, your planet is 1/2 compleated, when its done and stable, we will add the requested wildlife.

Thank you. We have sent the second payment, after numerous credit checks and raised eyebrows. :D

Tsk tsk HAT. You are a bad bad (insert gender).

*inserts gender as male*

We are very pleased with the progress you've made on our new home, and are submitting the 3rd payment as we speak.

Okay, the actual planet is completed, two more years and we will place it into orbit.

Thank you. The fourth payment has been wired. If possible, could you send us a couple photos of our new home? They'd be useful in quelling the riots, most people think that we're diverting all the money somewhere else.

(ooc: No, I don't need actual pictures...:D)

Ah, that probobly wouldnt be good, since the planet is currently a barren dustball. Next year we will send photos though.

Ah, I see. Well then, I guess it's off to the lands of Photoshop. Time for some composites...

The 5th payment will be transmitted soon.

MMMkay, the life has been seeded, and you have one more year to go.

That, or a Walrus cook...I can't possibly think what else he could do on that planet yet...:D

Actually, we have a very rich and diverse macroscopic (above the ice dwelling, meaning it doesn't count fishes) ecosystem.

We have:

The Sirian Howler Weasel
The Sirian Howler WeaselRaven
The Flightless PenguinBeast
The Flying HowlerElephant
The Sirian Croaking GodzillaBeast
The Great-Beaked gerbilMonster
The Edinburgh Bagpiper Hawk

Meh, DGNTs Horribly Mutated Thing comes in all shapes and sizes. Some are quite good, and taste sorta like chicken. Others are sort of protoplasmic blobs.
We even have a Feather Bellied HMT :roll:

I forgot to mention our most important anmianl- The Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal.

Bah, those things are bloody stupid, HMTs can open a can of noodles without a can opener! In the dark! With all...limbs...tied behind their backs!
HA!

Oh YEAH? WELL THE RBBOT CAN.......ER........EAT STUFF!!!!!!!!!!!! WITH NO LEGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND YOU DIDN'T SPELL ANIMAL THE COOL WAY!!!!! I DID!!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!

Well...your animal is...DUMB!!! Ha! Anyway...anymore planetbuyers today?

Boing. HAT, your planet is in orbit and awaiting colonization. It should be stable now, and can be built on. Have fun.

So, I had this great idea on day. I will telegram you it. (It is most secretive)

Ok, TG away then.

When will the orbital adjustment of Endicott be complete?

Arribastania
Size: About 1/2 earth
Atmosphere: atmosphere of earth
Gravity: 1
% Liquid coverage:58% fresh water
Native Life:none
Typical surface: rocky dirt. (i'd like it terraformed)
Environment: occasional rain, sort of like earth in spring and summer
Other: orbital docking stations. lots of them
I'm resurrected and have a loan from Arribastan for whatever i can't afford.

Vernii, the adjustment is completed, the planet is fully stable, one slight earthquake resulted in the light bruising of somebodies upper arm and the breakage of a pot of petunias. Both have been rembursed.

Ok DC, the cost is about, lets say, 95 tril, and the docking stations...do you want to do them? It will cost an extra trillion for us to put them in.


(C'mon, people, wheres the planets of solid gold? They would be quite cheap, if you made them small enough.)

--Post Deleted by NationStates Moderators--

It is a planet after all, y'know? They take alot of time and effort to make. And, I would accept payment over time. If you give me your national budget and a max amount per year I can work out a decent plan for you. No interest or anything.
And, just to let you know, you can delete the last post of a topic, if its yours, thats what that little X in the top right corner of the box is for :D

Ah, DGNT!

Is it possible to add Orbital Platforms, or is it too late? My Ministry of Mind-Boggling Calculations has concluded that landing my population transports in an atmosphere will tack a couple trillion onto the transport cost. We will gladly pay the extra two trillion to you, just to eliminate all of the extra stress caused by old people complaining about their landing.

i think lots of people alrealy know who i am, but

fine. 45 payments of 2 trillion per NS year. how is that? the first 6 trillion is ready to be wired now.

HAT:
Sure, how many do you want? I would suggest landing a few thosand people to aid in construction, it would help us cut costs and save you money. The platforms would be Gsync, and linked to the planet by elevators, the travel time would be ten minutes, with stops every now and then to adjust for gravity.

DC:
Thats good, the planet is now under construction.

LLR, you ever going to send me that idea?

Thank you. We'd like...six if that's okay with you. If they could all be clustered over the largest continent, that'd solve a lot of problems with transportation. Four-thousand men are enroute to assist with construction.

5th and 6th payments have been wired.

Only six? That wont cost NEAR a trillion dollars, if all your looking for is a shuttle service.
I would say about 1-4 billion per station, 40-50 if your looking for large stations, sort of like airports, but the cheap ones would have maybe, ten landing pads, for quick offloads. The big ones would have up to a hundred, as well as facilites and staff housing.

(For the future, when I am a space nation)

Size: 10,000 km2
Atmosphere: Earth-Like
Gravity: 2
% Liquid coverage: 25%
Native Life: Forests with fir trees, elms etc.
Typical surface: Normal Earth Crust
Environment: 25-30 centegrade average, 30-40 summer
Other: Covered in grass, where capable, with huge forests.

Right FC, thats gonna be expensive....maybe 200 tril. due to size considerations.

wow.

Okay, bit big.

Lets wait till Im older....

LLR, you ever going to send me that idea?


Oh yeah! I sort of forgot. Here it is.

Okay then...I'd say 15 of those large landing pads, at 50 billion a piece...

We'll give you one trillion to make them all spiffy looking...you know, plush leather seats and viewports and the like...:D

wow.

Okay, bit big.

Lets wait till Im older....

I still accept payment in chunks :shock:

Ah, HAT, your deal is accepted, give us two months and they will be up. Do you want defences? Or just transport?

...

Just transport, please. As soon as we have our infrastructure set up on the planet, we'll turn our research division to orbital defense platforms.

Right, the prefabs are being moved into position around the planet, construction will begin shortly.

7th and 8th payments wired! ;D

*cheers*

...

...

In case you're interested, 38 trillion has been wired so far :D

Thanks DC.
Anybody else want a planet? C'mon!

I wish to have two. Payment plans will be made up upon estimates.



Size: We need a moon around FroggyWorld that is pretty big but not enough to cause huge tidal waves.
Atmosphere: How about 65% nitrogen, 35% oxygen, 1% CO2 and 1% trace crap
Gravity: 3/4 earth gravities
% Liquid coverage: A few small oceans. (H20)
Native Life: None, we can populate it.
Typical surface: Rock, soil.
Environment: I don't really care. I'll have mostly sunny, with some rain.
Other:

Size: Small.
Atmosphere: 50% Oxygen
Gravity: 1/4 earth gravity, to aid in construction.
% Liquid coverage: One small lake with duranium cover over it completely. We'll handle the rest. (H20)
Native Life: None.
Typical surface: Smooth rock.
Environment: Rainy.
Other:

We have 213,843,540,000 a year to spend FYI.

~Supreme Chancellor Keiran Halcyon

Cost est.
1st world: No size specified, please state.
2nd world: 75tril, no specific size, rounded up.

Wow 75 tril for a rainy barren piece of crap O_O but oh well,

the first one can be um...some medium size. I'm not good with figures.

This is Frog's other nation FYI

Size: Diameter = 5000 km.
Atmosphere: Similar to Earth's
Gravity: 1.25 x Earth Gravity
% Liquid coverage: 45% liquid, all fresh water (H2O) frozen on 'far side'. (explanation in environment data)
Native Life: All life on planet (including the few plants) is to be carnivorous.
Typical surface: 45% frozen water, 45% scortched, radioactive wasteland, 10% lush fresh land, always in perfect farming weather for agriculture.
Environment: Planet will not rotate so one half will be devastatingly burned from constant exposure to solar radiation, the other frozen completely solid, and the border between exists in a constant never ending twilight.
Other: Planetoid to have four, small, asteroid-sized, moons to be used as planetary defense, and monitoring stations. Both in perfect synchronies orbits making sure they never collide.

44 trillion now

Bump, if your still alive Gidjajjh, say so.
