Credonia News Network

Yesterday, the Credonian Space Agency tested its Saturn IB launch vehicle's launch abort system. The test was very successful and Credonia is now on the right path for its upcoming moon mission and landing. Pictures of the test are below:

I've got nothing IC to say, but it's good that you're working up the steps to a space mission, instead of just saying "We have a rocket". Keep up the good work!

OOC: Thanks. When i actually carry out the space mission to the moon, it will actually be documented with all of the required figures, and most amazingly, it will be in real time so anyone who has the knowledge can take all of the numbers and data that i post and determine that what im doing is not only realtime but EXTREMELY accurate. The entire mission will last abotu 8-10 rl days dependong on how many orbits i do, but i need to plan the mission first which takes quite a while (a couple hours at the least) so i wont be doing it this weekend. BTW, pictures will accompany the mission updates so everyone can see what exactly is going on and what exactly happened DURING the mission.

Emperor May sends his congrats for this wonderful achievement by our ally Credonia. He would like to also say that if you require any help at all, all you have to do is ask.

Thank you. Before we head for the moon, if you are interested we would like to offer one or two of your astronauts a seat aboard one of our missions to the moon. Of course they would need to come to Credonia for training, but such arrangements could be made to facilitate such accomodations.

OoC: What program is that you used to get those pics?

OOC: Orbiter, but it will take you months to figure out (literally) it took me one month and i have 7 years worth of knowledge of orbital mechanics in my background lol (thats how realistic it is)

Quanda would like to officially and openly congraulate our Credonian friends on their latest accomplishment in the field of aerospace technology.
We hope to attain your level of capabilities within the RL year, and put a man of our own on the surface of our closest neighbor. Your pioneer spirit will assist us in the future.

Thank you and good luck with your endevours in space exploration

We'll send an astronaut.

His name is Ernest B. Johnson.

Our nation has long been interested in space and while currently, we have very adventurous plans, our only space capability is the Buran class space shuttle Unity which has completed one unmanned mission and one manned mission, launching an Elias and a Patruan satellite in the later case.

Therefore we would love to send an astronaut, and we can offer one of the crew members from the ORBEX II mission, so only lunar and rocket conversion traning will be needed. With your permission we will select anastronaut based on which speciality you would require.

(our pgram is 7-8 months RL old and therefore ahs consdierable facilities for training, research and component manufacture)

General Bergstein,
Mission Director ‘ORBEX III’
Commander in Chief Space Division
Elias Air Force

UE: we would need an astronaut with a Doctorates Degree in geology and physics so as to help map out the moon and determine the contents of the moons surface.

TF: Very well, send him to our facilities and we will begin training

Ernest Johnson has arrived in your country. He's all yours.

Make sure he comes back alive...

Dont worry, he'll be back in 8 days. Launch is set for tomorrow RL

BUMP

Is it too late to send an astronaut because Commander Yitzhak Meir has teh necessary qualifications?

nope its not too late, launch is going to be in a few months (NS time, a couple days RL time)
