This issue is not valid for nations without space programs.
The Issue
A strange transmission from somewhere in space has reached the @@NAME@@ satellite orbiting the planet. Results are inconclusive, so the space program is debating over how to handle it.
The Debate
[option]"Clearly this is a great discovery," dtates @@RANDOMNAME@@, head of the @@NAME@@ Space Administration. "We need more funds to discover what it means...you know, to hire code experts and decipher the message. This could mean anything, you know. I don't know how long it's going to take, but we will have the answer once we get the code experts on the job...you know, the ones we're paying with that extra government money..."
[effect]the space program is working tirelessly on cracking a mysterios code from outer space
[option]"Decoding this is going to be a nightmare," cries out Admiral @@RANDOMNAME@@ of the @@NAME@@ Navy. "Why don't we just retransmit the signal into deep space? We can add our own message along with it, and maybe we will get a response! I don't know how meaningful that will be, but it's worth a try."
[effect]the space program is sending messages into deep space in hopes that someone will reply
[option]"Deep space? Phooey! This is from out own homeworld!" insists @@RANDOMNAME@@, director of the @@NAME@@ Intelligence Agency. "I recognize this design; it's from around here! We need to find out who sent this and what the hell it means! Our existence could depend on it!"
[effect]the government is interrogating everyone they can get their hands on over a transmission from space
[option]"This is what happens when you interfere with God's plans," shouts Reverend @@RANDOMNAME@@ from the front of a church. "It's not too late the dismantle this abomination and abolish this space program once and for all. God separated the worlds for a reason; we are not to contact one another! We must close down the space program, disavow any knowledge of this transmission, and return to the days when we were alone in the universe!"
[effect]people claiming that aliens exist are jailed
[option]This is wonderful, but it doesn't go far enough," demands @@RANDOMNAME@@ from a Star Trek convention. "Sending a transmission into space is not enough; we must find out where this came from and send a manned spacecraft after it! The age of space exploration on a greater level is upon us! One day we will live on other planets! Get ready for it, and send us out now!"
[effect]people with little to live for at home volunteer for deep space missions in hopes of a new life
Stats go up when i am a bit more inspired and have an idea on how to stat a space issue.
