Its going to be a 6.5 year trip, as we are heading directly towards it, and not going from system to system (As we don't have a stable FTL drive.)

Its going to be a 6.5 year trip, as we are heading directly towards it, and not going from system to system (As we don't have a stable FTL drive.)

Will anyone remain out of suspended animation?

I'll most likely be up every 3 months for checks. And you guys can decide if the ship needs attending to to be out of stasis.

No, it replaces the dislike with a like. @Point Breeze accidentally disliked one of my posts once, and by turning it into a like, it removed the dislike.

But I assume the dislike/like will get removed when the post gets deleted anyway.

Modifications to stabilise the warp drive will probably be complete in 2.5 years anyway...

Also, keep in mind we do have drone workers thingies that can do things while in stasis.

You could work on the FTL drive (Zemas, is it canon in this RP to be called a warp drive?) for the first 2.5 years and then make the jump past lightspeed.

But considering how this is a very primitive FTL drive, I think for longer travels we'll still need to go into stasis.

Currently it is named FTL Drive, since it is a prototype. The Engineering crew can name it one it stabilizes. And yeah, long travels will need to go into stasis.

If we're basing it off of real life, I suppose warp drive could be a common name for FTL drives anyway.

Well, we can call it the warp drive for now.

If we have a prototype FTL drive, that means we have achieved a stable space-time distortion field, which makes the final problem the ability to maintain the integrity of the field, which means lots of power. We need to just upgrade the power systems and then we could maintain the speed until fuel reserves run out. That involves matter-antimatter reactions in the power core though, so you're essentially creating an entirely new power system from scratch, hence the really long time to complete the modifications.

^^Wow I feel like a nerd.

Well, good luck with that.

So I suppose our FTL drive will be Star Trek-inspired in its mechanics.

As of I've seen, many nations would want to colonize a few planets. So, do you mind if we bring our own ships along with these expeditions and colonize any planets of our interest?
