Gah, Hawthorne ninja'd me in the IC. I just gotta tweak my post a bit though. lucky lucky.

P.S. I'm stating this as fact for no other reason than it's funny: Adam's name and likeness were used in that action movie totally without his consent or knowledge, and he's 100% ignorant of its existence.

Mars making bank off it though.

P.P.S: the Red Atlas is the name of the military cruiser as well as the name of the anti-piracy taskforce based out of said ship. Because Mars wanted to make propaganda a cartoon out of it, and there was significant confusion about what was supposed to be what.

Always love to see an RP that moves quickly, eh? Also, that's pretty hilarious. I'd imagine the Space Wikipedia must split off into Red Atlas, Red Atlas (Ship), Red Atlas (Movie), Red Atlas (Cartoon), Red Atlas (Video Game), and Red Atlas (Action Figures and Collectibles). Many more to come, with sequels and spinoffs.

As funny as this is, The reentry event happened one to two years before the Pandora's launch... Movies take longer than that start to finish in modern times.

unless I retcon the date on his CS for this joke.

Krayzikk, what do you think?

Quick headcount; who has an Orbital that can't fly?


Metatron mode can barely fly, if that matters.

Heroic biopics usually have a first draft written and a lead actor cast before the real event is even done. With the power of Disney+-x/ and the Writer's Guild of Sol, any timetable is possible.

Now I'm imagining a really, really terrible low-budget pulp action film about Red Atlas that was thrown together in a month by a couple of high school students, who managed to finish their film before the Martian Government could.

1 minute, 16 seconds before the Tide Queen crash lands:

"Someone go clone Bruce Willis again, a Martian anti-piracy taskforce just prevented a pirate crew from stealing a shipment of cutting-edge Orbitals by crashing the cargo ship into Siberia! We'll call it "Descent into Heroism" or something equally tasteless!"

The Ajax is capable of short bursts of vertical movement via the Talaria Jump Jets, but is otherwise incapable of atmospheric flight- it's too heavy, and the thrusters can't sustain long enough for continual upper movement. Different story in low gravity or Zero-G environments, but still.


All pretty much as I thought. Thank you.

Fox's Outrider can sorta fly in atmo, just not for any real extended period of time. Too power intensive. Skimming the ground with repulser tech is far more energy efficient.

Quick heads up; my activity may be a little limited this week. I'm moving into my new apartment for the fall semester on Saturday after driving on Friday, so I'll be pretty busy straight through until Sunday. I won't be completely gone but I'll be a little slow.

So wait, was the alien tech a secret or no? I may have misinterpreted the IC and OOC opening posts.

And I'm back! Moved in, computer is set up, we're back in business.

Good question, let me clarify. The fact that it exists and was found is not a secret, nor is it a secret that the predecessors to Orbitals were based on what they could figure out. The specifics of the find are still classified, and the artifacts themselves preserved and kept from the public beyond some approved pictures.

Definitely still alive! Just stymied a little by having to move. I'm planning to have a post up tomorrow night at the latest.
