Well, realistically it's perfectly feasible that Venus is actually closer, based on orbital positions.
I doubt that's how this game is running though. In any case, I want to pick up those probes, in case they have anything our scientists should look at.

Eh, we've never had problems with it. I suppose you could use filtered or bottled water if you wanted.

Yes, let's. Shame about the minerals; I'm not sure it will be worth the effort to have a bunch of mining shuttles flying here and there, but that is a question for the future. Hopefully the away team had better luck.

It's quite telling that the majority of the stills feature gorgeous women walking around in swimsuits. I foresee this being featured on MST3K.

If it hasn't already, I'm pretty sure it won't, as MST3K stopped running around the turn of the millenium (Feb. 1999, IIRC). OTOH, Rifftrax is basically the MST3K people minus not being able to mock AAA movies, so~

You get what I'm saying though. This reeks of 50's style B-grade goodness.

Dunno what supermarket you shop at, but I've never had cardboard-tasting tea.

The thing about space stations is that you can put them pretty much anywhere. It's not like they remain stationary in any case. If we do find something worth exploiting, then we can worry about stations.

Indeed. We don't even have the technology to place them, but if we come across an interesting rock, we can take that back to earth, no problem.
Mineral scan it is!

Not Earth. We keep it aboard the ship to research.

Nah, we can't keep everything on our ship. We'll run out of room eventually, and we don't want to keep all of our scientists and knowledge on a ship that may be going into battle or dangerous situations. We need an off-world research station, out of reach of the Earth governments. That means somewhere other than the Moon. Mars perhaps.

I don't understand how Y can be anything but a vowel. Just feel that sound, man!


...Vowel power. *raises fist*
