Brewer Corporation has implemented a change in the rules to give system architects and their Squadron priority claim on the next system.
All three superpowers are taking a sudden interest in the Terri Tora mystery, and are planning to establish a permanent presence close to HIP 87621. Brewer is anticipating a startport construction boom, and it's offering a high-capacity Mk 2 Cargo Rack to the top 75% of those who help it stock up on raw materials.The Brewer initiative is at the Trailblazer Dream megaship in HIP 90578.
Lakon Spaceways has declared the Type-11 Prospector a resounding success, and have given a cyan paintjob and a decal to everyone that participated. Plus, the Squadron Mining Perk has been increased to 20% extra fragment yield.
The secret of HIP 87621 will be revealed. But permit-holder Lexi October won't commit to a date.
In this week's news, we have dramatic footage of the planetary collision that wiped out a settlement. Anti-Xeno organisations are planning a protest about Thargoids in the California Nebula. Lakon's mining trial is going well, and colonisation is making much more progress than exploration.
On the day the Lakon Type-11 Prospector becomes available in early access for anyone with at least 16,500 ARX to spare, Lakon launches a trial to demonstrate just how good their new ship is. Squadron Carriers unexpectedly aquire a Commodities Market. System Architects get to demolish some of what they built. Archon Delaine has four systems confiscated, to make more room for new Commanders. And there's a planetary collision coming up in the Reienadi system.
Lakon Spaceways has made some dramatic improvements to the Type-11 Prospector mining rig ahead of its release next week, making it far and away the best mining ship in the Galaxy.
Scientists are getting impatient waiting for answers about the fate of student Terri Tora and the permit-locked HIP 87621 system, fuelled by evidence that the October Consortium may have something to hide. And the System Map has vanished.
There are rumours that Lakon Spaceways is planning a 2-week trial of its soon-to-be-released Type-11 Prospector. Some eager would-be participants are already in position. The initiative is expected to start on the day the Type-11 Prospector is released for early access, likely some time next week.
The release of the Lakon Type-11 Prospector has been delayed by a week, to allow improvements to its performance. And Zachary Rackham's initiative to search the Galaxy for clues to the Terri Tora mystery has concluded, but with little indication that any progress has been made.
Members of the press have been invited to test-drive the new Lakon Type-11 Prospector. And we have been given a hint that some useful changes to the Galaxy are coming on 23rd September.
In this week's news, we gasp at the price of the Galactic edition of the Type-11 Prospector. And fears remain high for student Terri Tora, who sent missing while investigating the discovery of new alien life in a permit-locked system. Professor Raddix says he's getting his exobiologist colleagues to demand answers.
It's just three weeks since the shake-up of the way Squadrons work, and since the introduction of the Squadron Carrier. In that three weeks, there have been a number of tweaks made. And today, there is another change, a change that will benefit Squadrons with an absentee Leader.
Zachary Rackham says he has convincing evidence of anomalous exobiological readings on at least one rocky moon in the HIP 87621 system. And in the absence of a permit, he's appealing for help finding similar anomalies elsewhere in the Galaxy.
Lakon has announced details of their new dedicated mining ship, the Type-11 Prospector. It has two unique modules, setting it apart from all other ships.
There are rumours that the company behind the Artemis suit might have made a major advance in the study of exobiology. But if they have, it seems they're trying to keep it secret.Commanders searching for missing exobiology student Terri Tora, after her professor, Frank Raddix, sent an appeal for help, have uncovered messages pointing to something mysterious going on in the permit-locked HIP 87621 system.
Commanders have received a time-critical request for help from Professor Frank Raddix. And a new Galactic secret may be about to be revealed.
A mysterious, and - at time of writing - undeciphered message has been discovered in the Jungkurara system. The Communications Beacon was discovered after an anonymous tip-off was posted to social media.
This is not Frontier Unlocked, for the 27th August 3311.
A recap of where to build your starports to get the economy type you want.
