MemberOvomorphJun-09-2017 5:08 AMNot sure what is going on with the forum at the minute however it seems that every other topic I click on is filled with a fair bit of negativity and trolling. I come here on a daily basis, sometimes just to read and sometimes to participate and have found all the members ( bar from a couple whom I won't name ) to be genuinely nice and intelligent people. Being a gay man myself it saddens me to see in 2017 the word ' homo' being used a couple of times! sorry for the small rant, just wanted to get this off my chest! That aside, Still great work and updates form you guys!

MemberPraetorianJun-10-2017 6:35 PMSilent Running is interesting but it is not attractive to me. I hope you understand what I'm trying to tell.
I like Logan's Run but there are several childish and boring scenes in it. And it is not a space sci-fi.
I know there are a lot of people who do not like The Black Hole. I do. :) Its music is awesome as well.

MemberFacehuggerJun-10-2017 6:41 PM@Ati. Black Holes is one of those movies that people either love or hate. Great score as you say, but the whole setup left me a little amused.
I will say that David has a lot of Maximillian in him...Offing humans and robots alike...

MemberPraetorianJun-10-2017 7:33 PMJust finished writing it in, and have an early-stage rough-out of it's story with regards to it's mission to the Lakota star system to investigate signs of habitable worlds. :)
As for it landing tail-first, well if Elon Musk can do it with conventional rocketry nowadays in the real-world, there's NP with such with advanced tech. :)
...gotta do some picture searching for ground vehicles that 'fit' the ALIENverse aesthetic, which isn't too hard, and also plausibly fit aboard albeit with VERY little garage-space, and can be deployable via an extensible cable-crane-lift system.
How the crew gets down to the ground, well the central shaft below the main body could plausibly have an elevator system for personnel and small/light cargo items.
The Palomino flies again!!
THIS time with a happier ending. :)
IN SPACE THERE IS NO WARNING
