    Hi, here I've got a corvette

    Javascript is disabled. View full album

    it's weakly armed, but should have fighters guarding it most of the time. It's pretty well armoured though

    'Reaction Systems LTD never expected a war to break out, but a war broke out indeed, and they were left simply to choose which side to take. They decided that they would choose later, and prepare for the war. They decided to make a small capitol ship, to carry cargo and occasionally passengers. This capitol ship was poorly armed, so it needs fighters to escort it. Now all Reaction systems LTD. have to do is to choose which side they want to support.

    Reaction Systems LTD talked to the CEO of HKA, and have sealed a deal.'

    Comapany name: Reaction Systems LTD. (found it's flag and it just sounded cool)

    Uh, the Proton doesn't have boosters. :P

    The first stage just happens to have a weird form six engines. :)

    Honestly, I don't care if it uses solid fuel or not, it just looks cooler. and I know that the first stage has a very short fuel tank, if I had it the full length it would be totally overkill, because it has a perfect amount of fuel to get to orbit, (and still a lot to spare).

    Oh, and about the six engines?

    Also, I don't think that we should merge, because they're trying to do a lunar orbit/flyby/impactor, when we are just sticking to LEO, so if we did merge right now, one of the two sides would have to virtually start over again. Also, it doesn't look like they a have much of a scientific aspect, so in a way, we're way in front of them stage-wise. I have no idea how they plan to get to the moon.

    looking at http://www.australianspirulina.com.au/

    found this:

    Spirulina is 100% natural and a highly nutritious micro salt water plant. It was discovered in South American and Africa in natural alkaline lakes. This spiral shaped algae is a rich food source. For a long time (centuries) this algae has constituted a significant part of the diet of many communities. Since the 1970's, Spirulina has been well known and widely used as a dietary supplement in some countries.Spirulina contains rich vegetable protein (60~ 63 %, 3~4 times higher than fish or beef ), multi Vitamins (Vitamin B 12 is 3~4 times higher than animal liver), which is particularly lacking in a vegetarian diet. It contains a wide range of minerals (including Iron, Potassium, Magnesium Sodium, Phosphorus, Calcium etc.), a high volume of Beta- carotene which protects cells (5 time more than carrots, 40 time more than spinach), high volumes of gamma-Linolein acid (which can reduce cholesterol and prevent heart disease). Further, Spirulina contains Phycocyanin which can only be found in Spirulina.

    In USA, NASA have chosen to use it for astronauts food in space, and even plan to grow and harvest it in space stations in the near future

    Woah.

    This is some serious stuff then. Grows quick and easy, and feeds and keeps animals healthy.

    I just copied all of that of wikipedia -_- I'm just too lazy. i might have a poke around a few more (reliable) websites. Also, we could do some testing on the spirulina if someone could get some

    Toxicological studies of the effects of spirulina consumption on humans and animals, including feeding as much as 800 mg/kg, and replacing up to 60% of protein intake with spirulina, have shown no toxic effects. Fertility, teratogenicity, peri- and post-natal, and multi-generational studies on animals also have found no adverse effects from spirulina consumption. Spirulina intake has also been found to prevent damage caused by toxins affecting the heart, liver, kidneys, neurons, eyes, ovaries, DNA, and testicles. In a 2009 study, 550 malnourished children were fed up to 10 g/day of spirulina powder, with no adverse effects. Similarly, dozens of clinical studies in humans have shown no harmful effects from spirulina supplementation.
