This just gets more and more interesting. Also, when 1.0 comes out, I am doing a Fan-Work and it's about: Laythe, Nucs, Grilbles and Survival. Seems good, eh... Anyhow, back on topic, this fan work is very cool. The chapter when Dr. Kerman burns up (or does he?) gives me an incredible mental image of a rocket with 4 BACC SRBs and a Flt-800 with a 10 thruster Ion probe. Nice work!
