2013.06.01 -- Glorim has found an unusual asteroid in the Altair system and will pause to study it. Risk factor 15%. Also, a basic mine is being built on Bakangi, the first real resource contribution that the still-new colony will make.

07.01 -- Fleet upgrades are now completed.

07.23 -- Research station(Physics) completed in Arrakis.

08.07 -- It has been determined that the asteroid in the Altair system was towed into orbit intentionally. Remnants of the engines and thrusters can be seen jutting out from the rocky surface. It was also mined at some point for minerals.

08.08 -- Wollaeus system survey complete, with only a single modest energy deposit. The battle debris will be handled next.

09.01 -- Mine operational on Bakangi. For the time being the most profitable and unusued provinces on the colony would not be enhanced by new infrastructure projects. At this point it will probably be many years before new construction is needed.

11.27 -- First debris field in Wollaeus analyzed. Nothing new other than minor physics and engineering boosts.

12.30 -- Engineering research station finished in Arrakis.

2214.02.01 -- First mine upgrade begins on Humboldt.

02.02 -- Dangerous Wildlife Removal research has been finished. It will not be needed for a while, but Bakangi will be able to clear out a couple more provinces when desired.


Research Director's Briefing: Dr. David Corperial

** Doctrine: Space Combat(Military Theory, 259) -- Increases naval capacity by 10%.
** Planetary Unification(Statecraft, 259) -- +1 influence monthly, unlocks Propaganda Broadcasts(planetary edict, +10% happiness)
** Toxic Kelp Removal(New Worlds, 388) -- Allows us to clear another type of unusual province. Two of Bakangi's provinces are toxic kelp. 5 of 6 blocked provinces on Leesak IIb and 4 of 7 on Norgon III are toxic kelp as well. It seems to be the most plentiful obstacle on the ocean worlds we have come across so far.

Dr. David Corperial, you are on the clock. The Society Dept. awaits your instructions.
