Terraforming/Main

Nirvana Terraforming and Stellar Engineering <pty ltd>	Terraforming UHP-1002	Terraforming New Ireland

1. The first stage of the storyline is to take David Rengel and his team to Misfire. A repeatable mission to bring more equipment to Misfire is immediately available until the next stage of of the storyline is completed.
2. The second stage is taking David's team to UHP-1002 so they can act as boots on the ground. You must obtain this mission directly from Misfire. The second stage is also made available via cron.
3. The third stage is a sequence of delivery missions available through the Mission BBS. Each delivery mission needs a cron to expire before it's available. As you deliver the goods, you'll witness UHP-002 progress through four stages.
4. The fourth stage begins once UHP-1002 is completely terraformed. You'll be asked to deliver colonists to the planet, and David will take his leave. A repeatable mission to deliver more colonists to the planet will be made available.

"Just as you sit down you see a group made up of two men and a woman, all with the soft, pallid look of scientists, walk into the bar. As soon as one of them spots you they all look in your direction and make their way over."

Offer

"Are you <PN>, captain of the <PSN>?" asks one of the men, and when you nod in confirmation they all grin. "Allow me to introduce myself. I'm David Rengel, and these are my associates Fiona Jeffrey and Mike Robbins. We are members of a scientific team in the employ of the Nirvana Terraforming and Stellar Engineering company, perhaps you have heard of it?" When you shake your head slowly, they look momentarily crestfallen. "Oh well, it is a new field of endeavor," David continues, recovering. "We are looking to start a new project and need someone to help us set up our base camp and you came highly recommended. Are you interested?"

""That's great," he booms, a little too loudly and you wince as many of the patrons look around in interest."

Briefing

"We want to set up our base camp on Misfire in the Trishka system. Initially it will just be me and the other ten members of the team, plus some of the equipment we need. But it won't be long until we will be requiring your services for more equipment. "We are prepared to pay you 25000 credits for your services on this trip," he continues quickly, as if suddenly remembering something. "When can we leave?" You ask him how long it will take him and his team to load up your vessel. "Around three hours or so," he replies, slightly puzzled. "Why?" With a slight smile at his naivete you tell him that you can be ready to leave in about three hours. "Oh!" he exclaims, suddenly understanding. "Then we had better get to work, eh?" You nod, and head off towards your ship.

"Captain <PN>!" he exclaims happily when he sees you. "Just the person I was looking for. My team and I need some more equipment so that we can continue our research, could you help us out?"

Briefing

""Oh, thank you," he tells you, sighing in relief. "We are basically stuck at a standstill until we can get ahold of some of this stuff."

Briefing

"The equipment should be waiting for you in the Deliveries Office on <DST> in the <DSY> system," he tells you earnestly, "and should only come in at around 10 tons in total. If you could head over there and bring it back here that would be great. I've managed to get the head office to give me an extra 25000 credits to pay for your services, but they are only prepared to transfer the money over to you once you have made the delivery, so it'll be waiting for you when you get back."

Offer
"I'm glad you dropped by," he tells you sincerely, "as we need to head out to our operations base to supervise the terraforming first-hand. And since you're about the only freighter captain I trust, I would really appreciate it if you could help us out again, if that's okay with you?"

Briefing

""Okay," he begins seriously, "up until now we have been keeping our target planet a secret because of the possibility of a media circus if we fail."

Briefing

I mean, look at Mars. The scientists who were involved in that are still vilified today. However I have little choice but to reveal to you the planet we have chosen for our experiments, since you're going to be taking us there, but I would ask that you keep the information a secret, okay?" You shrug and nod. "Great!" he sighs forcefully. "We need to be relocated to UHP-1002 in the next system. That's the planet that is the target. We will need about four hours to load the necessary equipment onto your ship. We can leave any time after that."

Completion

As soon as you are finished unloading David makes his way over and touches his helmet to yours so that the two of you can talk privately. "Thanks again, Captain <PN>," he says sincerely as his team begins unravelling some type of thick plastic sheeting which you guess will end up being their home for the next few years. "I have already notified Nirvana's head offices that we have arrived and they will have transferred 25000 credits into your account as usual. If I need anything, I'll get the head office to place it in the Federation Mission BBS' system, so keep an eye out." With that he breaks contact and heads back over to where his team is working.

"You can see the changes wrought by the terraformers as soon as you land. Much of the landscape is now covered by the blue-green algae that had barely gained a foothold when you were last here, and the thick smog-like atmosphere seems to be significantly clearer to you."

Completion

You soon see a group of eight people in suits trekking towards you and when they get closer you recognize several of the members of the team and they smile in greeting. You give them a hand, and in no time you have unloaded everything. "Thanks again, Captain <PN>," says David after he comes over and touches helmets. "As you can see we have made some progress, but we needed this to take the next step. I've already passed on a message letting the head office know that you have arrived, and the credits should be being transferred into your account as we speak.

Completion

From what you can see there is not only the blue-green algae, but also a significant amount of running water and even small amounts of plant life starting to spread around the equator. Once again David and some of his team come out to unload the equipment from your holds. When you are finished you head over to David to tell him how impressed you are. "Why thank you, <PN>," he answers, pleased at your comment. "It is good to hear an outside opinion because it can be hard to notice the effects when you live here day after day after day. "Anyway, we need to get back to keep an eye on a couple of things we just started growing," he explains seriously. "The head office knows that you've arrived, so the 25000 credits should already be in your account. Keep checking out the Mission BBS' as I don't doubt that we'll need your services again."

"Piloting down through the atmosphere you can see that the planet's surface is nearly half covered by water, and that the predominant life forms are now vegetation which covers most of the rest of the surface and that the oceans are filled with a simple plankton-like organism."

Completion

Your sensors show that there is no longer any need for the heavy environment suit, but that a breathing mask is still necessary. Once again after he and his team have finished unloading David comes over and shakes your hand. "It might interest you to know that if we keep up the accelerated plant and algae growth, we may have a breathable atmosphere in around five more years," he tells you proudly, and you're impressed. "It won't be long until we begin introducing animal life to start balancing the ecosystem a little more. Keep looking in the Mission BBS', as we'll probably need you a few more times before we finish here."

"You are very surprised at the changes in the world you see below you as you fly down to the surface."

Completion

Your sensors tell you that the air is breathable, but that a breath mask is recommended for extended exposure of longer than 30 minutes. But more than that there are literally thousands of animals running, flying and swimming all over the surface. As you unload you notice that a lot of your equipment looks like rudimentary weather control equipment and you ask David about it. "Well we are getting to the stage that our ecosystem is starting to run itself," he explains, happy to share his knowledge, "but by our calculations, unless we manually interfere with the process this world will never be habitable for humans, so we are going to set up atmosphere 'purifiers' to see how effective they are in the hope that they can help us overcome it." You clap him on the back and tell him that he and his team have done an outstanding job so far, and that you have every confidence they will solve the problem.

According to your sensors the atmosphere is capable of indefinitely supporting humans, but is a little on the thin side. For the first time you see David and his team without any breathmasks or other apparatus come over to begin the unloading. "The experiment with the atmosphere purifiers worked even better than we expected it to," David explains as you unload what appear to industrial fabrication machinery. "So now we are going to start manufacturing the necessary equipment right here. Within a few months this planet will be ready to be colonized. Keep an eye out, I'll make sure you get one of the first loads so that you can see the finished product."

"And one final thing," he finishes quietly, "Nirvana has been impressed by your reliability and will be making available missions transporting colonists here from all over the Federation through the Mission BBS'.
