    Vanguard wanted to be punished to make his point. When you think about it, Elki is really just giving him what he wanted.

    Dear Vanguard: You were right, fonts do matter. A little bit. If you beat people in the face with them over and over again they can become noticeable.

    poked the bear, basically

    not so much being intentionally vague as describing the most specific reason for what happened

    So apparently at one point the military was working on nuclear shape charges. Which seems like a very pointed way to say fuck you to so some. The basic idea is that someone realized that the Orion drive is pretty inefficient. But if you could fuck around with the materials you could get the plasma jet to be much faster and narrower. Turns out that will fuck up the pusher plate but you can turn it into a space weapon.

    You could turn it into a regular earth weapon, too.

    Early science fiction writers grappled with the issue that any rocket that was powerful enough to go interesting places was also automatically a weapon of mass destruction. That's why they started to come up with hyper drives and warp drives and all that jazz, because you do not necessarily want your characters to have that kind of weapon because it really changes decision making.

    Transistor major spoilers:
    Red couldn't accept change, just like the Camerata couldn't, which is why she kills herself at the end.

    Ugh, I'm gonna resize my Camerata Portraits because I drew the 3 males in the wrong scale because I am a dumb.

    It's gonna take a long time, I'm sure.

    I would really like to see nuclear rockets used for the next space missions. Under the max speed of an Orion drive, you could get to mars from the sun in something like 2-8 hours?

    That's... that's intense.

    Most of the references to it being deployed are part of SDI. Basically deploy a bunch in space and tag Soviet ICBMs during the lift off phase.

    plus three months of deceleration so you don't simply bomb mars with a human payload :P
