For a rather slow start, this has been a productive week.
I got transit permission from Bretonia, same deal as Rheinland; I can carry the hardware, I just cannot use it for the traditional purpose. Given that I am not planning on advertising services, this shouldn't be a problem.
I have started my lab project at Heisenberg by getting reinforcing materials delivered to the station. It will take me a while to make the needed changes, but it is not anything I have not done before. In fact, Heisenberg is loaning me some of their folks to make certain that it gets done according to their standards. Since mine are more restrictive than theirs, I am looking at it as unexpected assistance.
My next phase will be to actually bring in lab equipment. That won't be for a while, though, given the amount of work I have to do to the environment.
I also started a dialog with the Sol Project. It seems very ambitious to be planning a hypergate when you don't have a target, but I'll leave the astrogation to someone else. Given my own experiences, I think I have a lot to contribute so let's see where this heads.
