That’s good news. I’ll try to reroute additional convoys to Coronado. It serves a dual purpose: maintaining a steady flow of supplies for the Atum repairs, and bringing copper back on the return leg to support both our industries.
As for the joint scientific venture: given how critical this project is, I will dispatch the liaison as soon as possible to whichever station you designate. On our side, our primary sites will be Kadesh and Corinth, those will serve as our main research nodes. I would recommend you route your liaison to the former; Livadians tend to be… grumpy with foreigners at Corinth. Industrial support, meanwhile, will be handled through Athens and Sparta.
That said, I strongly advise against any live testing until two conditions are met:
We understand what we are about to unleash. I have no intention of repeating an accident on the scale of Texas or Dublin.
We secure a truly remote test location, far from prying eyes. Once identified, we can mount a prototype on a Bustard or an Aquillon and deploy it there under controlled conditions.
