Personal log of Dr. Ray D'€™Inverno

Recently with all the projects I'€™ve started I felt a need to start a personal log '€“ they help a lot when you'€™re analyzing past encounters or just writing down some possibly important information you might forget.

Back to business. I'€™m glad that the IMG agreed to do a full planetary scan of Forres for me. Although, I guess it'€™s only natural if you offer an outrageous sum. Quoting their report for myself:

Trace amounts of precious metals: Silver, Gold.
Trace amounts of Simple Alloys: Mercury, Tin.
Small amounts of: Plutonium, Uranium, Indium, Iridium.
Moderate amounts of: Lead, Copper, Iron, Mercury, Nickel.
Large amounts of: Silicon, Zinc.

Interesting that the planet has a small deposit of Iridium. That could be very useful later on. Other minerals would also be useful if applied properly. I'€™ve already thought of a few evil plans'€¦ or not, actually. Whatever.

In overall. Stage I, cleared. Stage II: Fighting the global warming that occurred 35 million years ago, if the infocards are correct. Exactly for this purpose alone I'€™ve wasted 120 million credits earlier on, when I asked some Freelancers to get some pure cryocubes for me. And they did.

Now here'€™s a small '€œtrick'€ I'€™ve thought of. Cryocube dispersing. Pros: Effectively lowers the temperature, fairly easy to do once you have the cubes. Cons: More clouds will be formed, and that might lead to some hopefully minor unexpected change.

I'€™ll need help of many people while carrying on my last project: Terraforming of Forres. I'€™ll be writing notes for myself about people I'€™ve met.

To start off.
Kai Asuka. A freelancer of kusarian origin. Female. Flies a Raven'€™s Talon, armed with rare prototype weaponry of Diamondback class, I think. During my conversations with the pilot I'€™ve come to the following conclusion: this freelancer is trustworthy; would make a great courier. She'€™d be welcome aboard the Dementia anytime.

Nordstrom. A freighter. Pilot'€™s name is unknown to me. Bretonian origin, I think. Asked me about becoming a researcher; directed him to Cambridge and gave other basic instructions. He'€™ll be welcome later on, when the terraforming would be complete.

Building plans of the Project.
