Yes pl...please to all those points! I'd imagine there plenty of folks o...out there who'd jump at the opportunity for some Starflier's kit certified to withstand the harshest or strangest environs.

Not at this stage unless you want to take part in initial planning and drafting. I will likely need a few days minimum to discuss this with our teams.
What I can say is that once the draft is over we will need some materials to make prototypes. I can make different "test environments" locally quite easy since our research does result in some failed produce every now and then, meaning we can use a control-able hazard. And with Cheronsee in Tau-23 we also have a real testing ground.
Feel free to send me your thoughts at any time. I will continue to upload the file when there were changes on my end.
Specifications that were agreed upon:
• A suit fit for entering wrecks that is able to wield tools and has a decent amount of power and lifetime before it needs recharging.
• A suit that cannot be breached by a simple cut or akin while being out in the open.
• And also has at least some sort of signal that you can send messages short range to other wearers or a ship nearby.

Vanesca, please f....fo...forgive my slow reply to your last communication. It's no excuse, but I ra...ran into a spot of bother I needed to focus on ge...getting out of. My bad. Apologies. With a spot of luck, I'll be able to return to wh...what we both enjoy.
I'd be delighted to take part in the planning and drafting stage. I can al...also help with collecting materials so let me know how I can be part of the team in getting those that we'll need.
One th...thought I had was, and perhaps this is a stretch goal, but some kind of modular frame that could be attached to the suit to help with specific tasks? Transporting some cargo? Mounting specific sensor or shielding for certain environments? Construction, maintenance or salvage tools. Dare I su...suggest the possibility for mounting personal defenses in case of hostile fauna? Food for th...thought.
I'm cu...currently tied down on a particular time-sensitive project until the end of 10.08.835 but after th...that I can make my way to Sol for a good chin-wag?

Yada yada yada yada,
Glad to hear you're still kicking.
The ideas you just proposed are in parts already on my desk. I am currently on the task of making a place that the work on the suit can be started using the small team under me.
Come over once you've time. Maybe I get the workplace done before you arrive, that way I won't have to bugger you to help us buildings the tools to build the thing you and I want.
I will grant you access to the files once the fabricator is workable. Prior to that you may contact me or my team on the Argentum in regards to the fabricator.
You may use the read only type hyperlink I've added while in periphery of Tau-23.
