Good Night, 'Feather! One last recap, for those who came in late...

We've been working on this project for well over a year.

For quite a long time, we floated in the ocean, seemingly idle, while we gleaned Uranium ions directly from the ocean currents.

There is quite a lot of dissolved Uranium in the ocean. We got ours there because we didn't want to attract the attention of certain agencies and individuals to our plans.

We were also lightening our structure, and using the materials thus gained, as well as others that were purchased, to build our Shuttles, our internal structure, set up our ecologies and food and oxygen production facilities, and innumerable other tasks.

We sent an expedition to the Moon, proving the concept of Nuclear propulsion, and on December 27, we took off from the vicinity of Eniwetok Atoll in the Pacific, directly into orbit, and then onward to Mars.

So what you're saying is the water isn't safe to drink?

And if we did, would our urine glow in the dark? Or be explosive?

Including methane outgassing. Not a detail to be overlooked.

Not to be confused with the Ewok Atoll--not in the Pacific but it's a-high.
