[M - B05] Experiment G1B05

Are you sure this will work?

Oh, yeah, totally. Moose’s team has been messing around with this stuff for a while. They’re off testing it out near Donwarr as we speak.

You mean it hasn’t been tested yet?

Uh… it probably has? I kinda just skimmed Fields’s notes: superpositions, n-dimensional singularities, certain death, blah blah blah. Anyway, I figured if we can create a stable hollow GATE field around a ship, the field should transport all incoming or outgoing signals through the GATE, meaning that the ship will be undetectable.

But couldn’t we wait until Moose’s team has finished their tests first?

And let them get all the credit? No chance!

GATE stabilisers equalised at 100% Sal.

Excellent. Ok, you ready Walker?

I guess…?

Ugh, it stinks here Sal. Why did we have to do this in the middle of a swamp on a planet we haven’t even settled yet?

Blame Chief Accountant Long. I wanted to do this on Torresta but Long got all upset about it just because the risk assessment said there was a small chance of a catastrophic Rhumkopf discontinuity. She insisted we do it out here where no one will notice if we implode a continent.

What was that?!

Nothing! Fire it up!

It worked! We can’t see her!

Err… but shouldn’t we not be able to see the GATE drive too?

Hmmm… Switch off the drive and see if she comes back.

Nooo! Where is she??

Calm down. She probably ended up in a parallel universe or something. I’m marking this down as a success!

What??

Well, the aim was to make her undetectable. Norton, can you detect her?

Er… no…

Exactly! Success! Now, who wants to go next?

Thanks for reading! C&C welcome! Make sure you check out the spoiler

...and then my leg was bitten off by a giant frog!

Aaaaaaaaaah!

Well, this isn't right...

The dark orange and red leaves look amazing together Great contraption too, the stabilizers and connection hoses look very functional

[Mr Greeble]

Hey, something to explain why Agent G teleported! Great build as always, Sal.

[LittleJohn]

Excellent build, Sal The landscape is great, and I really like the hoses on the GATE drive

[Col. Brik]

Great build and great story as usual. Very impressive!

[David FNJ]

Haha, that's great! Super cool GATE drive, and the Octan version cool too, but not as cool as the MANTIS one ;)

All the different foliage pieces are fantastic!

[MKJoshA]

"Norton can you detect her?"

[Big Sal]

Thanks everyone! It's good to have Sal actually doing some 'science' for once

Super cool GATE drive, and the Octan version cool too, but not as cool as the MANTIS one ;)

I can't take any credit for the GATE drive - I mostly stole it from woofmcmoose

I don't think I've seen a bad build or story from you, ever, and this week is no different! Sal's misadventures are one of AG's funnest things to watch!

The story is great (as is Moose's story that this adds to. I loved that, Moose!) And the scenery is lovely, as always! Great work!

“Moose! Would you care to explain why it has taken you 2 months to get any results on this GATE project when Big Sal has made more progress in just 1 week!"”

"Sir? I wasn't aware Big Sal was working on GATE experiments. Surely he can't have achieved anything in such a short time?"

“It says right here in his dispatch: Experiment G1B05 a success, stable GATE field achieved and target rendered undetectable as planned."”

"Undetectable.....?"

Great build Sal, look forward to your next experiments!
