interestingly, the other launch site they were considering for the K-1 aside from South Australia was the White Sands missile range in Nevada. Apparently actually a quite good location for overland first-stage recovery.)

the actual paint-swatch value of the habs that I ran through my big stack of filters to simulate titan haze is a -really bright teal-, if you believe it

It's actually just a classic plasma magnet, none of the Q-drive tricks going on. Thrust comes from magbeam-esque particle beam stations in planetary/asteroidal/lunar orbits.

Partly that it makes it a touch harder to reproduce with a normal card printer, partly that if the clock chip breaks (or is desynced or hacked) the offgassing rate of the deuterated patch can be used to loosely constrain the card's proper time (direct sampling of the material can get more accurate)
