I have a bachelors degree in astrocomputation, but feel like I'm not really contributing just working these guild transport contracts. Plus my space recruiter says after three years, I can apply to be a veritech pilot. I'm thinking about enlisting in the space force, y/n?

My dude if you weren’t in another system I’d put you in touch with my recruiter. He got me a sweet deal where I’m currently enlisting on an open general contract, but he says that within two years I’ll be eligible to go for the 180X program, and from there, I should be a great candidate for Omega Force selection.

Don't fall for it. Space Force recruiters are the used spaceship salespeople of the space military.

After we arrived on Deimos, still groggy from the transport sedation, I activated my Facebook hand terminal to read a "Dear John" letter from my AIT girlfriend who had instead received orders to Luna.

Subsequent messages detailed her engagement, marriage, and births of her children.

8 year travel orders are a real bitch.

You'll have privates in space, they'll find new and creative ways to kill themselves before you pass the moon on your way to Mars. Pvt. Shmuckatelli sucked out the air lock because he thought he could crack it to suck out this cigarette smoke. SPC Murphy took a nap in a reactor room and now it smells like a pig roast in there.

Honestly, jacking it in space till you froze in place/suffocated with your rear end hanging out and your hand gripping your dick till you fell into some gravity well would be a good way to go. You could be like that forever, long after mankind has died and the gay space clones that replaced us go the way of gay space clones, the very earth itself would be eaten by the life giving sun and you could still be out there mooning existence and giving yourself a handy.

It is true, I don't know if it's because time is all fucky in space but it's to a degree noticeable by on board clocks. Also never let the art world live down how a dick snuck in by a dude working for the government was the first piece of extra terran art. Never.

Times not funky in space, but it is different for geostationary satellites yeah. The speed difference isn't significant but they're apparently far enough out of the gravity well that it makes a difference. The real weird part about computers in space is how they need lots of redundancies and shielding because high energy photons can flip bits in memory and cause crashes and stuff

I'm going to classify that as the first space base memorial, as I like a cock and balls being the first thing drawn by humanity outside it's own planet.
