| Disaster at the Curiosity Space Center! | |
| The "Redrock" class rocket exploded at launch later today. While | |
| the immediate cause of the explosion is unknown, investigations | |
| and cleanup has already begun. The President had this to say: | |
| [quote]A great tragedy struck our Space Program today, this was | |
| supposed to be our first step into Space, it is now an important | |
| reminder of the need of quality control in our industry and | |
| production sectors. We cut corners in developing these rockets | |
| and we have surely paid the price for it, I will personally | |
| enact stricter quality controls to ensure that this would never | |
| happen again.[/quote] | |

| Enduranca sends their condolences about the failure of the | |
| rocket, but takes the opportunity to remind the region that | |
| "spaceflight is difficult... we are doing our best here, but | |
| sometimes it just doesn't work. But that doesn't mean we give | |
| up. We just keep going." | |
| Assistance with cleanup and accident investigation is offered, | |
| and the North Columbia Launch Facility is offered for temporary | |
| launches- payloads can be delivered to the nation, then launched | |
| via Icarus rockets. | |

| After several days of cleanup, and another construction of yet | |
| another "Redrock" rocket the launch was successful and the | |
| rocket successfully made it into the Mesosphere, the extreme | |
| temperature of the Mesosphere froze the right side of the rocket | |
| and only one of its auxiliary parachutes was deployed in time, | |
| however the rocket suffered only minor damage open landing. The | |
| launch has been rated a success by Enduracan observers and | |
| Turkducken scientific officials. Three more launches are | |
| planned, and expected only to confirm the results of the | |
| precious launch. | |

| The ESA confirms the successes of the rocket flights, and | |
| congratulates Turkducken with their successes. | |
| The ESA has taken their knowledge from their Starshine space | |
| station and delivered a proposal for both agencies to create a | |
| larger, permanently inhabited space station- called project | |
| SURTSEY. | |

| The ESA proposes the following design for a station, for now | |
| codenamed SURTSEY: | |

| Sentry and ARTEMIS rockets will be used to launch each module, | |
| to be assembled in orbit. Soyuz capsules will transport crews, | |
| and unmanned versions will deliver supplies. | |
