Um um

Learning from the previous flight profiles of the Elysium, Certain adjustments to the

thrusters would be replaced with a new form of thruster which extensively lightens the

fuel load. The final piece of the Ramjet would be attached to the wings, enabling a

better fuel consumption profile from the SSTO in general.

Following the launch of the 'Snowfall' module - part of the new Lupus 0 station.

creation of the next launch participles would emerge. Two modules actually, the first -

known as the Amber Quartet - a specific chamber for science equipment and basic tool

commodities such as compartments for wiring and digital resources. Amber Quartet would

be the main module or rather the 'heart' of the spacecraft. Initially, most of the

Quartet will be filled to the brim with supplies and basic docking tubes + packed

equipment, thus making it not possible to be manned. Most modules of the Amber quartet

as packed tightly before the future missions would launch to actual manned mission to

the space station. The next module would be known as the EFS Docking module. This would

be the centerpiece of the station as this is where most future compartments will be

docked at. The EFS Docking Module would also act as a functional airlock in the case of

emergencies. EFS contains in total 4 docking ports, including a fifth which is to

eventually be appropriated to the systems main Solar panels fairings. Due to the cost

of launching the EFS independantly from the aging Delphi and Flagship ATS programs, it

was determined to instead - launch the EFS together with the Amber Quartet. This is to

enable a more efficient launch profile, at the expense of pushing the Elysium to

maximum weight.

The launch of the Elysium ATS27 proved to be wholly successful, using the new joint

system securing the Spacecrafts within, the crew was more then capable of safely

detaching the EFS and Amber Quartet module from the Flight chambre. Following small

proceedures, the hands of the Quartet was handed over to ground control which piloted

the spacecraft safely on course towards the Lupus 0 space station. A controlled docking appears, however- a glitch in the system caused the spacecraft to dock at 0,1 m/s too fast. It was determined that there was no damage caused. As of now, all locks except the interlocking between ETS and the Amber Quartet are closed. And currently, only the Snowfall module is fully pressurized. The Amber Quartet is expected to be pressurized in the coming days.
