Details: | Though Renraku's overall interests in the aerospace field are very low, they concluded that in order to compete in the current market, that an orbital platform would be a necessary addition to their list of assets. Nevertheless, the Orion's Belt is little more than a play toy for the megacorporation. Though it is equipped for a broad range of functions, the station's crew has only recently begun to use it for more than just development of highly sensitive software. |
>>>>>[The
most interesting rumor surrounding the Orion's Belt is, of course, the
one about the AI. According to street legend, Renraku is definitely
working on producing a fully functional artificial intelligence (just
like Mitsuhama, Fuchi, Aztechnology, etc.) and they would like nothing
more than for you to believe that the center of the research is the
Renraku arcology in Seattle. However, that project is definitely
being conducted (in full) aboard their orbital. It's the best
possible place for it. No one can steal it. And if the AI loses
its electronic mind, the damage would be minimal.]<<<<<
>>>>>[Unless
it decides to crash the old Belt into a densely populated area.]<<<<<
>>>>>[Actually,
that wouldn't be all that likely. The materials the Orion's Belt is
made of would never survive the reentry. It was built with just
that kind of a catastrophe in mind.]<<<<< >>>>>[And
these I was thinking that they just manufactured a piece-of-shit orbital
b/c they don't have access to good enough tools & materials...]<<<<< |
