The Institute of Galactic Exploration and Research [IGER] would like to put themselves forward as the launching / departure point for all future expeditions out to the Jaques Bubble by providing the following.
A good location at the top of the current bubble.
The major food and trade hub in the area.
A non political group dedicated to acquiring knowledge and sharing it with the rest of humanity.
[video=youtube;ZRT-vPKEP7g]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZRT-vPKEP7g[/video]
With that in mind, we would like to form a highway between Kippax Ring in the current bubble and a new location in the new Jacques bubble to build a new beacon of civilisation out in the black of deep space.
With that in mind we propose the construction convoy / fleet as outlined below to generate a new research base in the Jaques bubble and having the means for other groups whom would like to Emigrate to have the means top construct there own base using the construction convoy / fleet.

Separate missions will transport people to the EOL PROU Nebula to help with repairs to Jaques if needed and other construction projects and to build up the population.

Gather more resources to construct more ships through a shipyard.
Description:-
Harvest metals from the local systems and deliver them to (Enter player's name for the base) to construct a shipyard for ship repairs and construction, any materials gathered over the required amount will be added to the storage bins for use by the construction convoy on their next target.

Frontier Note:- The construction convoy / fleet used for this series of community goals and to build this base, could be used to build other planetary bases or to work on space stations afterwards if you wish (I think it would be best for planetary bases as that is what it would have been designed for.
The idea being that, the construction convoy starts at Kippax ring in HIP 72043 system (Current bubble) then moves to the new system (construction project 1), and after building the research base starts the series of community goals again but using the research base as the starting point for example:-
Status of the construction convoy.
Start Kippax ring - Stop Explorers Rest (IGER / FGE)
Start Explorers Rest - Stop Project B system (Different Group / Minor faction) 2nd Group.
Start Project B system - Stop project B system (Different Group / Minor faction) 3rd Group.
Each project can be ran by a different group that is moving out to the new bubble, with resources funneling along the highway from IGER & Kippix Ring to the new Research base and then spreading out in many directions.
*********************************************************
I have heavily used IGER for creating the construction convoy / fleet, but as you can see it has been designed to be available and passed onto different groups to come out and use to construction convoy / fleet to create a place for themselves, and to build the new bubble.
Sort of passing the torch and moving the ownership of the construction convoy to the community. although hopefully we will have multiple groups working with this from the beginning as it is to big for one single group.
I am calling for the exploration community to get behind this proposal.
A good location at the top of the current bubble.
The major food and trade hub in the area.
A non political group dedicated to acquiring knowledge and sharing it with the rest of humanity.
