Hi guys, check out my History of Apple. I reproduced the most iconic computers and devices and the most important moments for Apple. I hope you will like it.

From: Major Kartofski To: CEO Raven Subject: Status Report - Project Star-Lord ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We have taken delivery of the package, and work has begun on Project Star-Lord. The work is proceeding quickly. We are currently using the standard Octan mounts for Dr. Gregorovich's propulsion designs - however, due to structural integrity issues caused by design conflicts between Octan and Kawashita conventions, especially when implemented in a dreadnaught-scale vessel, we are currently operating an ancillary project to develop new mount designs of greater practical value. The hull is currently unpainted. We anticipate that Dr. Gregorovich will remain with us for a further week - until that time, only Spyrius equipment and techs are present, as per your orders. Our initial assessment, supported by small-scale tests, indicate that Dr. Gregorovich's work on direct-conversion power sources will provide an immediate 7% increase in power supply capacity in allied vessels if properly implemented. Retrofitting of direct-conversion reactor plants could yield efficiency increases in excess of 45% for dreadnaught-scale vessels or land-based reactor facilities. Benefits will be smaller for smaller vessels, but are expected to remain significant at all output levels. My commendation to the crew and captain of the Variga. Dr. Gregorovich was delivered unharmed and in full health and, as nearly as we can make out, good spirits. How Octan Corporation's scientific community is able to flourish with such ... difficult individuals at its heart is a subject worthy of further study. The design prototypes the Variga delivered were also in sterling condition, and have proven invaluable to the rapid completion of Project Star-Lord. Approximately two weeks of construction remain. Much of the superstructure has been completed, and currently the pace of construction is limited primarily by available surface area for work. After completion of the vessel, approximately two further weeks for trials and testing will be required. You will be notified when the this period commences - we look forward to turning Project Star-Lord over to Kawashita for its shakedown cruise as quickly as possible. The designs you have provided for "flying hand" construction vehicles have been invaluable in this phase of the construction process. While the inclusion of a second thumb is an ... interesting choice, there can be little doubt that much is owed to the versatility of this design. Project Star-Lord is currently running 17.5 hours ahead of schedule, with no major obstructions anticipated. Go forward with honor.

Mission Log: Entry 16 ~ I was interrupted from my meeting by a summons from Kawashita CEO Agent Raven. She had planned to hold a full board meeting showcasing Kawashita's newest invention, the K-420 Z-Class Fighter, but due to previous commitments and ongoing missions, I was the only board member present. Except the most recent addition to the Kawashita High Council, scientist and technological genius Ekira Mitoshi. He was dressed in full mechanic gear, his face covered by a half-mask which hid the dreadful scarring he had received following a factory incident three years prior; the bionic implants which had saved his life were visible beneath his hairline. He greeted both of us with smiles and shook our hands: he preferred not to speak, for some reason.... Agent Raven ushered both of us to the window of the small room and we looked outside. The window opened out into one of the largest hangars on the Hamilton Belt base, the size of a small city with pristine white walls. It had been built specifically for test flights - and that was what we were witnessing. A salvaged Octan ship, flown by an AI to prevent any damage to humans, was circling the hangar, shooting furiously at a smaller, red ship which darted around the ceiling, dodging the attacks. It was the Z-Class, a new make of ship specifically designed to appear vulnerable and slow to opponents. In fact, it was anything but. This was the face of the new Kawashita fleet and an ambassador of our future in Andromeda... Without minifigs/ships: The cast: Ekira Mitoshi, Dragonfire and Agent Raven. The two ships:

:: Technology Prospecting :: After our visit to Crentium together with the Terrestrians, they offered me to teach us the basics of prospecting for a small fee. I consulted with the board and we agreed on a payment in resources. 1800 ounches of awesomnium, 700 gallons of water and 500 ounches of biomass. A large hauler brought the payment to a moving spacestation of the Terrestrial, where they took me also. The leader took me to a research facility where they hooked me up to a device. When the lights started to blink and a buzzing sound filled the helmet on my head, my brain started to tingle. Only minutes later I stepped out of the chair. They were able to tap the knowledge directly into my memory. Back in my quarters I wrote the whole technology onto my pad and sent it to the Kawashita Group library and academy.
