Apologies to all the aliens on board, the ship was designed with humans in mind, so you may find your tentacles don't fit well in certain places.

This is going to sound really bad but could we have separate drinking fountains for humans and aliens? Because I saw X'öhr put his proboscis in the drat thing

Good news everyone! The flip went off without a hitch, and we are now slowing down to prepare for orbital insertion at Callisto in about 6 months.

Big shoutout to the engineering teams for this success. As a celebration, tomorrow night will be pizza and beer night in the Cafe! 18:00 start time. And after, we'll have some live music and games in the Lounge!

hmm, news broadcast is saying the new congress canceled our mission and redirected funding to the loving mars colony. again.

looks like we have permission to continue on to callisto, but they're telling us not to bother coming back because there won't be any mission control to talk to us by the end of the fiscal year.

ah well, i'd still vote for 'em again. i'm VERY serious about gas stove back home.

The fools! One of our primary missions is to establish a water terminal to supply water to Mars and all the outposts in the Belt.

If we tore the Callisto station apart for fuel we could probably visit the Mars station hard enough to wipe it off the planet.

Announcement: it turns out that parachute silk isn't terribly absorbent and so it isn't much good as a bathroom wipe after all. In its stead, we suggest wiping with your extra socks.

People (and I refer to the non-humans as people too, since we're all just folks)! We didn't travel all this way to give up! We have a mission to accomplish and we're close to starting!

As for TP, there's plenty in storage, you just need to make a requisition request.

Also, the janitorial staff should have already taken care of that. Will have to review at our next Staff meeting.

We've got some plants with big soft sturdy leaves in the greenhouses, but I'd rather it not come to that kind of TP shortage (why don't you people use the bidet function in the 'fresher, for God's sake?). The guinea pigs really enjoy running around in the shade and such.

Welcome to our new non-human crew mates and friends - feel free to come by and pet the guinea pigs!

Hey so I just thought I'd mention how we're nearing the jungle research outpost on the planet Arachnor in the Ominis System where my heretofore unmentioned Older Brother is stationed.

We haven't heard from the colony in a few weeks, they were very excited about some critters they'd found but then started having comms issues.

Anyway I'm sure everything is fine but it would be good to catch up with Older Brother, who is a hero to me. It's only a few light years out of our way and the crew has been asking for more shore leave after the Terror Vortex last week.

Agreed. He'll have to be content with a video message to the Ominus System. We're here to do work on Callisto.

Speaking of, Mission Specialist simulation training today from 13:00 - 16:00. Mandatory attendance.
