The Planetary Landmass of Pax Nerdvana

Pax flips several switches. Engines are green. We are a go for take off. Pax eases up on the throttle, and pulls the stick back. The shuttle takes off, and Pax eases it out of the shuttle bay.
Hexior, get the bay doors closed. Howard, run a planetary scan.

Aye sir. Do I call you sir? Imma gonna call your Paxy-boy.

He types some stuff into the console, presses some buttons and flips some levers before imitating a planetary scan. He waits a few seconds as it scans and, once he has the results back, He pulls up the results from last time and speaks once more.

Let’s see, no major changes. The population seems to be around the same. It also seems there is a some sort of virus spreading around it. Probably not super safe. More pollution.
Other then that, not much else. I hacked the newsfeed and it appears tensions are escalating with the nations of India and China and North and South Korea. I safe we take caution.

He then begins to play galaga on the console.

Bay doors closed, CONclave should be fine for a bit.

We'll set down in a desert somewhere. I'm thinking Nevada or New Mexico. Anyone have a preference? Pax points at the map that's onscreen.

Hexior turns to look at Pax
Why that continent? Scans are showing unrest, and a divided leadership.
What about this desert?
Hexior points to a point on the map labeled "Sahara"

Nevada. Seems to be some kind of “Area 51” place. I’m getting lots of weird readings from it. Life signs different from other sentient beings. Weird chemicals. All that.

Scans show that that place is a desert hellhole. Burning hot during the day, freezing cold during the night. We could land their though.

Sahara it is. I was half-hoping we could panic the local populace into thinking we are invaders...

We just simply land near a local village and we turn the emitters off. Good fun all around

Have you ever checked the datafiles on my kind? We live for hellholes.

I can function almost anywhere. I wonder if the natives would find us terrifying.

Affirmative. Humans do not like seeing things that have more than 4 limbs, and I have 7.

OOC: There was a Summer Sale on Steam so there was a whole bunch of games on sale. I got KSP for just 10 bucks, really the only game I cared about. Is it bad that I can't build a rocket to save my life? The only rocket that I got to space was air launched from a plane (at least I can build planes), and it's completely dead because I didn't put on it solar panels that tracked the Sun.

There is some atmosphere which we still have to enter, but we are right above the parking spot.
