Trump the military commander of the Twilight Military is demanding an update and proof of health from Raptor on the well being of the Twilight Dynasty's national celebrity Jebediah who they brain washed to fly their space program. Trump declared threats of bombing them if they did not cooperate.

We asked him how he planned to do this when the Twilight Dynasty had yet to develop their own bombs and can't purchase any due to the trade embargo enforced by most other nations on the Twilight Dynasty. Trump would only respond by calling our interview stupid.    

In other news. Twilight Dynasty released photos of their new Luna Explore as seen here.

It's a space craft designed to scout out a suitable location for colonization. The mission will have three Kerbalnauts. Valantine is the pilot and the caption of the mission.

Bill is the engineer and will be responsible for fixing any problems that arise. And Bob is the scientist who will be doing the actual scouting of a suitable location. We managed to get an interview with Zylah Twilight, empress of the Twilight Dynasty. We now take you to Kelsy who is conducting the interview.

Kelsey: "The Luna Explore is the latest and greatest of Twilight Dynasty technology. As I understand it you have done away with a lot of traditional rocket design and in place are using brand new techniques? One of the things the space craft doesn't have is an abort system at any stage of the launch. Why is that?"

Zylah: "Well heavy payload rockets use powerful boosters to take the rocket up but once the fuel is expended they get detached from the sides of the main fuel tank and engine. This is a very dangerous moment in which if just one of the boosters go off course it can easily collide with the rest of the craft causing the whole thing to be destroyed. Our boosters are relegated only to the bottom of the craft leaving very little chance of something going wrong. The risk of anything happening to this rocket is far reduced that those using the traditional methods. In a worse case scenario the crew capsule can detach and parachute down to safety.

The safety of our people is of the utmost importance. The rocket has enough supplies for a four year expedition and we plan on building self sustaining life support long before reaching that point. And even though the mission is not designed for a return trip as the kerbanauts will become a part of the new colony. However in an emergency the landing craft has more than enough fuel to return to the familiar safety of Kerbin."

Kelsey: "The experimental technology and techniques haven't been tested though. The rocket itself hasn't even been tested yet you are sending Kerbals up into it. Three Kerbals who you kidnapped from the Raptors. It seems far more likely to be a disguised execution."

Kelsey hold the mic up to Zylah expectantly. The Empress glares hard at the the interviewer and in the next moment the screen goes black. Moments later a message appears. 'We're sorry but due to technical difficulties our regular broadcast has been canceled.
