gollark: It could launch tiny comsats at several kilometres a second.
gollark: I hope they integrate some sort of on-planet construction method. I once made a Minmus colony with (modded-in) mass drivers and onboard construction stuff.
gollark: It manages to compensate for the horrible design of my vehicles.
gollark: I'm somewhat embarrased to admit that I generally just make mechjeb do my takeoffs.
