Kwajalein

Kwajalein is an atoll in the Marshall Islands.

Although a restricted US Department of Defense missile research and testing site, and not accessible to the general public, Kwajalein is home to around 1,800 Americans who live and work there. There is a fully functioning community including a bank, post office, shops, schools and a small hospital, as well as buildings and installments to support the US military mission.

Get in

By plane

Access to the island is restricted to active-duty US military personnel and civilian contractors with proper orders, although it is possible to travel there as a dependent of a person in either of these categories.

United Airlines flies to Chuuk, Guam, Honolulu, Kosrae, Pohnpei, and Majuro from the local airfield. Air Marshall Islands also services the airport. Civilian passengers on commercial flights are transported to and from the neighboring island, Ebeye.

Get around

By car

Rental cars are not available to general public, and no taxis are on island. Residents may rent Quality of Life vehicles for hourly or daily use but most island transport is encouraged to be by foot or bicycle. There is a transport van available for passengers disembarking for Ebye to carry them from the airport to the Ferry dock.

gollark: 1. I'm lazy (though yes, admittedly, you probably are)2. It'd be slower to manually find the slot(s) with free space.
gollark: How about a table of slots moved into?
gollark: Can it? Huh.
gollark: Specific use case: Wyvern internally uses a quick method to search its index for free space - `#items < inventories[name].size()` on each inventory - manually searching slots would be slow and kind of annoying, so currently the index for a chest is just entirely updated whenever an item is inserted, which is slow.
gollark: <@237328509234708481> Could you make plethora item transfer (pushItem etc) return the slot moved to as well as the items moved?
