Make yourself at home in the rolling hills and plains of the UFIPA’s Gek capital, Ifortc Tau, a classified Eden world and home to the Capitol! Found in the Edrovozd system of the Isdoraijung galaxy, Ifortc Tau is a vibrant world home to unnaturally high levels of bovine fauna, among their ranks being G. Fonzkaunium, a flying variant of the more common Ungulatis genus. Though the Discovery Menu states that Ifortc Tau experiences 'Deadly Pressure Variations', the weather is in fact totally clear year round, and poses no threat to any under-equipped Travellers who may find themselves here.

During your visit head over to @cosmordial's base, Xenobiologist's Outpost as well as the Prometheus Collective's embassy base for a breathtaking view of the surrounding valleys, mountains, forests and the Capitol itself.

SCIENCE STRIKES AGAIN!

Flora have once again undergone drastic changes in little time

by Iteration: Ke'nuun 22 July, UFIPA Iteration 3

The native flora of numerous planets, including Synthetic capital Habri Delta and Gek capital Ifortc Tau, have once again changed their physical appearance completely in an incredibly short time period.

Scientists claim that though plantlife on all affected worlds appears completely different, the genetic makeup is similar - it was not another flash extinction, however this time there is no clear evidence indicating the true reason for these changes.

Some speculate another atmospheric change, though there is currently no evidence to support this theory. More eccentric citizens preach 'the end of the universe as we know it', but authorities have waved off these conspiracies with ease.

[ufipa]

[korvax404] decided to make some 'travel poster' style posters for some of the capital planets - what do y'all think? I thought it'd be fun to include the phonetics too, since there was some dispute between myself and DOOMCREW56 about the pronunciation of some planets' names.

This is just a prototype, so if anyone thinks there's any additional info I should include, please say! I'm always open to suggestions when it comes to graphic design + promotional stuff. So far I've made posters for Yecoreumata Uitam, Ciush, Odst IV and have a draft saved for the Edrovozd system as a whole, which I'll post as well as these if they catch on :D

RATUS-GONE OAKEO

Former Synth capital reduced to muddy wasteland

by Iteration: Ke'nuun 17 July 2024, UFIPA Iteration 3

Scientists are baffled by a catastrophic temperature change on former Synthetic capital, Ratuscont Oakeo. We interviewed Head Xenobiologist Aether on-site.

"One of our Governors arrived at the Capital Planet to find its climate completely changed. Ratuscont Oakeo was initially chosen as a Capital for its slightly chilly temperatures– a perfectly comfortable temperature for those with mechanical components.

However, it appears to have undergone some sort of cataclysmic warming event, resulting in the melting of subterranean permafrost and ancient glaciers. This released large amounts of moisture into the soil and atmosphere, along with unleashing pathogens that were once frozen in the ice.

I have personally been hearing reports of similarly scaled events happening across the galaxy. Despite my knowledge of the patterns throughout the universe, I never ever experienced anything quite like this. None of us could’ve predicted this, and I believe the cause may remain lost to us.

Losses aside, I find this quite exciting! I have hope that we’ll be able to find a new Capital, as well as opening the door to new possibilities in exploration and discovery!"

-Head Xenobiologist Aether

Since the interview, all residents of the (now toxic) former paradise world have been ordered by the Governors to evacuate to a nearby moon of planet Hogat 95/I4 (also referred to as Hogat 48/I9), Habri Delta.

This moon is slightly humid, though poses otherwise ideal climate properties for settlers.

Make yourself at home in the rolling hills and plains of the UFIPA’s Synthetic capital, Ratuscont Oakeo! Located in the Zuwaji-Sobelp VI system of the Isdoraijung galaxy, Ratuscont Oakeo is a serene, almost entirely blue paradise world. Among the native fauna are A. Nipkudetum, a docile bonecat species (genus Osteofelidae) that spend their days roaming the flora-dense hills of Ratuscont Oakeo searching for algae, and their nights lighting up the darkened landscape with spots of bioluminescence. The only downside to this planet is the lack of water and trees, but if you don't mind a perfectly unobscured view of the sky and totally dry carapace, you'll feel right at home among the grasses and grain of Ratuscont Oakeo!

Whilst you're there, be sure to check out @cosmordial's base, Highgrass Cabin, for a stunning view of the landscape and amenities such as an outdoor seating area and glass-walled study.

FOUNDATION DAY CANCELLED

The UFIPA's first annual holiday has been cancelled due to current events

by Iteration: Ozhark 18 July 2024, UFIPA Iteration 3

The UFIPA's first Foundation Day - a would-be annual holiday - has been cancelled in light of recent events. First Governor [//] (nicknamed noomintroll) enlightens us on the situation.

"The disastrous consequences of recent galaxy-wide 'glitches' - which we are referring to as a 'Reset' - have caused much disarray among our citizens, especially those who called former Synthetic capital Ratuscont Oakeo home - so instead of hosting a large-scale event, the day will be spent rebuilding on our new Synthetic capital planet, or should I say, moon, to allow citizens to gather their bearings.

The event has not been 'cancelled', just altered slightly - next year, Foundation Day will be held as planned, alongside a new event to remind us of all that we have lost."

They later elaborated on the 'new event', coining it Rejuvenation Day, which "will be spent remembering all that was lost in the Reset, and celebrating how we rebuilt."

We could not reach Shadow Guard Tempest, Second Governor Tedral (nicknamed DoomCrew), or Third Governor AM-13 for their opinions on the matter.

What is the UFIPA?

The UFIPA - or, United Federation of Interstellar and Planetary Anomalies - is a player civilisation in the sci-fi exploration game No Man’s Sky.

We seek to gather a group of Travellers who share our interest in exploration, documentation and Sentinel Hunting to help build a community that will, hopefully, one day reach Hub status.

Though the wiki states a particular set of motives, our civ is governed mainly by our citizens, and we hope to deviate from our original incentive to something that our community as a whole has shaped and tailored to fit the needs of everyone within it.

Demolishing a moon, for science!

We've decided to demolish a moon (for science)!

This means digging up a moon until there is no more moon to be dug (or until the undiggable ground under terrain is reached).

Will update with glyphs when a suitable moon is found.
