Bonjour Mesdames et Mesieurs,
Let me introduce myself, je suis Docteur Charles Lavoisier, a scientist of the Technology and Advancement Division of The Council. I was tasked with initiating a weekly news feed, the Weekly Science, to keep our brave councilors up to date in regard of scientific knowledge and technological advancement. Oui, the main purpose of this channel is to keep you informed about everything new our scientists and engineers are either working on or have already succeeded at researching or developing, be it a minor project or something really big. I have to admit I am not entirely familiar with providing such news feed for such audience as I have never been doing anything similar before, but time - and of course feedback from my readers - will tell how successful I am with this task. I better not waste words more.
I will start with introducing what will be our main base of operations. Few weeks ago the Trade and Supply and the Technology and Advancement Divisions of The Council have initiated a joint project, in which they were tasked to build a common base of operations. Now this space station, namely Le Grande Stockage Fromage, can be located not far from the stationary CLN Pamiers.

While the Trade and Supply Division is tasked with delivering the neccessary resources and supplies, the workers of the Technology and Advancement Division are working on the construction and maintenance. So far a Shield generator have been constructed to ensure the safety of the base, along with a Storage extension, to provide more space for stored supplies. The current population of the station is 200, however this will probably change in the future, as our technicians are working on a general extension of the base. This will provide us more possibilities to construct more advanced modules, which then may increase the number of required of engineers on board.
As you may have noticed, this transmission is being aired from Planet Toulouse yet, but if Le Stockage will be extended, it is planned to move this scientific studio to there as well. Further smaller projects are being worked on as well, an enhanced communication software par example, which I may be able to introduce in the next WS.
Until then, au revoir, mes amis. Lavoisier signing off.

Bonjour mesdames et mesieurs,
A week has passed since the first airing of the Weekly Science, an other week, which was barely uneventful. Surely not for our Division. Par example, you can already notice our brand new communication software with built-in real-time video feed. Now you can see and hear more of me, and hear the latest updates of our technological advancement.
New looks The world is changing non-stop, everything will has to change once. The time of the old transmitter software has ended, and a new one came to replace it. In the past weeks one of the juvenile programmer teams on Marne Academy, namely "Les Fromageurs" has succeeded in upgrading the previous software into a faster and more reliable one. The current software includes a more stable audiovisual streaming, a more complex encryption system, and a way stronger connection.
Congratulations et merci beacoup pour Les Fromageurs*:- Quentin Cours (project leader)

Gathered technology More or less than a month ago word have spread about a plan of the Gallic Corporations, actually about the development of a more resource-efficent defense turret for transports. The idea was basically the production of a turret type with a smaller profile, thus less resource requriement for production. Not much later our intel provided us nothing less than freshly acquired blueprints of said transport turret. During this week our engineers finished our own prototype in the workshops of Toulouse and began testing.

Initial tests indicate significant difference neither in power consummage nor in damage output. It is much like a cheaper version of the previous turret types, however this does not show up in it's current prices yet.
Le Grande Stockage Fromage The Division has recently finished the extension of Le Grande Stockage Fromage. The crew of the station has been doubled as well as the number of laboratories and workstations. The next steps are not so clear yet, some advice the building of a second storage extension, but further research regarding various types of cloaking devices are amongst the plans of the leadership.
Out of the lab The T&AD considers a joint project with the Assault and Security Division. Instead of repairing some combat vessels of gunboat or battletransport type to reassign them in their original duty, our division proposed an idea about refitting some of said vessels for research purposes. It is possible that in the future we will have more opportunities of research due to such science vessels. I hope I will be able to share more information about this matter next week.
Until then, au revoir mes amis.
