Greetings, High Command!
I'm pleased to inform you that our commercial results here at Reincarnation have reached a satisfactory level. That said, our location makes it hard to find for clients. There's hardly a day where I don't receive a report from our patrol forces that they've had to lead a ship to our location, or that the captain of said ship was completely unaware of our existence. As such, I provide the following proposal:
Our engineers at Tripoly informed me that an orbit-correction can be easily achieved using externally-mounted, Praefect-class thrusters. Given the station current mass and desired the burn would take roughly 53 hours, consuming one thousand units of fuel per hour. As for the location I propose the following location, on the same altitude as the excavation zone, near the atmospheric entry point:
It should be within visual range for all ships descending into the atmosphere, without affecting any ships simply passing through. If approved, I'll commission the thrusters to be sent from Tripoly and await shipments of MOX fuel. We already have around 10 thousand units stocked on the base, but that fuel is reserved for keeping the shield online in case of an attack, and as such, will not be used for this project. We will be ready to begin once we have 63.000 units of MOX loaded onto the base. Looking forward to your response.
