<ul><li> | <ul><li>This place is quite extraordinary, and not quite because of the lack of politics involved. The imaging equipment here can see all the way around and into the Walker nebula, including the planets on the very fringes and the systems well within. It allows me to conduct research on the movements of planetary bodies within nebulae without the need for me to pander to a private company or government to finance an expedition. And it's not like this is the only kind of research that is going on here, I practically need to fight my colleagues here for access to the main telescope. We're standing on progressive ground, you and I. The next big discovery in the field of astrophysics is going to come out of this place, I'm sure of it.<p> | ||
</li><hr> | </li><hr> | ||
<li> | <li>I'm one of the people who's observing the movement of the myriad of planetoid objects visible from this place. The base we are currently on is orbitting Herne, which in turn orbits Steinfurt, which is the only major planet in the system -- and because of galactic drift there are many, many comets either currently passing or scheduled to pass through this very system. Steinfurt itself is like a big bull's eye for them. Whoever built Heisenberg skillfully put it in a La Grange point orbit between Steinfurt and its moon so we're quite well protected, but the folks over at the ALG refinery might be in for a bit of a ride... we've tried to contact them already, but I fear they might just brush it away.<p> | ||

<li>I | <li>You know, I came here from Bretonia to escape a boring life on Cambridge... and I have to say: I will probably stay here for a while. There is something really intriguing about Rheinland and its precision and sense of justice. It's so black and white in a way, but then bathed in shades of grey in another. On one side you have the government which tries to desperately preserve order and prosperity in the face of foreign aggressors, an unforgiving economy and rampant civil unrest. On the other hand you have the large revolutionary movements which try to fight for a better tomorrow, and end up justifying their means with the ends. On the outside they seem like just a bunch of pirates with an unclear goal. But these "pirates" tend to stop here often these days, and I've spoken with them enough and heard their arguments to say this: they do make a good point.<p> | ||

<li> | <li>Those little red diamonds that some of the smugglers here bring through... have you ever studied them? They have a very interesting structure and composition, I have never seen anything like it. The lattice is so tightly packed, it interferes with light waves passing through it, almost like a prism. These diamonds could only be formed in extremely high pressure, probably on a carbon planet. Oh, what I would give to be able to inspect that planet...<p> | ||
</li><hr> | </li><hr> | ||
<li> | <li>There's not many places in Sirius like this one. The "scientific forum of freedom" is what they call it on Cambridge. Here I can sit down with my colleagues from Liberty, Rheinland... sometimes even Kusari, and debate on the uses and merits of energy absorption in nuclear fusion, without being charged by my government with "conspiring to create weapons of mass destruction" in the process! Well, at any rate astrophysics is my other passion, and I do need lots of supplies to carry on working with this equipment here. And it's not like I am the only one on this station either. If you know anyone who trades in scientific equipment, do point them here will you?<p> | ||

Freelancers don't belong to any particular faction. They work for themselves, seeking new worlds and systems, glory and fame, money, or just trying to survive in a universe full of dangers. One of the most well-known freelancers is Edison Trent, hero of the Colony Wars (800 AS) and recipient of the Lone Star commendation.
