Just seeing that IFT 3 is now listed as next Thursday morning.

They have done a wet dress rehearsal.  Fueling was done in something like 49 minutes and they think the upgrades that they have done will get that down to 42 minutes.  That is for BOTH stages at the same time.

Info on IFT2.  The booster explosion was due to a Raptor exploding as a result of insufficient oxygen flow through a filter.

The O2 dump from the Starship caused multiple explosions that seem to have severed sensor connections resulting in the engine shutdown. 

The recent lander on the moon that fell over landed off target on a 12 degree slope which probably contributed to it falling. 

The JAXA lunar lander that also landed badly but which had some solar power allowing it to complete some missions survived the lunar night (it wasn't designed to) and is back in communication and continuing to function.

Star Fleet Battles Volume 3.

Two old Texas class light cruisers were converted into hospital ships, renamed Sanctuary & Refuge. These are the F-CLH in SFC.

I use somebody else's Texas class F-CL model as the F-CLH.

This is all I find on the forums on the details of the CLH…but any photos would be helpful.

According to the SFB Master Ship Time Line, the CLH was introduced in Y140, or in SFC terms, 2240.

From Module R2:

"Two old-stlye (Texas Class) light cruisers were converted for use as hospital ships (NCC 948 Refuge and NCC 949 Sanctuary). They were intended for peacetime use in fighting plagues and other natural disasters. Being built in warship hulls (albeit old ones), they could reach the scene of any outbreak within the fraction of the time needed by Auxiliary Hospital Ships."

Sure. Wanna post some pictures so I can see what the CLH is suppose to look like. Maybe a link or something. Thanks.

I dig it a lot.  I've never been a fan of tri-nacelle ships but I like the angled look.
Best not to play as the Mirak (AKA the Kzinti) because they just love tri-nacelle ship designs.....

Looks fine.

Maybe you could do a CLH refit version to replace the game's stock (wrong) F-CLH model.

it's a vast improvement; I like the curves added to the fore section, and the aft section being less of just a cylinder. IMHO the POL was a slap-together affair from the old SFB days. Nice work

That was Tar, he wanted the nacelles at 60 degrees and poof it came out spectacular. Working on the Police Cutter now, trying to get the angles right. Not a fan of the original designs, just blocky but hopefully the revision will make it worthy.
Btw I activated your profile at my site.
