We can't send a rescue ship all the way out there, so Aurora, you're just gonna have to meet us halfway.

― Alterra HQ

The Neptune Escape Rocket is an in-development vehicle that will be used to leave Planet 4546B. The blueprint will eventually be found inside the Aurora. It will consist of four constructable parts; the Neptune Launch Platform, the Neptune Gantry, Neptune Stage 1, Neptune Stage 2, and Neptune Stage 3. The  Neptune Launch Platform can be built inside the Mobile Vehicle Bay, while the other four parts are built on the launch platform.

It is not advisable to build the Neptune Launch Platform it during its development stage, as this will consume your materials and not build it.

Description

Neptune Launch Platform

The Neptune Launch Platform is a very large floating barge with ladders on each side. In the middle is a circular indentation where the rocket will sit. On one side will be a terminal used to fabricate the rocket itself, as well as rename and color the rocket. On the opposite side is the rocket gantry (when it is constructed), which has an elevator that will lift the player into the rocket.

The rocket will not launch unless the Quarantine Enforcement Platform has been disabled.

Data Bank Entry

This blueprint set was developed at Alterra headquarters specifically to get you off 4546B and back to the nearest phasegate. It takes into account local gravity, astronomical data and available resources, and is piloted by AI. It consists of five independently constructible elements: Launch Platform: Floating platform provides a solid base from which to launch the rocket Gantry: Provides structural support Stage 1: Primary thrusters for reaching atmosphere escape velocity Stage 2: Secondary thrusters activated in orbit Stage 3: Cockpit Warning: Onboard AI will not launch if local threats are detected.

Future Plans

• The Neptune Launch Platform will be crafted using an Ion Cube Matrix.
• The Neptune Escape Rocket will be released in version 1.0.
