• Rose/Miros says, "can you slop the universal bricks stuff into the discussion page and

i'll tidy it up?" <snip>

• Strangelv is working on a replacement {sds}MarsDrive{eds}for Marspedia. There have

been no contributions since he deleted the existing article for being a copyright violation

• Strangelv says, "well previously existing acticle"
• Rose/Miros says, "lol"
• Strangelv sees there's still a bunch of stuff from Lunarpedia that needs to be

brought over to Marspedia. Like virtually all of the stub tags...

• Strangelv sticks to plain old {sdc}Stub{edc}as one template to port over is plenty

for him at the moment

• Strangelv: http://www.marspedia.org/index.php?title=MarsDrive
• Strangelv says, "In many ways, it looks like a Martian Artemis Society

International"

• Rose/Miros says, "MASI?"
• Rose/Miros says, "that would be a good universal brick name"
• Rose/Miros says, "lol"
• Strangelv says, "Modular Analogue Structural ..."
• Strangelv says, "..."
• Strangelv says, "Infrastructure?"
• Rose/Miros says, "ook, good one"
• Strangelv says, "Sounds too Dilbertian, though"
• Strangelv says, "Modular Analogue seems pretty good though"
• Strangelv says, "Modular Analogue [insert something here] Modeling?"
• Rose/Miros says, "http://www.marspedia.org/index.php?title=Multi-layered_dome_settlement

oooh, lookie!"

• Strangelv says, "Problem: it's a dome"
• Strangelv says, "Seriosu problem"
• Rose/Miros says, "we were talking about using universal bricks with an inflatable

inside"

• Strangelv says, "Use them for a rounded foundation?"
• Rose/Miros says, "one thing in the chat i lost was to make the bricks concave on one

side..."

• Strangelv says, "Yes, to be used to get the roucgh form of a pressure structure

inside its rectangular form"

• Strangelv says, "Possible way to show this in the commercial product: make the

blocks clear except for the interior -facing sides?"

• Rose/Miros says, "that's making the blocks overly complicated..."
• Rose/Miros says, "http://www.marspedia.org/index.php?title=Arch_segments"
• Strangelv hmms.
• Strangelv says, "So you make a cylinder, dow do you install the rounded ends?"
• Rose/Miros says, "you're thinking too hard"
• You tickle Strangelv, giving no quarter.
• Strangelv says, "Doh."
• Strangelv says, "Three types"
• Strangelv says, "Square, cylindrical, and spherical"
• Strangelv says, "The Lunar Habitat comes with X bricks, Y connectors, and two

colonists. Regolith not included."

• Strangelv tries to figure out the spherical. They're probably not going to be

consistent in size

• Rose/Miros says, "i'm thinking triangular for the spherical"
• Rose/Miros says, "giant buckyball"

<snip>

• Strangelv says, "Buckminster Geodesic. Thank you."
