Strip 393 -- First Seen: 2010-03-15
Escape From Terra is updated with new pages every Monday through Friday.

QV on a short break

QUANTUM VIVE is taking a break for a few weeks, as we prepare for Part 2 of the Novo Palermo story, and also for a Kickstarter campaign for Part 1, which will start in September.

In the meantime, Not-Safe.Space will continue, as a murder mystery begins and the relationship between Eithne and Diana develops in unexpected directions.

Not-Safe.Space is a NSFW strip but more than half the pages are SFW so I've set those to *not* require a Patreon membership. Readers should be able to follow the story without seeing the NSFW pages. If I've done this right.

Kickstarter successful and closed

The Kickstarter campaign for Not-Safe.Space Chapter 3 concluded successfully on April 21, and Scott extended the time allowed for late pledges until May 19.

Books have been ordered from the printer and Scott will be spending the next week or so setting up and sending the PDF files to those who asked for them.

(There are still six of you who have not responded to the survey asking for e-mail and snail-mail addresses, he'll do the best he can.)

Thanks to all for supporting this Kickstarter!

The Transcript For This Page

Panel 1
Doris and Fiorella facing the Screen. Now Doris is speaking.

'Doris: One question, Mike …

Doris: SkyLand is in the Sun-Earth Lagrange point.

Panel 2
Medium close-up of Doris (Fiorella may be in the frame).

Doris: Objects in Lagrange points tend to migrate within a teardrop-shaped volume of space.

Doris: How does SkyLand manage to keep the hundreds of objects that comprise it from colliding?

Panel 3
Looking past one of the girls at the Screen, which is showing an orbital diagram of the Park, with Hollow Earth in the center and the other Lands arrayed in orbits around it.

Mike: Hollow Earth is the most massive object in SkyLand. The other six Lands have been set in orbit about it.

Panel 4
The Screen: Black Rock and its orbing Belt are highlighted.

Mike: Each of the Lands has a central massive object around which the other objects revolve, much like moons.
