"Fra Angelico" should be italicized as it is elsewhere in the article.

Void Factory

Suggestion:
the statement

It is unknown when the first Sixth Singularity void factory was put into operation.

might be augmented to be

It is unknown when the first Sixth Singularity void factory was put into operation, but it must have been well before the mid-7200s, when the High Road became available for Nexus travel.

as mentioned in

High Road, The


A link to the High Road article probably would be appropriate, too.

p.s. Other constraints on the date doubtless could be developed from other articles e.g. when Black Angels were first seen in warfare.

Changed as suggested. Todd, since you're the author of this & related articles you might want to make further tweaks to coordinate them.

Fixed along with some other editing issues. This article needs more work, but I am out of time & will have to come back to it.
487 should be 488.

487 - The Tsiolkovsky arrives at Tau Ceti.

http://www.orionsarm.com/eg-topic/45b2b1a3d9417

Arriving in 488 a.t. following a year's deceleration, the Tsiolkovsky established contact with the neumann probes and made several wide survey passes of the system. It went into Nova Terra orbit and the crew immediately went about setting up a laser link and using the materials mined by the neumanns to establish a giant microwave/ radio station, the double of one set up in cis-Lunar orbit, as well as setting up a large orbital base above Tau Ceti III. A scouting party sent down to the surface discovered an abundance of complex molecules but no life; the world was considered perfect for terraforming.

Its happening again. The system won't let me edit my post after I posted.

EDIT: Nevermind, the choice to make it a quick or full edit is just appeared off in the corner of the screen

It only happens when I zoom into the screen.
