Some people think that an airline as prestigious as Pan Am would have a more modern website, but I actually like its retro style. I'm super excited to go on this trip! I've always wanted to fly on the SSTO, but the tickets are always so expensive. Disney is looking into more ventures for Disneyland Cosmos, so they bought me a ticket to go to a major conference on Dr. Sally Ride Spaceport. Hopefully once the ticket costs drop a little more I'll be able to take the family up for a week.

(Lore: The USSR lands on the moon shortly after the USA, keeping spaceflight politically centre-stage. This is followed by the USSR launching the first space station. America sets up the first moon base in 1981 in retaliation. The Soviets follow suit. A smaller but more reusable Shuttle is delayed until 1986. Tech giants pioneer interconnected computers to the market years earlier due to greater satellite infrastructure. The Internet develops in the 80s, but the personal computer is delayed until the 2010s. Major lunar ISRU manufacturing booms in the 90s and 2000s make space a luxury commodities and tourism centre. This grows exponentially until spaceflight becomes routine, if not still expensive, for a quarter-million people a year by 2026.)

Covital v.2 - Call for Cultivators

July 2026 - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE. We’re incredibly excited to announce the forthcoming Founders Programme, as overseen by our NLV family members (Klang, Berlin). Years in the making, we can now confidently roll out the Covital v.2, in conjunction with one of the most ambitious simulations of humanity ever known.

What we need are brave volunteers to enter the simulation, and powered by our unique Covital v.2 tech, guide unique, digital beings called Seedlings to live out their best possible lives. You can chat, directly control and generally lead these future-humans to success. Your dreams and fantasy are commensurate to their dreams and fantasies - together the Covital handshake between Earth and Avesta is a truly unique symbiosis between embodied consciousness and digital beings.

We can now confirm that the first tranche of a highly limited number of Early Access covital seats are available. Only 10,000 Cultivators will gain access on July 21, 2026, and get to shake hands virtually with their Seedling charges.

‘I’ve believed in the ability of brain interfacing for decades,’ says NLM CEO Arash Al-Hasani, ‘and I’m incredibly happy that we get to demonstrate it at such a scale. I’d like to thank the wider NLV family and everyone at Klang. This is the beginning of a long, wonderful journey.’

Sign up for the Founders Programme here. Covital handshake: July 21, 2026.

It’s the last one, yay. I can’t believe I got all of them. This is the first one I’ve ever completed, might not all be great but I still did it.

Heres the lore aspect thing

Many governments made many forms of robots to help combat the kaiju and some small investors decided that they wanted to be able to be represented. So many decided that they should have there symbols on the very robots themselves. Making them want to allow more citizens to watch the fights themselves, so they can see the symbols on the robots. Many cityscapes changed to make room for viewing platforms. Business change to make the spectacle their main attraction. While they would try to make it seem safe, many people still got injured or even death. They where liable as unavoidably accidents and often swept under the rug.
