Strip 308 -- First Seen: 2009-11-18
Escape From Terra is updated with new pages every Monday through Friday.

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!

Not-Safe.Space Kickstarter!

UPDATE to the UPDATE: The problem has been solved, all rewards are now available. I've extended the campaign an extra day, to April 21. Thanks for bearing with me!

UPDATE: There has been some strange glitch in the Kickstarter launch, so Scott is cancelling the campaign temporarily and will re-start as soon the cause of the problem can be determined and corrected.

Scott is gearing-up for his third Not-Safe.Space Kickstarter campaign!

(Not-Safe.Space is Scott's sexy spin-off of QUANTUM VIBE.)

For those of you who haven't signed up for one of the NSFW Patreon tiers, this will be the best way to get in on the action for a very reasonable price.

Go to THIS link. The campaign starts March 16 and runs through April 20.

The Transcript For This Page

Panel 1
Two-shot of Reggie and Peña.

Reggie: Possibly I am insane, but 4 percent is the current figure.

Reggie: Call up the log on your network and see for yourself.

Panel 2
Looking over Peña's shoulder as he looks at a list of numbers (too small for us to see) on his desk holo-monitor. We can see just enough of his face to show he's astonished.

Peña: How … how is this possible?

Panel 3
Medium shot of Reggie.

Reggie: The Array sits atop a huge methane clathrate field. It remains stable because of the extreme cold in winter and the permafrost in summer.

Reggie: The Array is powered by fusion reactors. And how do those reactors dump excess heat?

Panel 4
Medium shot of Peña sitting back in his chair, looking a bit contrite as it dawns on him where this is going.

Peña: We sunk long metal rods a hundred meters into the underlying regolith to act as heat exchangers.

Peña: Apparently they are doing their job and then some.
