ROV Odysseus 6K. ROV Odysseus 6K is a remotely operated underwater vehicle designed and operated by Pelagic Research Services of South Wellfleet, Massachusetts. The ROV is named for Odysseus, protagonist of the Odyssey, and its maximum rated depth, , measured as metre sea water.

Design
The ROV is launched and recovered using an A-frame crane designed by Hydramec, and is connected to the host through  of umbilical from Fibron. Odysseus 6K is operated from the Odysseus Control Van, a converted  intermodal container, which includes multiple monitors; optionally, the equipment can be brought aboard and operated from an interior room.

There are seven hydraulic thrusters, with four horizontal (lateral) and three vertical. Maximum power output is , measured at the shaft.

The ROV has multiple payload skids that mount to the bottom of the vehicle and are built for specific operations, primarily scientific research, and can include suction and D-samplers. The standard science skid measures  W ×  L ×  H. Trays can be extended using the onboard hydraulic system, and are intended for retrieving samples and/or carrying sensors and/or equipment.

Updates
Pelagic initially purchased the H6500 ROV from Deep Ocean Exploration and Research (DOER Marine) and marketed its services as the Deep Water ROV System, with a rated maximum depth of , in 2015. It was a modular system with a distinctive orange float. In its basic, untested configuration, it was stated to operate to a depth of , limited by winch capacity; additional equipment was required for the deep-diving configuration. H6500 measured  W ×  L ×  H with a mass of  and a maximum payload of . By October 2015, Pelagic had renamed the H6500 to Odysseus. Initial testing of the H6500 configuration failed several functional benchmarks, and Pelagic ceased working with DOER Marine.

Pelagic redesigned and built in collaboration with MPH Engineering a new, single-body ROV system that began sea trials in 2016. As completed in January 2017, the new Odysseus 6k measured  W ×  L ×  H with a mass of , and its maximum depth was de-rated slightly to . The float is now yellow. The updated Odysseus includes a welded aluminum frame that can lift more than  in its payload tray.

Additional updates to equipment and structures have resulted in an increase in the mass, which is now . The yellow float has been retained, and a blue stripe bearing the name Odysseus has been added.

Operating history
ROV Odysseus 6K has been used to survey deep-sea coral on the West Florida slope in 2017.

On June 22, 2023, Odysseus 6K found a debris field left by the catastrophic implosion of the crewed submersible Titan, which had departed from its host ship,  on June 18. Odysseus was operating from . The ROV was later used to recover debris from the wreck of Titan.

Industries of Titan. Industries of Titan is a city-building video game developed by Brace Yourself Games.  Players build a colony on Saturn's moon Titan.  It includes elements of real-time strategy games, but these can be disabled.

Gameplay 
In the future, humanity has colonized Titan, one of Saturn's moons.  Players manage a corporate-controlled colony.  Their colonists consist of citizens, who make money for players by being forced to watch advertisements, and employees, who are drones that perform work.  The ruins of nearby failed colonies can be searched for resources, and once players accumulate enough resources, they can build factories.  Some factories and buildings cause a NIMBY effect or pollute, and cleaning pollution can change Titan's atmosphere, reducing efficiency.  Players also must defend their colony from armed rebels using elements of real-time strategy games, though these attacks can be disabled.  A tech tree allows players to unlock more buildings and options, including spaceships to defend their colony.  A campaign challenges players to gain a seat on the corporate council.

Development 
Additional development was done by the Malaysian company Streamline Studios.  After entering early access in April 2020, Industries of Titan was released on January 31, 2023.

Reception

Early access 
In a review published by Eurogamer, Rick Lane said it has "the potential to be one of the best" management games if it avoids overbroad parody of cyberpunk-themed capitalism.  PC Gamer and Rock Paper Shotgun said that it was very barebones in 2020 and ran out gameplay quickly.  However, they said it had enough potential to be worth watching.  These early versions lacked campaigns or a tech tree.

Release version 
After playing the final release version, PC Gamer wrote that Industries of Titan "starts strong and has some bold ideas", but they felt Brace Yourself Games focused on the wrong gameplay elements by not making the city-building deeper and putting too much effort into the rebel attacks.  Rock Paper Shotgun called it "probably the prettiest strategy game ever" but said it gives the "persistent feeling that it's far less than the sum of its parts".

Jane Hall Johnson. Jane C. Hall Johnson (October 11, 1919 - 2001) was an American engineer and architect. She designed numerous commercial, residential, and institutional developments.

Early life and education 
Jane Hall was born on October 11, 1919, in Maryville, Missouri. She was the second of three daughters born to her parents, both teachers. Shortly after her birth, the family moved to St. Louis, where she attended elementary and secondary school. In 1941, Hall graduated from Missouri University of Science and Technology (then known as the Missouri School of Mines) with a degree in civil engineering. In 1949, she decided to study architecture, and she graduated in 1955 from Harvard University with a Bachelor of Architecture. In 1970, the degree was converted to a Master of Architecture.

Career 
Hall began her career as a structural engineer, performing highway design and aircraft stress analysis for companies such as Nichols Engineering & Research in New York, Boeing in Wichita, Kansas, and Curtiss Wright in St. Louis. She worked as an architect in Boston for various firms between 1955 and 1959, specializing in developing and drawing construction plans. She worked with Manske & Dieckmann and the Missouri architects and urban planners Hammond, Charle & Burns between 1961 and 1963. Her work included developing perspectives, research and design proposals, and construction plans for office and recreational buildings.

Hall returned to St. Louis and married engineer Benjamin Johnson on October 11, 1969. The couple opened their firm together in 1970. They performed residential, commercial, and educational architecture and engineering work for the St. Louis Redevelopment Authority, the Human Development Corporation, and the City of Jefferson Department of Natural Resources, among others.

Between 1975 and 1984, there were more than twenty-five new projects and renovations carried out by Jane Hall Johnson and her husband, mainly public works: the municipal building for Wellston, Montgomery Hyde Park, the playground for the Center for Parents and Children in St. Louis, and the "Hyde Park Village" retirement villas in St. Louis. Hall also completed several residential expansion, remodeling, and new construction projects in St. Louis, photographing many of her projects. Hall's architecture is characterized by the use of volumes and simple lines, which highlight the brick or wood aesthetic typical of North American architecture of the 1980s.

Retirement 
Jane Hall Johnson died in 2001 after retiring in 1997. She maintained her professional licenses in Missouri and Illinois. She was also a member of the American Institute of Architects' St. Louis campus, and her architectural production is represented in the International Archive of Women in Architecture.
