Magnetoplasmadynamic thruster

A **magnetoplasmadynamic (MPD) thruster** is a propulsion system which consumes electricity and propellant to produce thrust. It produces less thrust than a resistojet, but can produce much higher exhaust velocities. This makes MPD thrusters essential for craft with very high delta-v requirements. An MPD thruster contains an injector and has the option of including a gimbal.

## Optimisation

* An MPD is more efficient when it has a high current compared to its mass flow. i.e. when it gets very close to suffering onset phenomena.
* An MPD costs less and is less massive when it is shorter than necessary to survive anode and cathode stresses.why?
* Polyethylene is an effective insulator material.

### Low power

* At low power inputs (megawatt-tier), players will want to maximize chamber thickness.why?
* Potassium and calcium make efficient anode and cathode materials.

### High power

* At large power inputs (gigawatt-tier), players will want to minimize chamber thickness.why?
* Depleted uranium makes a more efficient anode.

### Very high power

* At extreme power inputs (terawatt-tier), anode and cathode stresses become so large that the above materials become impractical.alternatives?
* Vanadium chromium steel becomes the preferred choice.of what?

## Propellants

MPDs can make use of many propellants. For this reason, many custom ships contain hybrid propulsion, using both an MPD and a resistojet or nuclear thermal rocket. However, different propellants have different maximal exhaust velocities for a given power level. In particular, hydrogen and hydrogen deuteride are the best in this regard as propellants.why? Common propellants for MPD-only ships include hydrogen deuteride, neon, and carbon dioxide. Ships with hybrid propulsion commonly use hydrogen deuteride, methane, RP-1, or heavy water.
Laserstar

Laserstars are a class of ship that focus on laser firepower and are thought by many to offer the most bang for your buck.

## Laserstar Design

### Propulsion

Laserstars are generally powered by Magnetoplasmodynamic drives seeing as they often have a lot of power available for their size and can generate respectable accelerations. Other forms of propulsion can be used though it is not very common.

### Armament

Laserstars primary armament is (you guessed it) lasers. Since laserstars are often not armored and designed not to take damage; you may as well use lasers with a large aperture in order to increase the intensity at range; even though this will leave them vunerable to attack. Kinetics can be included as a secondary weapon.

### Powerplant

Laserstars use a lot of power for their size. This means that they often have a lot of large radiators that are vunerable to being shot off by kinetics. Using a reactor with a high outlet temperature can reduce the amount of radiators needed.

### Armor

Laserstars are generally unarmored. Though if you choose to armor one; the same principles apply as armoring any other spacecraft.
Orbit

*Children of a Dead Earth* uses a fixed planet N-body simulation, which means ships will be affected by all planets loaded into the scenario, but the planets themselves are on rails, and are not actually affected by other sources of gravity.

For example, in a similar game such as *Kerbal Space Program*, players orbit individual planetary bodies and are only affected by their local gravitational fields. If players are orbiting a moon at very high altitude, they will not be affected by the gravity of the parent planet.

COADE, on the other hand, uses N-body simulation. If players are orbiting a moon at very high altitude, their orbit will become more and more perturbed as time goes on due to the gravitational influence of the parent planet. The smaller the moon is, and the more massive the planet is, the larger this affect will be.

## Orbital manoeuvres

* Constant-thrust trajectory
* Hohmann transfer
* Low energy transfer
* Orbital inclination change
Module Page Template

## Intro

Introduce the module and talk about the science behind it and what it does. Also include some pictures of the design screen and/or the module in use.

## Design

Talk about effectivley designing the modules to fill various roles. Suggest good choices of matereals and key values to enter/watch for in the module editor. Make Keep in mind that not all players will neccesarily have the same design philosophy as you and some may prefer matereals that are cheaper/more expensive, lighter, heavier, more realistic, etc. Also be sure to make note of how to deal with various warnings that could make a module nonfunctional.

## Use

Talk about how the module functions as part of a spacecraft.
Survivor: Panama - Anarchy

**Survivor: Panama - Anarchy** is the sixth season of Tiernan420's FanFic series

## Twists

* **Me vs Survivor Fanon Wiki:** Like Gonave Island, ten of my characters will go against ten characters created by the Survivor Fanon community!

* **Anarchy:** For the first stage of the game, there will be no tribes.

* **Hidden Immunity Idol:** The hidden immunity idols are hidden at the main campsite.

* **Schoolyard Pick:** When the tribes are created, a schoolyard pick will determine the tribes.

* **Double Tribal Council:** On Day 12, both tribes went to Tribal Council.

* **One World:** For the entirety of the game, both tribes will live at the same campsite for the full 39 days.
Use of Laser Drones

Laser drones are most commonly used as interceptors in Children of a Dead Earth, especially when only considering stock ships. Gun-armed drones can be devastating against any capital ship not protected by a laser, so planning to defend against them is always a good idea.

Of course ship-mounted lasers are much more powerful than anything that can be mounted on a stock-alike drone (around 20 tons or smaller), but laser drones have a number of advantages, mostly stemming from disadvantages of ship-mounted lasers:

1. Ship-mounted lasers require large radiators that make them more vulnerable against kinetic missiles, other capital ships and sometimes nuclear weapons. The resulting heat signature usually prevents these ships from using decoys. Of all the weapon systems on capital ships, lasers are usually the first to stop working in combat. A ship carrying laser drones for defense can usually run a smaller power plant and have small and better protected radiators.
2. Laser drones can protect other allied fleets and installations without the need to expend carrier's delta-v. The carrier can stay back out of the harm's way and let specialized ships do their job while still offering them protection from enemy drones.
3. While drone's laser have low power, they can exploit the fact that you need orders of magnitude less power to damage optics than to cut through armour. Even with multiple laser turrets, a capital ship can only fire as many lasers as it has laser cores. On the other hand, laser drones can fire as many lasers as they have drones. Thanks to this and the current AI behavior that will continue to fire on drones with disabled weapons until they disable the whole drone, as of 1.1.0 laser drones are moderately effective at disabling enemy capital ship lasers.

Stock laser drones are not that good for missile defense, except as cannon fodder. They are extremely expensive, heavy and you don't have a lot of them. Most missiles will target them, and their small lasers will spend a lot of time burining through missile armor. However, if the missiles are set to only target ships, even stock laser drones can get behind them and quickly disable their engines.

Optimized laser drones can mount more powerful lasers while keeping the same mass, and thus can be used as a more conventional defense against missiles. However, with optimized designs ship-mounted lasers also scale accordingly, so while you may get 100MW laser on a 15-20t drone, ships will have gigawatt range lasers. Even with this disparity, laser drones should still be a valid option for disabling enemy capital ship lasers as described above.

All of the above is true for small drones, on the order of magnitude of tens of tons mass. Larger drones, sub-capital (hundreds of tons) and capital (thousands of tons) act more like capital ships and have the same advantages and disadvantages because there will be much smaller number of them.
Carrier

Carriers are a type of capital ship that has the majority of its firepower delivered via drones. Typically, they have high delta-V, low acceleration, and little armor. In the stock game, the carriers are some of the most powerful ships.

## Carrier Design

Since carriers are essentially a cylinder with drones and fuel crammed inside, they are relatively easy to design.

### Propulsion

Carriers tend to use high-eV propulsion solutions like MPDs or NTRs to grant higher delta-Vs and therefore longer range.

### Armament

A carrier's main armament is its drones. However, point defense systems are usually employed, and stock carriers mount capital-ship-grade weaponry.

Delta-v

**Delta-*v*** (symbolised as ∆*v*) is a measure of a spacecraft's ability to change its trajectory, usually measured in km/s. Any instance in which velocity is imparted on the spacecraft using propellant, a reduction of the total remaining ∆*v* will occur proportional to the amount of propellant expended for the manoeuvre. In simple terms, ∆v can be expressed as the resulting velocity of a spacecraft accelerating through vacuum until running out of fuel.

Related to this concept is the "mass ratio" which is the ratio of propellant to the total mass of the spacecraft, including the propellant itself. While mass ratios as high as 5 are reasonably obtainable, achieving higher ratios requires compromise in terms of design. Exhaust velocity is another important factor; if two ships have the same exhaust velocity and mass ratio, they have the same ∆*v*. This is because exhaust velocity can be expressed as how much one unit of propellant will change the velocity of a spacecraft - for example, one gram of decane moving at 30km/s has a greater impulse than one gram of decane moving at 3km/s.
Sub-Races

There are 3 main sub-races common in society today, Grunts, Tinkers, and Royals.

## GRUNT-

**The Grunt genetic strain was engineered to provide humans with a workforce able to better withstand hostile environments and gifted with enhanced strength. With the rise of colonial revolts, this strain became the primary stock for the foot soldiers of the various military forces fighting across the multiverse.**

### Traits-

* Enhanced musculature leads to larger builds with stronger bones and overall height to compensate (average height marks about 6’5”)
* Strengthened epidermis to protect against hostile environs, leads to thicker skins with a coloration of green to grey to help protect against radiation exposure.
* Altered digestive tract and jaw to allow ingestion of meat and plant matter too tough for standard humans, gives the Grunt a pronounced jaw with prominent fangs.
* Boosted adrenal glands (and other hormonal alterations) provide greater strength but does tend to lead the Grunt to more aggressive (almost violent) behaviors.

## TINKER-

**The Tinker strain was engineered to craft a workforce capable of maneuvering cramped spaces to work on the complex machinery and electronics hidden in crawl spaces and ducts. As their name implies, Tinkers became the primary engineers and repairmen of society.**

### Traits-

* Height reduction while retaining muscle mass leads to a squat, almost barrel-like, build (average height marks about 4’7”). Modifications to hand structure allow the Tinker to retain manual dexterity.
* Increased body hair to help protect against the lessened climate-control found in the workspaces of installations. Bronzed skin coloration helps protect from the increased radiation that can be found in such environs.
* Enhanced senses allow for the identification of various materials by touch, smell, or even taste alone without the need for sight.
* Altered respiratory and circulatory systems allow a boosted resistance to numerous toxins, including, but not limited to: venom, alcohol, and carbon monoxide.

## ROYAL-

**The Royal strain (based on a less reputable “Cat-Girl” strain) was at first created as a vanity modification to add beauty and grace to the standard human stock. Soon afterwards, the strain was altered to boost general memorization and problem solving abilities. The Royal moniker was adopted when the strain became common among the Academics and Bureaucrats.**

### Traits-

* General enhancements for “beauty” included slimmer figure, a slight increase in height, no body hair, skin coloration from pale to silver tint (average height marks about 6’1”)
* Holdovers from the “Cat-Girl” strain include silver or golden eyes, low-light vision, and pointed ears.
* Neurological adjustments for memory and problem solving also had an effect of reducing general empathy and emotional responses.
* An unexpected effect of these changes was an increased aptitude for performance of all types and public speaking.

## Blockzilla

### Height

200x

**Blockzilla** is a giant, green monster who has a less than/greater than/equals signs (</>/=) for a mouth. She is voiced by Beth Chalmers.

She loves big stuff, because that's what she loves to play with, for example 2 < 3, so Blockzilla will play with 3.

As soon as she sees 2 numbers, she indicates which number is greater and which is less.

She talks in broken English.

## Trivia

* On various social media accounts, they have been starting to refer her to “Blockzee”. For example:
	+ https://m.facebook.com/numberblocks/posts/924189672527645/?comment\_id=874003234105112
	+ https://youtu.be/Z9W2Sv5qVm8?feature=shared
	+ This could be because of copyright reasons (as its name is similar to Godzilla). This may be the reason why she doesn’t appear after More To Explore but Big Tum does.
	+ It is unknown if this name change is permanent or not.

Iroquois Resurgence

Emblem of the Iroquois Resurgence

## Overview

The appearance of the Iroquois Resurgence faction was a surprise to all of the human race. Roughly eighty years after the Cataclysm, after most of the factions had settled down across the solar system, the Iroquois Resurgence suddenly announced their existence, a recent offshoot of the USTA, declaring independence from their parent faction. At the point of secession, they had control of several moons of Neptune, and a few asteroids in the belt.

The USTA responded with threats of destruction immediately (as soon as light could carry their message, at least), but at the time, no one had invested in a space miltiary hardware. The IR-USTA war was the first all war set entirely in space, and it set the stage for all future space warfare. The USTA, using their combined experience of hundreds of years of naval, air, and ground battles, rapidly discovered that nearly everything they were used to was completely obsolete. Specifically, the logistics of maintaining a space war were several orders of magnitude more difficult to manage than ground wars. The first war was punctuated by warships getting their propellant tanks punctured, their ships stranded, out of delta-v, aluminum tombs in orbit across the solar system, and the very rare combat engagement.

In the end, the USTA gave up their war, and instead have devoted the following years to simple trade sanctions as retaliation. To this day, the Iroquois Resurgence remains a small but significant faction, owning various small moons and asteroids across the entire solar system.

Bop

**Bop** is the 11th episode of Alphablocks Series 2.

The adventures of 26 lively letters who can make words come to life by holding hands. It's big bop night at the Alphadrome, but bossy bass player B falls out with drummer D over musical differences. She doesn't need her brother to make the blocks boogie... does she?

## Story

In Alphaland, a Big Bop is being held. B and D are performing a musical duet. However, they quickly haunt their performance as they both have trouble keeping in sync. B was playing smooth, and D was playing loud. B and D have an argument, but just then, A falls from the sky and lands in between them.

b-a-d, BAD!

B, and D make a new performance, along with A as the singer. However they all played really bad. B then tells D that she can play the drums better than D can behind her back… literally. She turns around making her “b” look like a “d” and attempts to play the drums. But she hit the drumsticks too hard, causing them to break. Because of this, D can’t play the drums, and immediately walks off stage heartbroken, A leaves to stay out of the commotion. B tries to think of a solution by volunteering the audience to play with her.

### Who’s ready to boogie?

B\_ \_

* BUN - B bops with a bun, but M eats it.
* BIG - B becomes big.
* BUG - B bops with a bug.
* BUS - B bops with a bus.
* BIN (star word) - B bops with a trash bin, but it doesn’t work out for her. That’s until, D makes a comeback on stage!

It turns out, D actually has many drumsticks. D notices the trash bin, and plays it like a steelpan. Thus, B and D were able to play in tune. Soon, O and P join in on the fun. And they both hold hands with B.

b-o-p, BOP!

The Alphablocks give a round of applause for B and D’s stunning performance.

Coilgun

Coilguns are a type of electrical gun which has different mechanics from railguns.

The main difference in gameplay is that they usually fire large projectiles (1 kilogram or more) and have a much lower muzzle velocity than railguns.

**Pros**

* They are able to fire heavy payloads, such as flak or nukes
* They do not have to have super long barrels to do this

**Cons**

* They are generally harder to make
* They will almost always have a lower muzzle velocity than railguns when firing sub kilogram projectiles
* they require a ridiculous amount of tweaking before they work well, on top of being more complicated to edit
* the ability to fire a nuke out of a coilgun can be mitigated by a laser, so you might have your own nukes blowing up the moment they come out of the gun if they are not armored.
Minsthorpe/Northfield

## The Original Minsthorpe Cinema

*Minsthorpe/Northfield* is a cinema in *South Kirkby* that was built in 1969. Wakefield Council shut it down unfortunately in 2013 due to repairs costing £1.2 million, Wakefield Council said because they were facing huge cuts to their budget at the time, they couldn't afford to reopen it, much to the dismay of the local community.

## The New Minsthorpe Cinema

However, on March 2, 2017, Wakefield Council announced that there will be a new multiplex cinema in the area.

The cinema will be located on *Ash Grove*, which was where the previous cinema was located.

The cinema will be much bigger than the previous cinema, and there is predicted to be about eleven screens in the multiplex.

The cinema is expected to open in Spring 2018.

	+ His personality could also possibly represent this, as staring at the blue sky can give people a sense of calmness.
* He is a female in Welsh.

The theme song at the beginning of Alphablocks episodes.

## Lyrics

We can laugh (Ha ha!)

We can sing (La la la la!)

We can make

Anything

Hold my hand

Make a magical land

Where letters get together

We go alakazam

We can run, we can slide

We can hide in a box

Are you ready for some fun

With the Alphablocks?

Alphablocks!

## Lyrics (Band Together)

We can laugh (Ha ha!)

We can sing (La la la la!)

We can make

Everything!

Hold my hand

And We'll Make up a Band

The biggest and the Best

to Ever rock Alphaland

We can bop, we can pop

We can knock off your socks

Are you ready to get rocking

With the Alphablocks?

Yeah!

Sing our song, sing along

Let us out of the box

Together and forever

We're the Alphablocks!

**Birds** are creatures that regularly appear in all 3 Learningblocks shows. Their colours may differ. Red birds are the most common birds. J actually thinks she’s a jaybird, which is a type of bird, and is not just pretending, as she has been seen nesting and trying to fly.

Brown (character)

**"I don't think I've seen Brown (character) before!" — Four**
This page is about the character(s). For the episode, see Brown (episode).

**Brown** is a character in *Colourblocks*.

## Appearance

She is an anthropomorphic brown beveled teardrop shape. She also has thick dark brown eyebrows and eyes, her lips are also a dark brown, and she also wears a brown hat with a white stripe around and what she calls a "colour explorer badge", along with brown outdoor boots.

## Learningblocks.tv Description

*Down-to-earth Brown is an adventurer and an explorer through and through. She lives in a log cabin in the woods alongside brown bears and brown owls.*

## Episode Appearances

* *Lighter and Darker* (colour only)
* *Brown* (debut)
* *Many Mixes Make Brown*
* *The Sorting Express* (colour only)
* *It's a Colourful World*
* *It's a Colourful Christmas*

Total number of appearances: 4

## Trivia

* She has the exact same shape as Orange.
	+ Brown and Orange are the third pair of Colourblocks to share the same shape. The first pair were Black and White, and the second pair were Red and Pink.
	+ This is because the Colourblocks are shades of the same colour, while the length of their limbs vary based on how light or dark the colours are, with the exception of Black, White and the greys, as they do not have limbs.
* She is currently the only saturated shade Colourblock to be her own character.
* The type of brown she represents is **dark orange**. Meanwhile other variations of the colour also exist, with some occurring when mixing different colours.
* She is the fourth Colourblock to wear an outfit by default: a park hat and boots as well as the “Colour Explorer Badge” that she wore in Many Mixes Make Brown onwards. The first two were Indigo and Violet, the third being Pink and the fifth and sixth being Cyan and Magenta.
* Her personality is a little bit similar to Green due to her being a naturally-occurring colour, and to some extent Twenty-One due to them both being explorers.
* She is one of many Learningblocks characters to canonically have a home, being her cabin.
* She stepped in a puddle just like Thirteen, and both times it seemed like they were going to say something about fecal matter.
* In Meet the Colourblocks, her hat and boots are beige and not brown.
* Along with Pink, Purple, Magenta, and the shades, they are not in the visible light spectrum.
* As of It's a Colourful Christmas, her facial features, most notably her mouth, are darker. It is unknown if this change is permanent or temporary.

Blocks

**"Let’s do everything!" — Ten**
This page is a list of stuff.

## Alphablocks

### Alphablocks

Alphablocks are a species in Alphaland and the main characters of the show with the same name.

They are rectangular prisms, rounded at the top, with glass cages. The cages contain letters in them called Alphalings, which can change from lowercase to uppercase.

All vowels have stripes, while consonants don’t, except Y, which can change.

### Aliens

Aliens, like Fred, are shaped like Alphablocks but are green and have three eyes. They can change Alphalings.

### It

The It is a form related to the Alphablocks, but it looks deformed of them. Unlike the others, the “It” has no glass caging.

## Numberblocks

Numberblocks are a species in Numberland and the main characters of the show with the same name.

They have the exact number of cubes as the value of their Numberling (the number that floats above their head).

Inherited traits are common with mathematics, here are the examples:

* "Step squads" (triangular numbers) 15 and over wear a mask (excluding 300)
* Step squads between 15 and 45 wear masks
* Square numbers have square eyes (excluding 1, 900, and 90,000)
* Super rectangles have rectangle eyes (excluding magnitude of non-super rectangles)
* Super rectangles with limbs have array displays (excluding 64)
* Colours depending on place value (e.g. 26 is tan and indigo because 20 and 6 are)
* Similar appearances to their magnitude (like 80 looks like 8)

## Colourblocks

Colourblocks are the main species of Colourland and the main characters of the show with the same name as them.

There are three rules as to how they are shaped:

* Mixed hues must share traits of the shapes of what colours mix to them (Orange has a pointy top like Red, and a curved bottom like Yellow).
* All shades are circles with circular hands, and no mouth (e.g. Black and White).
* Lighter Colourblocks are taller than their brighter variation, darker Colourblocks are shorter than their brighter variation.
Bus

BU... SOTP!

In this episode, S, T, O, and P hop on a run-away bus.

b-u-s, BUS!

A bus appears, and T, O, and P steal the bus. S thinks...

s-u-b, SUB!

S, U, and B hop in the sub, but it can't move. So they chase after the bus. Meanwhile on the bus, P pops downstairs and finds that there's no driver, and pops back up. S hops on the bus.

100 Ways to Leave the Planet

**“WHO KNOWS WHAT AWAITS YOU?”**

*This page is partially protected. Only established registered users can edit.*

**Reason**: High-traffic page

**100 Ways to Leave the Planet** is the thirtieth and final episode of the fifth season of Numberblocks. It is the 120th episode overall, and the final normal-length episode of Numberblocks, at least for now.

## Synopsis

*It's time for the biggest adventure of all – there's a whole universe to explore.* Get ready to be a number explorer with everything you've learned from the Numberblocks.

## Plot

The Numberblocks are planning to travel throughout space--a big adventure for them. Prepping up to launch at the brink of dawn, all Numberblocks ready themselves to travel, as One passes by them and makes sure everyone's prepared, with sandwiches and all.

One states she'll miss One-Hundred, though One-Hundred reassures her that she's made of many Ones- and can form many numbers which means that she is taking One and many others, with her. One herself is nervous to leave, but One Hundred has a reassuring conversation with her. After that pep talk, Two soon notices the rising sun, the signal for everyone to leave, and everyone launches off.

With that said, One goes to her invention; a Magic Mirror strapped onto a rocket chair. Flying into space, she remembers to create one last copy of herself to send back down to Numberland.

Then One gets a sandwich because she is hungry.

## Trivia

* The final One on Numberland is supposed to represent the viewer. With all the tools you've been given, you can go out and explore.
* There are currently no Six to Nine times tables, despite a Ten Times Table existing, and this episode being the current final normal-length episode exemplifies that.
	+ However, Series 6 is announced on October 26th, 2023, so there would be a chance of the Six to Nine Times Tables existing.
* This is the third episode with a unique credits scene. The first and second were The Wrong Number and One Thousand and One.
* This episode *possibly* reveals where the One came from at the start of the series.
* This is the last appearance of a compound Numberblock - One-Hundred-and-One.
* Fifty-Five's rocket was built differently than in One Giant Step Squad.

### Errors

* In the scene where the squares sneeze, the Forty-Nine that got sneezed out by Eighty-One has same-colored borders around every block.
* On YouTube, this is listed as the second-to-last episode of Series 5 just behind What If?, however, this is the last episode of Series 5.
