Complete - Planned gate request, Menzel 3 - Ceres

I am Ant, Senator of Menzel 3 (Johneaux-370) and would like to request approval for a gate to Ceres. Ram and myself have been stockpiling materials for over a month on the planet.
Thank you.

Here are the materials needed for this gate.



I would estimate we have at least half the resources stored and ready to go in.

This is a nice planet and system. It is also a stepping stone to Primo Spe. We hope to gate to that very strong, well established system soon.

This is the first gated system out in this direction and will be a good system to connect to the newly resized Ceres!

As soon as we have approval, we will move all our stored materials to this gate. It will seem like a fast gate build, but in actuality, we have been storing for months in anticipation.

I would also like to take this time to welcome our new Senator from the great system of Menzel 3. Ant has been a very strong support and help to many projects to date. He is also a active member of MG and the Prom Team. I commend him to my fellow senators and stand with him as he steps forward into his new office and role.

I updated the breakdown and shortened this to a 30 day build. I think we will be able to do that as soon as we can get gate approval from UNCA. If UNCA would approve, we could complete the Menzel 3 side as we wait for the placement of the Ceres side. Again, we have most of the materials for one side already. So I think a 30 day build plan is very realistic.

We have over 30 modules and I have over 12 million tons stored waiting to go into this gate system. Ant has millions stored also. I have actually run out of storage and am enlarging my starbase storage by over 3 million. As soon as this gate is approved, we will start to supply.

The UNCA approval is all we need to get this project moving forward. We are planning to gate another well established system to Menzel 3 once the January elections are over.

This will be ant and my primary build until done. UNCA quick review is appreciated.

This gate has Presidential approval

This gate has Presidential approval

Could the President exert any more "influence" on UNCA to get this gate approved?

Would love to gate to the newly enlarged Ceres. Such a nice and wonderful system. I think we have enough supplies stored to get one side working in days, like 1 or 2 days. The other side would be within a month. Now that is even faster than RAMplex gate. We might set a new Apollo System record for the fastest gate build.

After much debate in the cambers with the UNCA commanders...

The gate is now approved!

At the time of writing this note, only Menzel-3 end is assesible for supplying materials

Ceres end will be available shortly

After much work, mostly from ant, you know those ants are very industrious, The Menzel side of this gate pair is very close to being complete. Most of my iron was in system already, so easy to supply.



We just plum ran out of iron. I suspect we will have enough by tomorrow and have it completed. We will start storing up for the Ceres side. I am sure it will go slower, but we will stay at it daily and get it finished.

M3 > Ceres is complete, I just had the 1st jump
