Slut Trek: Isocanaans – 1863: Isocan IV Mission to Celestia

Celestia, discovered in 1836, emerged as a celestial wonder with its diameter spanning approximately 1,300 kilometers. The delicate atmosphere of Celestia, mainly composed of nitrogen and carbon dioxide, adds a mystical aura to its celestial realm. The groundbreaking Isocan IV mission, accomplished in 1863, propelled scientific exploration to new heights by successfully landing a probe on the surface of Celestia. This historic achievement unlocked a wealth of knowledge, allowing scientists to delve deeper into Celestia’s geological history, unravel its unique surface characteristics, and broaden our understanding of this captivating moon.

The Isocan IV mission employed the remarkable ION-AB4 propulsion system, which boasted an astounding maximum speed of 17,706,696 miles per hour. This propulsion system utilized a revolutionary fuel known as Refined Tritonium, harnessing its immense energy density of 241,860,000,000 MJ/kg. The mission demonstrated the sheer power of this fuel, pushing the engine to its limits and achieving unprecedented speeds. Refined Tritonium was developed following the Isocan III mission, which unearthed new parameters for enhancing the fuel’s robustness.

Moreover, the Isocan IV mission yielded another remarkable discovery—the creation of a revolutionary alloy metal known as Ioneum. This extraordinary metal was capable of withstanding the extreme heat generated during high-speed travel. With a mere 1mm thick coating of Ioneum, materials inside the spacecraft were shielded from external temperatures as high as 5,000 Kelvin. The unique nature of Ioneum necessitates a distinct method of application. It cannot be applied in liquid form, as the required temperatures would melt the underlying surface. Instead, a reactive epoxy-style paint is applied to the object’s surface, followed by a precise blasting of powdered mineral. Upon contact with the epoxy, the mineral undergoes a rapid reaction, pulling the material toward the object’s center of gravity. This results in every pore being filled and the surface being flawlessly flat, smooth, and free from imperfections. The creation of Ioneum stands as an impressive achievement in material science.

The scientific discoveries made during the Isocan IV mission not only advanced our understanding of Celestia but also revolutionized propulsion systems and material engineering. These groundbreaking achievements have paved the way for future missions and opened up new frontiers of exploration in the realm of celestial bodies. The team of scientists involved in the mission showcased their expertise, creativity, and determination, leaving an indelible mark on the scientific community and inspiring generations to come.
