Lost in Space: Fallout's Hidden Stories of Pre-War Space Exploration

  • Prior to nuclear devastation, Fallout's United States Space Administration dared to reach for the stars. From Mr Pebbles to the global Space Race, the US space program had a drive to boldly go where no man had gone before, pushing the boundaries of technology. Though, this early sucess wouldn't be the norm. Failures, cover-ups, and incomplete projects would plague the USSA's future, until the Great War would finally seal the fate of the pre-War administration. These are the untold stories of Fallout's pre-War space exploration.

    You know it’s kind of bizarre. Only 2 people in the Fallout apocalypse have been in space(still alive): Sophia Daguerre & the Lone Wanderer(mainly talking about people who’ve gotten into a suit and walked out there). Mothership zeta is awesome. Going out in space and fighting aliens is completely amazing(firing the spaceship laser was the cherry on top for me). Sophia has a cool story but the repetitive quests were dull. It would’ve been fun to actually go out in space and rescue her. I hope we get more space content in the next Fallout.

    Two of my favourite things.
    Very honourable mentions;
    •Vault-Tec: Among The Stars.
    •Enclave, planned new society governed with ‘guidance’ from the results of the Vault-Tec experiments.
    •Repconn & Jason Bright.
    •Dick and Dara Hubbell.
    •Sea Of Tranquility Conflict.
    •Mr House's colonisation plan.
    •Plasma weaponry's origin.
    Honourable mention;
    •Captain Cosmo themed real space gear to inspire public interest in space, in the hopes of more funding.
    •Deep Space power armour, at time of writing is a datamined Atomic Shop power armour and has a USSA logo which looks like the Starfield logo, maybe to come out closer to the game.
    Please let me know if this helps you make a part two, giving people a space themed fix approaching Starfield.
    Barely honourable mention;
    •The Outer World's also by Obsidian resembles a society well into Mr House's colonisation plan, the Enclave stealing the skip drive from Mr House and using it as leverage over him to become the Earth Directorate and governing the colonies.
    This strongarmed partnership between Enclave/Vault-Tec and Mr House accelerating his plans by 26 years and then complications from the quote ‘Great War’ (BOS & other Wasteland factions?) causes Earth to lose contact with the colonies and ships.
    I could go on but this connection is spiritual at best and unless a TOW2 and/or FNV2 sets this up or establishes it as a parallel universe since Microsoft owns all parties involved at this point.

    For pre-war lore I thought it be great to to have a start like fallout 4 before the war but you're at the moon base, 2 weeks left before returning home. You find out the Chinese set up an outpost on the edge of the dark of the moon. As you prepare to assault the outpost all comms and power go out suddenly. the Zetans attack you and the Chinese. The American and Chinese survivors flee back to the US moon base and work together to repair comms. You lead a strike team against the zetans only to deduce they are trying to repair their ship to take out our orbital alert station and alert the zetan carrier to commence invasion, you sneak a nuke aboard and blow the scout zetan ship. The comms are finally restored in time for the retaliation from the Zetans who manage to fire off a nuke moments before you break into the control room. The American and Chinese survivors go to the main atrium and view earth being engulfed in nuclear fire all the while listening to the world go silent. The next day you receive a radio burst transmission that your family were granted access into a vault but could not safely travel to it and are held up in a radio satellite array. You and your survivors work together to repair the escape pods and make your way back to Earth and the game begins!

    The fact it took 12 minutes to orbit the Earth is definitely bonkers and calls into question the US claiming he was the first person to orbit. At minimum it would take 90 minutes so I am 100% sure China and the Soviets were right about the flight. Also calls into question everything else they say as well considering their lunar lander doesn't even have a ladder to ascend to the surface.

      You realise cameras can auto pan right? It's literally a motor set to engage at a certain point. Also, you're wrong, the camera on the moon *was* able to be controlled from the Earth to pan upwards but they realised that the latency (which was around 2-3 seconds not 8-10) would be too much so it was simply pre-programmed to tilt up based on the lift off sequence and the astronauts worked to a planned time of departure. With Apollo 15 the automation failed and yes, just recorded the lift off and nothing else and they actually messed up on Apollo 16 as the buggy with the camera on was too close so it didn't capture it. Apollo 17 they did actually use the remote command based on a pre-planned sequence of known time, Ed Fendell operated it and started the sequence at T minus 3 seconds knowing it would take a few seconds to fire and start lifting so it starts tracking up 2-3 seconds after the lift off and tracked it perfectly
