    In the military, it is an Article 15 disciplinary action to get a sunburn. One is supposed to monitor conditions to prevent that, ESPECIALLY on vacation.

      Which military, there are over 100.

      On your planet, not mine, we put Biafine on sunburn, pain is instantaneous gone, soldier can do their job as intended.
      But I live on a deathworld level 12, not on a world teletubbies level.

      The term Military Intelligence is an oxymoron for a reason. The military command forgets just where their authority ends.

      That sounds so stupid, but being a veteran myself, it's believable.

      For more context:
      When someone refers to Article 15, it refers to violating Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ). Which is akin to breaking an actual law, and is punished as such.

    Very fun, and not too much repetition.

    Apple cider vinegar takes care of the sting. You'll smell like a salad for a bit, but it's worth the pain relief. 😊

      Absolutely! The blend of humor and realism here is spot on. It’s amazing how such content resonates with everyday life. If you enjoy this kind of vibe, you might find my take on similar themes interesting. I explore relatable situations with a twist of humor. Keep up the great work!

    excellent story based on what we might consider a trivial subject. Zara, BTW, is stunning...with or without the sunburn. ;-)

    A series about the HEED could be fun and interesting reading

    looking at the very galactic empire influenced art, please recall that Star Wars occurred "A long time ago in a galaxy far far away..."

    Good thing they do not know about sunburn burn degrees or sun poisoning.

    A lot of repetition, the interactions are all very canned and dry. Characters are all stereotypical archetypes. There is a lack of depth and emotion. The other alien species and cultures feel more like set dressing than anything that may be tangible and relevant to the story. Also, the premises seems bizarre. Or rather, the reactions to it. Radiation is a well known physical effect easily observable in the universe.
    While humans getting a sunburn could certainly be a unique thing, why are they all suddenly worried, after what is stated to be years of political discourse, about the practice of humans irradiating themselves in this way? I could understand them seeing it as dumb, primitive, and barbaric(and, tbh, it kind of is when done intentionally as it raises one's cancer risk), but why on earth is there so much panic in the council chamber over this? It is quickly explained that it is a burn, they clearly understand the concept, and yet the story is presented as if this could be a political disaster? Why on earth would it be a political disaster? They are clearly accepting of many vastly different species and cultures. If the issues is around allowing for a form of self mutilation, I think it's reasonable to address this with legislation, but that seems to never be addressed. It's handwaved as "complex" despite being the most valid criticism.
    And then, they decided to form an exploratory team, because they have a natural(but somewhat shitty imo) resistance to UV radiation? Like, the type of UV radiation that causes sunburns is stopped by even a thin pane of normal glass. Did you even bother to do any research before this was written? And glass isn't even the best radiation blocking material. Lead is a common element and is very good at blocking radiation, which is why many things are lead lined when this is needed. And that's a common element. And they claimed their probes couldn't handle these environments, but being able to sunburn would make humans, an organic, more suitable than a probe? How!? How on earth? That makes no sense at all! Are you telling me they never bothered to try and apply a thin protective shell of, honestly, any number of somewhat effective elements to block UV radiation?
    There is suspension of disbelief, but that only gets you so far. Especially in something masquerading as a sci fi story. This is just poorly researched, poorly written slop. Like, it makes me wonder if this was AI written, as it really seems like no competent human writer ever reviewed this.

      While your description of the problems with the narrative is accurate, this is an AI boilerplate channel so it's to be expected.
