>There are many buttons and knobs in the capsule. One turns on the light and a knob dims the light. One turns on the TV, another button flips through the channels. There is a big red button that costs Y300 to press. That's the porn button. There is a radio and an alarm clock built in. At the end of the capsule there is a screen you can pull down to "lock" yourself in. The entire capsule was about 6 to 6.5 feet long. I am 6 foot 3ish and I had to lie diagonally, but I was able to sleep. The building was slightly warmer than I prefer. I wish there were individual heaters/coolers in each capsule.

NASAs new HQ is located here with a hypervelocity railgun derived rail line connected directly to KSC down in florida. A massive mural of Carl Sagan hangs in the local botanical park amidst the scientific walk of fame with Plasma Televisions playing the symphony of science music videos.

Immediately surrounding the city is a small lake giving the city an island city feel. The water is pure blue from the sand bottom. There, massive coral experiments are ongoing to replicate and save endangered species. On the west end, the lake eventually meets the tropical ocean stretching off into an endless blue untainted by pollution.
