Sorry to bother you with this. I wanted to point out an amazing planetarium software that supplements real astronomical data with procedural generation: en.spaceengine.org. It is developed and maintained by an astronomer from Saint Petersburg. I thought it might interest you, if you haven't heard of it yet.

and ensure that the landing jacks have a thick coating of teflon or something fluorine resistant.

Fluorine-powered landers - for when you absolutely, positively want to sterilize the landing site! (I should design a FOOF/ClF3-powered dropship. Finally, something that makes the _Flapjack_-class look environmentally friendly.)
