FRANÇAIS AVIS IMPORTANT AUX LECTEURS Les 10 prochaines pages vont être sérieusement censurées; je ne veux pas perdre mon compte pour un autre avertissement d'une violation du "TOS", après en avoir reçu au sujet de la page couverture de cet épisode. J'essaierais de conserver les aspects essentiels de la narration, car tout ce qui arrivera à Ionivka dépend fortement des événements racontés dans ces pages censurées. ENGLISH Translation Clip "a" : N: This hardened top salted layer is covering a layer of sand that is about 15 meters deep. It is risky to drive a wheeled truck on such surface layer. If it is driven over a thin surface layer zone, it will sink in through that layer and it becomes very difficult to recuperate it. However, hovercars can drive over it without worry. Vulture aircraft can land and taxi on such a thin surface layer. However, hovercraft-based vehicles are less easy to drive and are not as multifunctional like regular trucks. S: This old truck is still in good working condition. I think that Dr. Wong will approve of dismantling it for salvaging such vehicle. Clip "b" : N: While building this site for the mining operations, roads were built by thickening and solidifying the surface layer by sprinkling brine then by letting it dry, layer above layers along the same lines on the surface. We are still using the same brine-based roads. We are maintaining these roads by sprinkling some more brine on them. The water comes from our pipeline*, and the salt is delivered here by truck. Note with arrows: Wider wheels. Note*: Episode 3, page 46a Clip "c" : Sudden sand storms of strong dust devils can appear at the CraaTerm when it is windy. The surface around the test installations have been solidified with a layer of concrete. Dr. Wong increased the surface area of the concrete layer around the test well, because this area will be under an artificial tornado that will be created by the propulsion ionic jet while testing the propulsion engine. Clip "d" : N: A year before Marc has visited* this site, one of the dust devils has hit the tall crane before it had time to take refuge under his designated hangar.They had to disassemble it, then to rebuild it while replacing the pieces that were damaged. Note*: Episode 3, pages 20, 21 and 26 Clip "e" : N: It took 14 months for rebuilding it. It became fully operational, regaining its maximum hoisting capacity or 1500 tons, since only 2 months ago. Clip "f" : N: The preparation work for the E2S6 actualization was progressing as planned. Everything will be ready in a year, if there is no unexpected event. There is lots of work for the teams at the CraaTerm. There was no need for me to be there during that time. We were then able to put more time on writing the actualization plan for the Hyprops. S: ... and we will keep you updated about our progress, every week. S: Thank you, Mevina. IMPORTANT NOTICE TO READERS The 10 coming pages will be highly censored; I do not want to face the loss of my account for a possible TOS violation warning, after the one I got for my cover page of this episode. I will try to keep the most essential aspect of the censured pages because what will happen to Ionivka is highly dependent on the events narrated on the censored pages. Social comment about the Covid-19. Do not be surprised that after the end of this pandemic, we will have lost many aspects of our freedom under authoritarian, corrupted and unelected global bureaucrats and technocrats. Happy St-Patrick's day!
