Team BMW talks to TOM

Chapter 07

Various ways to talk to TOM have been suggested, laptops, micro-devices, etc. At first, laptops only were allowed, with Marcus and Team typing all. Microchips were put into Bethany Anne's ear (worldwide communications with others). Then chat program brought by Nathan. Eventually, whole team able to talk directly.

Pods planned, assembled

Chapter 22

One of the major decisions was as to the size of the pods. Bethany Anne wanted a personal attack vehicle, so a 2-3 person capacity was assumed. Then TOM said they didn't need a pilot, that an AI could control them, so a 4 person was possible. Xenon difluoride (a white powder used to etch silicone conductors) would be the basic element in the anti-grav engines, treated by TOM in his space ship so that it wouldn't explode, and charged to connect with the Etheric for energy.

The engines and pods would be assembled on the Polarus. Bodies for the pods? TOM said to just buy something- almost anything would be cheaper than designing anything special.

Pods and assembly completed, Pods flown in Turkey battles.
