Discovery Landers

discovery landers when a planet with life is discovered by a progenitor ship, a discovery lander (2km in diameter when released) is sent to the surface to establish a transpod receiving station (aka jumpdeck) with two to six creator transpods the specific number of transpods correlates with the presence and development level of sentient life in the system; as species and civilizations evolve, and the demand for intergalactic travel increases, 71250dj19x14ph2ma0s30k1k6n1m8jsj61a54ea4916k4c2f88t46ht76rs50csm8gtn2 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 every lander is powered by a medium sized proten, possesses the ability to grow more protens, and equipped with a suite of servitors to maintain, and protect when necessary, the receiving station when someone jumps to a discovery lander, the fabrication of a skin consumes a significant amount of energy from the proten powering the creator transpod system using an assembler to create needed equipment does the same the discovery lander will recharge the proten (a process which takes time); the protens do not recharge themselves the central core forms under the 'umbrella' of a discovery lander sentients are guided to their desired function inside the discover lander via a phosphorescent floor
