There are billions of stars, millions of planets, but there is only one man, Terrance McDoogal. Welcome to LIU Atlas.
LIU Atlas - A14-S25
The Ludgonian Industrial Union's galaxy contains billions of stars and billions of planets. Unfortunately, most residents of the LIU could only name a handful of these worlds. In order to improve astronomy grades across the LIU, TV2 has started a new program called LIU Atlas. Follow our host, Terrance McDoogal, as he takes you on a tour across the LIU and some of its more obscure worlds.

Doog: “Welcome to another special edition episode of LIU Atlas. I’m your host, Terrance “Doog” McDoogal. Today, we're continuing our tour of the Blattarius Halo, by visiting the space station A14-S25. The station is located in the halo’s outer edge, but it’s much higher above the galactic plane than Nidavellir. It took us almost a week in hyperspace to reach this position above the galaxy. The station was positioned here so that it had line of sight access to the entire galaxy. Why is this important? Because A14-S25 is home to Galactic Radio.”
Doog: “Galactic Radio is the state-run radio station that broadcasts subspace radio signals across the entire galaxy. These signals broadcasts music, news, and emergency information to almost every world in the galaxy. Today, they’re broadcasting an interview with my crew and I. Hopefully, we’ll be able to tour the station for a little bit before our interview.”
Doog: “How do I look?”
Mike: “Seriously? Why you worried about that? We’re doing a radio show.”
Doog: “I don’t know. I’m nervous, I guess. We’ll have a galaxy-wide audience.”
Mike: “I think you’re overestimating the amount of listeners we’ll have. I mean, the station broadcasts galaxy-wide, but who listens to the radio these days.”
Cam: “Yeah, subspace radio is obsolete.”
Oldie: “What! It’s not obsolete! I listen to Galactic Radio all the time.”
Cam: “That’s because you’re old.”
Mike: “Yeah. You’re stuck in the olden days. HoloCorp and TV2 superseded Galactic Radio fifty years ago.”
Cam: “In other words, you‘re the only one of us that was alive when Subspace Radio was cool.”
Doog: “I’m not necessarily worried about the amount of viewers. I mean, I’m a famous TV host, I can handle any audience. I just don’t want to say anything stupid.”
Mike: “I’m pretty sure you’re screwed in that regard.”
Cam: “Yeah…hate to break it to you, but you say stupid stuff all time.”
Oldie: “Not to add to your worries, but you need to remember that the radio show is live. You won’t have Timbo to edit what you say.”
Doog: “Thanks for your support, guys. I really appreciate it.”
Mike: “Seriously? Why you worried about that? We’re doing a radio show.”
Doog: “I don’t know. I’m nervous, I guess. We’ll have a galaxy-wide audience.”
Mike: “I think you’re overestimating the amount of listeners we’ll have. I mean, the station broadcasts galaxy-wide, but who listens to the radio these days.”

Doog: “Thanks for your support, guys. I really appreciate it.”
Doog: “Why does it smell like Obex in here?”
Mike: “Obex?”
Doog: “Yeah, like a mix of weed and box cows.”
Cam: “If what I’ve heard about Galactic Radio is true, then most of the employees here are space hippies.”
Doog: “Hippies? Out here?”
Cam: “This is perfect hippie territory out here. Far from society, surrounded by music, working in a fading industry that no one really cares about anymore.”
Doog: “Yeah, I guess. Almost makes me want to look for a job opening.”
Oldie: “ For the last time, Galactic Radio is not a fading industry!”
Mike: “Obex?”
Doog: “Yeah, like a mix of weed and box cows.”
Cam: “If what I’ve heard about Galactic Radio is true, then most of the employees here are space hippies.”
Doog: “Hippies? Out here?”

Oldie: “ For the last time, Galactic Radio is not a fading industry!”
Windsong: “Hey friends. It’s totally awesome that you joined us here today. I’m Windsong, a disc jockey here at Galactic Radio.”
Doog: “Nice to meet…”
Oldie: “Ooh! Oooh! Windsong! You’re my favorite!”
Windsong: “Thanks, man. You guys are my favorite too. You, like, travel all around the galaxy in a little ship. Very hippie-like.”
Doog: “Hey, there’s always room for one more. We might even leave Oldie here if he likes it so much.”
Cam: “Seems like a fair trade to me.”
Windsong: “That’s a groovy offer, friends, but I really love it here at Galactic Radio. I mean, like, I get to listen to sweet tunes almost all day. Come on, let’s get started with the tour. You’ll see what I mean.”
Doog: “Nice to meet…”
Oldie: “Ooh! Oooh! Windsong! You’re my favorite!”
Windsong: “Thanks, man. You guys are my favorite too. You, like, travel all around the galaxy in a little ship. Very hippie-like.”
Doog: “Hey, there’s always room for one more. We might even leave Oldie here if he likes it so much.”

Windsong: “That’s a groovy offer, friends, but I really love it here at Galactic Radio. I mean, like, I get to listen to sweet tunes almost all day. Come on, let’s get started with the tour. You’ll see what I mean.”
Windsong: “Galactic Radio’s radical range and reach has aided the music sales of millions of artists across the galaxy. As we journey through the station, you’ll see tons of records that we helped to go Rhenium.”
Doog: “Rhenium?”
Windsong: “Over a billion records sold.”
Doog: “Ah, nice. I never bought music before, so I’m not up on my terminology.”
Windsong: “Never?”
Doog: “Never. It’s too easy to get for free.”
Mike: “It’s not free when you steal it from me, Doog.”
Doog: “Whatever. So, what’s up with all the clocks?”
Windsong: “Oh, those? Well, like, Galactic Radio broadcasts to the entire galaxy, but we base our broadcast schedule on three of the LIU’s most populated worlds: Ludgonia, Fornacis, and Tressis.”
Doog: “Rhenium?”
Windsong: “Over a billion records sold.”
Doog: “Ah, nice. I never bought music before, so I’m not up on my terminology.”
Windsong: “Never?”
Doog: “Never. It’s too easy to get for free.”
Mike: “It’s not free when you steal it from me, Doog.”

Windsong: “Oh, those? Well, like, Galactic Radio broadcasts to the entire galaxy, but we base our broadcast schedule on three of the LIU’s most populated worlds: Ludgonia, Fornacis, and Tressis.”
Windsong: “So, this place is truly awesome. This is, like, the technical side of subspace radio. Here, our broadcasts are condensed. It’s totally, like, easier to transmit condensed information. Groovy, huh?”
Doog: “Groovy indeed.”
Windsong: “Galactic Radio broadcasts five different signals. Signal 1 is the audio version of TV2’s Galaxy News. So, like, news and stuff. Signal 2 is the Emergency Broadcast signal. It’s only activated during emergencies. Oh yeah, signals 3 to 5 are music channels. I prefer four, it’s loaded with far out tunes.”
Oldie: “Four is my favorite too. Easy listening and it has the galaxy’s best DJ, Windsong.”
Windsong: “Aw, thanks, man. I’m stoked you enjoy my show.”
Doog: “Groovy indeed.”

Windsong: “Aw, thanks, man. I’m stoked you enjoy my show.”
Windsong: “I come here pretty often. I don’t know how most of it works, but I can stare at all these flashing lights forever. It might have something to do with all the psychedelics coursing through my veins though.”
Doog: “So is there some type of employment office on this station? I’m sold.”
Doog: “So is there some type of employment office on this station? I’m sold.”
Windsong: “It’s going to ruin my buzz, but I think that’s all the time we have. This is, like, the studio. These are the DJ’s that are going to interview you.”
Doog: “Who are they?”
Oldie: “What! Everyone knows these guys, it’s DJ Snot Rocket and DJ Dreamfruit.”
Windsong: “Yep. Exactly, man.”
Doog: “Of course. I knew that. Stop making me look bad in front of Windsong, Oldie. I listen to Snotfruit and Dream Rocket all the time.”
Oldie: “You got their names backwards.”
Windsong: “Yeah. Not cool, man.”
Doog: “Who are they?”
Oldie: “What! Everyone knows these guys, it’s DJ Snot Rocket and DJ Dreamfruit.”
Windsong: “Yep. Exactly, man.”
Doog: “Of course. I knew that. Stop making me look bad in front of Windsong, Oldie. I listen to Snotfruit and Dream Rocket all the time.”
Oldie: “You got their names backwards.”
Windsong: “Yeah. Not cool, man.”
Windsong: “When they go to commercial, we’ll, like, get you in there.”
Snot Rocket: “Alright brothers and sisters, it’s time to return from the Astral Plane. We have a special guest today. His name is Doog.”
Dreamfruit: “ Doog. Dooog. That name is far out, man. I, like, think we should journey back into the plane a few moments and think about that name. It, like, rolls off the tongue. Dooog.”
Snot Rocket: “Perhaps another time, my brother. For right now, let’s, like, go to a commercial. Then let’s talk to this Doog guy. Dooog. Ha. You’re right about that name.”
Snot Rocket: “Alright brothers and sisters, it’s time to return from the Astral Plane. We have a special guest today. His name is Doog.”
Dreamfruit: “ Doog. Dooog. That name is far out, man. I, like, think we should journey back into the plane a few moments and think about that name. It, like, rolls off the tongue. Dooog.”
Snot Rocket: “Perhaps another time, my brother. For right now, let’s, like, go to a commercial. Then let’s talk to this Doog guy. Dooog. Ha. You’re right about that name.”
Snot Rocket: “Alright, galactic family. We’re back. We have, like, lots of special guests today. I thought it was just this Doog guy, but he brought some of his friends too. There’s Oldie, Cam, and Mike. My favorite far out babe, Windsong, has joined us too. Thanks for being with us today, dudes.”
Doog: “No problem, DJ Dreamfruit. We’re glad to be here. In fact, I might actually end up staying here. It’s pretty sweet here.”
Snot Rocket: “Cool, man. But, I’m DJ Snot Rocket. DJ Dreamfruit is over there.”
Doog: “Oh really? I thought for sure the green guy that looks like a booger was going to be the one called ‘ Snot Rocket’.”
Dreamfruit: “Whoa, dude. That’s harsh. You shouldn’t judge people on their appearances.”
Snot Rocket: “Yeah, totally. You’d think the guy with a face for radio wouldn’t be, like, so quick to judge other people’s looks.”
Doog: “Hey! There’s nothing wrong with my face!”
Dreamfruit: “Calm down, Snot Rocket. Like, don’t get on this Doog guy’s plane. I sense some bad vibes emanating from his plane.”
Doog: “No problem, DJ Dreamfruit. We’re glad to be here. In fact, I might actually end up staying here. It’s pretty sweet here.”
Snot Rocket: “Cool, man. But, I’m DJ Snot Rocket. DJ Dreamfruit is over there.”
Doog: “Oh really? I thought for sure the green guy that looks like a booger was going to be the one called ‘ Snot Rocket’.”

Doog: “Hey! There’s nothing wrong with my face!”
Dreamfruit: “Calm down, Snot Rocket. Like, don’t get on this Doog guy’s plane. I sense some bad vibes emanating from his plane.”
Doog: “I don’t have bad vibes!”
Snot Rocket: “He, like, even brought his own microphone to the interview. Like, he totally doesn’t want to use our microphones. He’s too good for us or something.”
Windsong: “Whoa. I can sense that now. Sorry brothers. I wouldn’t have brought him if I…”
Doog: “I always have my mic! Don’t you watch my show?”
Dreamfruit: “Not cool to interrupt a lady, man. You’re judgmental and rude. Like, I recommend that no one watches this dude’s show.”
Doog: “What! Screw you! No one listens to your show anyway. I‘m out of here.”
Oldie: “Just for the record, I listen. Also, LIU Atlas airs on TV2. Please watch it despite Doog. Uh…and have a nice day. PS, I love you Windsong.”
Windsong: “Aww.”
Snot Rocket: “He, like, even brought his own microphone to the interview. Like, he totally doesn’t want to use our microphones. He’s too good for us or something.”
Windsong: “Whoa. I can sense that now. Sorry brothers. I wouldn’t have brought him if I…”

Windsong: “Aww.”
Doog: “I thought that went well.”
Cam: “Better than I expected.”
Mike: “Better than anyone expected, really.”
Oldie: “I got to meet Windsong, so there’s that.”
Doog: “So, you’re not mad?”
Oldie: “About what? I knew this was going fail walking in. You’re Doog. And it was live radio.”
Doog: “At least I can live up to your ridiculously low standards. Well folks, A14-S25 is a space station that rests above the galactic plane. It houses Galactic Radio which broadcasts subspace radio signals to all the worlds of the galaxy. It also rests above the astral plane because it is full of space hippies. Oh well, see ya!”
Note: A14-S25, like M31-P5, is named for the compressed star in the center of its Fusion Star Chamber. The star is too small to get an actual name, so it’s named for is coordinates, or location, in the galaxy. See M31-P5 for more details.
