Astronomica
HumorFiksjonFritidWelcome to Astronomica, a science fiction OSR actual play podcast using the Stars Without Number RPG system. Join Star Master Stan and regular players Colin, Cullen, Geoff, and Kristen as they crew the definitely-not-piloted-by-a-rogue-AI ship The Admiral Grace. From encounters with magnificent space whales to battling intergalactic corporate scumbags, there is nothing this crew can't make way more complicated than it needs to be. Tag along every Wednesday and listen in as we learn that the true friends were the ones you decompressed and maybe accidentally spaced along the way.

- Ep 243: Every Box Crazy Bout a Skin Suit Man (01:10:27)
With the horror of the Fireside Chat's final days fully explored, Team Meatbag plunges ahead into the captain's probably not scary at all quarters. Mackie finds an adorable box that happens to be the exact piece of cargo the crew was hired to recover. Meanwhile, Coupons continues his quest to make Auggie happy again, and Hilde gets excited about an entirely different cargo. Later, the title of this episode makes horrifying sense. This recording does have the last of our bad mic audio but have...
- Ep 242: Mentor, the Flesh Baker (01:07:45)
So you know how sometimes you find a space wreck and people lived on it for a lot longer than you'd think was possible and also it's kind of a tragedy and kind of, uh, soupy? Well, I can promise you that this one didn't have any soup left. Anyways, definitely don't get stranded in space with nothing to eat but your fellow crew members. That's just a general PSA right there. If you enjoy the mildly unhinged antics of Stardaddy and his band of merry madpersons, be sure to subscribe on you...
- Ep 241: The Wreck of the Fireside Chat (01:16:02)

- Space Patrol: Operation Hades Pt 2 (01:00:12)
You know how Easter is a time for hunting eggs and dressing up as a giant rabbit that poops sugar and maybe catching up on whatever brand of religious fervor floats your boat? Well this ain't your grandpappy's Meta-Easter, that's for dang sure! Hold onto your togas because this party is about to get old school (okay, maybe it is your grandpappy's Meta-Easter, the one with that suspicious ship wreck story and only one leg). If you enjoy the mildly unhinged antics of Stardaddy a...

- Ep 240: Death-Poon for Cutie (01:32:50)
Time to find out what just chomped on the Auggie's precious drone. Oh yeah, we know it was kind of a cliffhanger - oh no, will the drone get eaten or whatever - but, like, you had to know, right? Meanwhile, Mackie enjoys his best day ever absent the rest of the PCs. Note: In this week's intro we have the response you should probably expect from us regarding the death of Charlie Kirk. If you'd rather skip it, fast forward to about the 3 minute mark. If you enjoy the mildly un...
- Ep 239: The Path Fewer Travelled (01:10:08)
It's an ambush! Or possibly we simply stumbled into a nest of local fauna that live here and were minding their own business before a bunch of blundering tourists stomped right on through their home.

- Ep 230: Rocko's Modern Basilisk (01:15:00)
So...we picked up this box. And it *says* it's a Class X Civilization Threat and that obviously *means* we should just destroy it and collect our paycheck.

- Ep 228: Don't Have Fun with It (01:09:20)
Time to do what Team Meatbag does best: turn a simple mission to impersonate a bunch of space bigots and steal their super special techno treasure into a slightly less simple mission to shoot holes in a bunch of space bigots. Will we remember the mission and make it out with the cargo in tact? Your guess is as good as mine!

- Ep 228: Get the Credits and Run (01:17:37)
With Yazid and the Azes ready to sale off in the great Spinoff in the Sky, Team Meatbag has a conundrum: Stick around to shepherd the newest member of their fleet through unknown weeks of bureaucracy or high tale it out of the system quick before the ship with the big guns figures out they aren't the Burt. Either way, Lydia is getting a distressing new therapy aid and Hopper is probably also doing something distressing with the captured Seom Gim hosts. Husks? People suits. If you enjoy ...

- Ep 225: Hiveminds and Hand Grenades Part 1 (01:17:09)
Now that we know the space battle turns out okay, time to check in with the away team we tossed directly into the path of our own missiles or whatever it is we shoot.
