Squad Update: 

No wars.  No elections. No Expansions (yet…coming soon).

Social engineering in LHS 3980 - pushing United 6 Andromedae into control (this will help us in 6 Andromedae).  Still in progress

Cheese. 

Pecorino is one of the world's most ancient cheeses. The three Pecorini trace their roots back to Sardinia's ancient history of traditional shepherding and cheesemaking, although the oldest Pecorino most likely comes from even before that, in the countryside near Rome.
