Canopus

Canopus' Mars Recommendation

This month's Mars Hotspot is the Martian Research Institute, created by Lord Chadd with the same elegance of design as in his romantic worlds, such as Varna. The Martian Research Institute is a small masterpiece of Martian architecture. It consists of four buildings placed symmetrically around a small courtyard: a thinktank, a gallery, a factory, and a transport center leading to an animated transport system. Dating from the early settlement period on Mars, it still looks good today, thanks to Lord Chadd's sense of detail and balance.

The Martian Research Institute can be reached by taking the Alba Railway from Mt. Olympus Spaceport (195N 308.6E 6.2A 140); board the Acheron Tour at Habitat Station and get off at the MRI (242N 188.5E 1.1A). If you're travelling from Earth, take the rocketplane to Mt. Olympus when you arrive at the Orbiting Spacestation (0N 953W 30.6A).

GooberKing's UTN Recommendation

Nottsville - AW 27000n 13000w 1.4a

Nottsville is a rather sizable town started in May of this year by Stonecoldfletch. (of AWFC fame) The architecture of some of the buildings in this town are stunning and the buildings themselves are quite informational, like the Building Administration building and the Teen Wrestling Federation (TWF) kiosk. Even the builds offered by some of Nottsville's other residents are worth a look.

Still, this town has plenty of space left to offer. Why not add your skills to this wonderful town? Join today!

Duskbat's Historical Recommendation

This land is very old Aug 1995 it goes back to. what was intended to be here I have no idea. It looks like current state of this place was how it was to be. everyone who visits leaves something and always find a way out to a place to explore. Could this be the junk yard of aw! Or the starting point for a long nite of exploring. Visit
100n 100e today see for your self the mess I talk of.

jupytr's COFMeta Recommendation

Harley Plaza & Entertainment Precinct
COFMeta 1s 988w (facing south)

Just start walking around and you'll notice tons of well built stuff here. There's a Jazz Club with nice ambience, a Transit Centre, a Hotel, Skyscrapers, Apartments, a Chapel, all nicely done.

And one more recommend, a fun one :)

Alien Abductions in Meta??
COFMeta 498n 168e (facing north)

Just walk right into the bleu beam of light and hang on :) Very creative use of the move and rotate commands, I might add. Well done!
