Christmas is here and Astro-Santa is out to deliver presents to all the good peasants and workers in the universe again! However, Earthforce and the other Terran factions report that Astro-Grinch has been sighted roaming Perilous Space again! Many speculate he is looking to stop Astro-Santa from delivering his presents!
Lyceum Scientists report that the wormhole to Lapland will stabilize in Sol on December 10th, 2021 for the beginning of the Christmas event! The event will continue until January 3rd, 2022. For the duration of the universe, Lapland will remain in Sol for any turn-in’s you may have forgotten to do.

Server Upgrade and Downtime Delayed
** Update ** Some of the hardware for the new server is having delivery delays, as such, the maintenance is canceled for the time being, we are aiming at Thursday but specific time will be provided with an update as soon as were sure.
As previously mentioned on a blog post, Star Sonata will be addressing some of the server lag issues with new servers. I am happy to announce that on November 30th, at 9PM Eastern, the servers will be going down for upgrades! The downtime is expected to last until 5AM Eastern, with more announcements being made as it is known to us.
We understand some players will be inconvenienced during the downtime, but we are expecting the servers to operate at twice their current speed. To help mitigate some of the lost playtime, we will be hosting the following event upon the server coming back up until Sunday night!
Event
50% Increase to Augmenter Drop Chance 100% Increase to Bindomite Drop Chance 100% Increase to Prospecting Node Respawns Crystal AI Invasion
Below are the expected server shutdown time for various time zones.

Ten Years of Star Sonata 2
It’s time to celebrate! Ten years ago today, 12th November 2011, our brave pilots stepped into a brand new universe. After years of work Star Sonata 2 was ready to be released, and while the road may not have been the smoothest, we have made some great strides in that time.
10 Years Event
To celebrate, we’re hosting an event running from 12th November, 18:00 UTC (13:00 server time) until 23rd November at 05:00 UTC (00:00 server time). During this time we’ll have a whole slew of bonuses running. Anyone who logs on during this time will receive a commemorative holoprojector, Sonata, Second Impression, in recognition of the event. Each day (that is midnight to midnight, starting on the 13th at 05:00 UTC) players who login will also receive a new, special item, a visage kit. There are a total of ten, one for each day, to collect. The ten visage kits coming with this event span the tech ranges from tech 1 to tech 22. More will be coming in the future.
The bonuses for the event are increased augmenter (50%) and bindomite drops (10%), increased chances on mod rolls for dropped items and loot (10%), and prospecting node refill rate (10%) and amount extracted (10%), and comet drops (50%) until 22nd!
Visage Kits
Visage kits are a new type of item. They can be combined with the item listed in their description to alter the appearance of that item. The item you are combining it with must be unequipped. Once combined the item becomes neurobound (so use your Bindomite before combining), however you can reverse the process at any time by selecting Dismantle from the right click menu on that item.

Server/Client Patch – 11/4/2021 – The Moonfighter Rebellion 1.3
2021·10·15by Kilando The Halloween event has started, and Spacey has been busy!
Spacey has opened wormholes accessing Plaguespace throughout the universe. From these wormholes poured hordes of vampyres, pumpkins, will o’ wisps, trolls, and undead space rats!
Please, help contain these intrusive beings until the plans to evacuate the universe are complete! If you run into one of the many entrances to Plaguespace, do battle the space rats inside to help stem the influx of them into our universe!
Spacey has informed us that Halloween will run until the universe collapses on November 6th! Happy Halloween!
November 6th, 2021 Universe Reset!
Lyceum Bulletin:
The Mad Scientist has done it again!
Reports are flooding in of an explosion radiating out from the laboratory located in Lunacy. After an experiment mixing Eridium, Adamantium, and Dark Matter failed to be conducted properly, the scientist was seen fleeing the lab yelling, “It’s not my fault!”
Nobody has seen or heard from the scientist since that date and authorities are advising everyone to begin packing for the universe relocation program! The containment unit housing the experiment has begun leaking an unknown particle into the universe. Lyceum scientists began studying the leaking particle shortly after receiving news of the explosion and have provided the following statement.
After extensive examination of the radiation leaking from the explosion site, top scientists predict the collapse of the universe to be on November 6th, 2021. Citizens are asked to ensure all personal assets and fleets are properly stored.
