A House is not a Home

You might have realized that each year the transmissions from the Colony get rather sparse in March, April and May. The reason for that is pretty simple – since by now you should know that the most members of the Colony’s crew have their roots in Stuttgart, Germany, you should understand that the Colony is designed to make living in the happy orbit as easy for the crew as possible. That is why the creators of the colony decided to recreate the four seasons up here as well – and so, around April, all of us decide to leave their Googie-houses and enjoy the artificial sunshine here at the Colony. But at the end of May we decide to return and take our research up as if nothing has happened. You should do that to, from time to time.
