 /is/ a real email address!

Yes its likely to be prettty realistic the way we are going. I always find

aliens in games to be rather unrealistic considering we havent actually 
found any other life out there yet. Although they work pretty well in Star

Wars and Star Trek well apart from the blue ones with antennae on their 
heads. I just enjoyed travelling around other fantastic planets and star 
systems. I would have preferred more variaety in stellar objects etc but
the 
game was pretty interesting to play. I certainly hope Braben isnt going to

go all cute on us for any sequel assuming one is ever made.
