SUMMARY:STARFLEET Medical Proxima Centauri Step Challenge
DESCRIPTION:Round trip to Proxima Centauri Step Challenge:\nWe at STARFLEET Medical are very excited to offer this fleet-wide challenge that is open to all members of SFI\, regardless of whether or not you are a member of STARFLEET Medical. Each month\, we will travel along another leg of our journey to explore and establish a human colony in the Proxima Centauri system.  \nProxima Centauri is a red dwarf star that is 4.2 light years away from Earth. As of 2022\, two exoplanets are known to exist within the system: Proxima Centauri B & Proxima Centauri D. Proxima Centauri B orbits within the habitable zone which means that liquid water can exist\, allowing for the possibility of life\, or at the very least the ability of the planet to support a human colony. The purpose of our mission will be to travel to the Proxima Centauri system with a colony ship\, establish the start of a human colony on Proxima Centauri B and return home. \nOne of the purposes of STARFLEET Medical is to encourage increased physical activity\, so our individual goal as participants will be to travel an average of 8000 steps per day. We hope that you choose to join us for our trip to Proxima Centauri so that we can enjoy the journey together while we individually maintain a higher quality of life! \nParticipation rules:\n• The step challenge will take place from March to December\, 2024.\n• The challenge is open to all members of SFI. You do not have to be a member of STARFLEET Medical to participate.\n• Participants can join at any point along the journey\n• Participants will keep track of their own steps each week and then report that total to their Regional Assistant Surgeon General. If you do not know who your Regional ASG is\, please consult the Office of the Surgeon General Current Serving Officers website\n• The only units that will be accepted are STEPS. Please do not submit calories\, activity time or any other units other than steps. They will not be accepted.\n• Participants in regions that are not staffed with an ASG\, can report directly to the Deputy Surgeon General by using this form\n• Steps must be reported within 48 hours of the end of the activity period. Late submissions will not be accepted –THIS IS A HARD DEADLINE – NO EXCEPTIONS.\n• If you are unsure that you will be able to report your steps on time\, report them early.\n• Certificates will be generated within 7 days and returned to ASGs for distribution to participants in their region.\n• Two certificates will be available: 1. Recognition of completion of the monthly goal of 8000 steps per day 2. Recognition of effort for members that were unable to achieve 8000 steps per day. \nWe hope you’ll join us for this long-term challenge. \nDr. Wade Poitras\nDeputy Surgeon General\nSTARFLEET Medical \nMay 2024: “FLY PAST PLUTO”\nOur ion drive is functioning at peak performance. We accelerated past Saturn last month and we will continue to accelerate until we reach interstellar space. \nOur next landmark of note is going to be Pluto. It will also be the last familiar object we see from our particular neighbourhood of the Milky Way. Once we cruise past that big\, beautiful heart\, we will be reaching the outer limits of our solar system and flying well beyond where any human has ventured before. \nThe schedule for May will be:\nWeek 1: May 1 to May 10\nWeek 2: May 11 to May 17\nWeek 3: May 18 to May 24\nWeek 4: May 25 to May 31 \nHIT IT!
