Reading Time: 5 minutes

New robotic parts, deployed science, surface features, and more
provide exciting ways to explore space

NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Private
Division
and Squad
today announced that Kerbal
Space Program: Breaking Ground
Expansion

is now available for PC. Kerbal Space Program: Breaking
Ground Expansion
, the second expansion for the critically
acclaimed space sim, is an engaging, feature-rich content pack. This
expansion increases the objective possibilities once celestial bodies
have been reached by adding more interesting scientific endeavors and
expanding the toolset.

With Kerbal Space Program: Breaking Ground Expansion
players will have all new robotic parts that include hinges, rotors,
pistons, and more in a variety of different sizes. These parts encourage
the invention of deeply creative vehicles with further advanced

Deployed science is another major addition of this expansion, which
enhances the experiments and data-collection objectives that have gone
hand-in-hand with space exploration. Players will be able to utilize a
storage container in their craft that can hold various pieces of science
equipment. Upon reaching their destination, players can deploy equipment
to monitor and collect data through assorted methods and relay it back
to Kerbin, the Kerbals’ home planet. One scientific instrument, the
active seismometer, even tasks players to deliberately crash
contraptions into a celestial body to gather seismic data!

Kerbal Space Program: Breaking Ground Expansion also
changes the experience players have when exploring celestial bodies. New
surface features are scattered across planets throughout the solar
system and can be scanned utilizing a new robotic arm attached to
rovers. These surface features include cryovolcanoes, meteors, craters,
and many more mysterious objects for players to investigate.
Additionally, the expansion includes a new futuristic
space suit for the Kerbals so they can travel space in style.

“We are always listening closely to the ever-expanding Kerbal
Space Program
Community, and Breaking Ground addresses
a long-requested aspect of the game that we have been working hard to
fulfill: compelling reasons to explore and research planets,” said
Nestor Gomez, Lead Producer at Squad. “Players now have even more
reasons to explore the celestial bodies of the solar system.”

“The creativity of the KSP community is something that never ceases to
amaze us,” said Michael Cook, Executive Producer at Private Division. “Kerbal
Space Program: Breaking Ground Expansion
is packed with content
that we believe will add countless hours of fresh gameplay, as well as
generate some incredible new craft designs from players. We can’t wait
to see what they come up with.”

program for the alien race known as the Kerbals, and have access to an
array of parts to assemble a fully functional spacecraft that flies (or
doesn’t) based on realistic aerodynamic and orbital physics. Launch your
Kerbal crew into orbit and beyond (while keeping them alive) to explore
moons and planets in the Kerbol solar system, constructing bases and
space stations to expand the reach of your expedition.

Kerbal Space Program features three gameplay modes. In
Science Mode, players can perform space experiments to unlock new
technology and advance the knowledge of Kerbalkind. In Career Mode, you
can oversee every aspect of the space program, including construction,
strategy, funding, upgrades, and more. In Sandbox, players can build any
spacecraft that they can think of, with all parts and technology in the

FDA Has Granted Innocan Pharma a Meeting Date for LPT-CBD for Chronic Pain

fda-has-granted-innocan-pharma-a-meeting-date-for-lpt-cbd-for-chronic-pain

The regulatory approval process with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has commenced for Innocan’s LPT-CBD release technology, marking a key step in the advancement of non-opioid pain management

HERZLIYA, Israel and CALGARY, AB, May 21, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Innocan Pharma Corporation (CSE: INNO) (FSE: IP4) (OTCQB: INNPF) (“Innocan” or the “Company”), is pleased to announce significant advancements in the regulatory process for its Liposome-Cannabidiol (LPT-CBD) technology, which provides an innovative solution in non-opioid pain management. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) has granted Innocan an Investigational New Drug (“IND”) number and approved an initial meeting with the Company to discuss the strategic path forward.

 

 

The meeting with the FDA has been set for July 31, 2024, where Innocan will present its preclinical results and proposed clinical development plan. This meeting is key to launching human clinical trials for the LPT-CBD injectable drug, developed to provide a novel treatment option for chronic pain.

“We are very pleased with this crucial step towards launching our IND program for LPT-CBD in the United States,” commented Iris Bincovich CEO of Innocan Pharma. “This upcoming FDA consultation is pivotal, poised to set the stage for our clinical trials and drive forward our mission to revolutionize pain management. We look forward to the FDA reviewing our development program and providing us with guidance on our advancement to human clinical trials.”

Continued Iris Bincovich, CEO, “I thank Prof. Chezy Barenholz and Dr. Ahuva Cern of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, renowned experts in liposome research, for their continued efforts providing strong supportive data on LPT-CBD, enabling our upcoming engagement with FDA.”

LPT therapy, which requires only one single monthly subcutaneous injection, offers a groundbreaking alternative to opioid-based approaches. Addressing the critical opioid crisis, where, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, over three-quarters of drug overdose deaths in the U.S. involve opioids, Innocan’s LPT-CBD presents a compelling, life-saving alternative. In multiple pre-clinical trials, Innocan’s therapy has shown consistent efficacy of its LPT-CBD injectable treatment, through prolonged and controlled release of CBD in animals with chronic pain conditions.
