Perhaps it is me.

But has that green/blue ring circling the Bungie Aerospace logo always been there?

Thanks.

For some reason it just doesn't seem familiar.

The ''We'll see you starside''?

Wonder why they would mention it here.

Bungie's 7 steps to world domination:

1: Start independant gaming software company.
2: Dominate Mac platform; Launch assault on Windows platform.
3: Announce killer gaming title.
4: Acquire strangely addictive Chinese food company.
5: Recover Ling-Ling's head.
6: Stage bloody coup of new parent company.
7: Take over world, shoot enemies into the sun with giant slingshot.

They are up to step seven. Bungie Aerospace; the thing that will shoot their enemies into the sun, Perhaps?

There has also been some speculation about it being a new game distrubition type thing, like Steam. Also could be it.

A new engine? Maybe.

However, Joseph Staten hinted at the next big game by saying:
'Wouldn't it be great if we could make a universe that was always there for you'.

I shall ponder some more.

Hmmm... has anyone noticed the "leaked" pics of bungie aerospace?
It looks kinda fake and I won't post a link for fear of the ban-hammer, but someone did post pics.

Confirmed fake, you can see that one of them is on Sandtrap, and features some concept art from ODST. Aerospace remains a mystery!

Does anyone other than me think that the background on the Areospace site is getting more crinkled and cracked? Probably just me, may have always been that way, but it looks diffrent if you look closely.
Maybe.

I personally Haven't noticed it however your theory may be plausable as there are three images. 1 0x0 by google analytics. another called enterOverlay.gif now this is a transparent gif so they could easily change the background without difficlty. The last image is splashbg.jpg this one could easily be re-uploaded when they want to. I might leave a link to a screenshot, just inspect element in chrome or firebug (for firefox) but as with other peoples fears, i duns like teh ban hammorz.

Per audacium ad astra!

From reading this forum and soaking up everything there is to know about Aerospace hitherto (plus investigating some speculation), I've reached the following conclusion:

IT IS MOST LIKELY A UDK-LIKE GAME DEVELOPMENT TOOL OR A STEAM-LIKE METHOD OF GAME DISTROBUTION. (Or ideally, both, in a world-dominating package with slingshot DLC.)

Personally, I think the idea of a game SDK the most apt - with some of the great technologies in Reach (and eighteen months with a greatly bolstered team thanks to the aforementioned aggressive job advertisements), Bungie is ideally placed to challenge Epic (with whom they have had good relations publicly through MGS) by making a game development kit. Assuredly, it would be crazily popular, but personally, I think that this is a fool's dream - though with Bungie you can never know; I'd like to be pleasantly surprised.

However, I think that the marriage of an Epic-like dev. kit with would be the most successful idea - to that end, they'd be killing two birds with one stone: Epic by supplying independent developers (Moonshot Games, perhaps?) with the tools to build games, and Valve by a Steam-beating distribution method to get these titles out to consumers. With a devoted following such as Bungie's - and on multiple platforms, as is their agreement with Activision - it wouldn't be a hard sell, and I can immediately see it becoming industry leader.

The specific namings of Aerospace and Grognok [sic - you know how it's spelt!] could pertain to this: Aerospace as the dev. kit itself, and Grognok the Steam-like client.

However, what I DON'T want it to be at any cost in a WoW-like ARG - this doesn't appear to be Bungie's style, and I think that their fanbase won't digest it well (what do you guys think?).

Just my two pennies (cents).

P.S. Look at the 'Goods and Services' part of the TARR document that's been mentioned - my idea would fit.

Be nice to noobs..Remember even MLG players were noobs at one point.

Bungie is building a colony ship for a mass exodus....or a game about space...Or better yet a Mass exodus colony ship launched by a giant slingshot and is packed with games about space?

But in seriousness I'm going for a space flight game maybe similar to EVE, but who knows.

i have a feeling this could just be a sub company like 343, instead it would be dealing with activision relation ship, but bungieareospace.org just freaks me out
plus the descriptions in the new t shirts

Consider not the meaning of this iconography. Reflection will only delay your departure. Instead, strap into this promise of a brave new world, and set controls for the heart of the great unknown.

i feel like we are on the verge of something big, a new revelution. only time will tell. but something big is about to happen and we are uncovering only the start of it in small pices. i can't wait to find out

also i don't know where i saw this but what does moonshot games have to do with this and why does this look like one of their t shirts. i think we are on the verge of a new gamebecause the recently did that beta tester sign up thing

No, you are incorrect. Back when BungieAerospace.com was just up, it had a variation of this as the logo. They then changed it to the circle. Don't mislead others.
