Space is Hot Right Now
Tapped Out Quest Information
Level: 5
Update: "The Marge-ian Chronicles" episode tie-in
Requirement(s): myPad
Required characters: Lisa, Mr. Burns, Normal Springfielders, Homer, Adults
Optional characters: Database, The Rich Texan, Artie Ziff

Space is Hot Right Now is a temporary questline in The Simpsons: Tapped Out. It was introduced in "The Marge-ian Chronicles" episode tie-in content update. It unlocked Exploration Inc.

Dialogue[edit]

Pt. 1[edit]

After starting the update
Paul Just look at Springfield. A few years ago, there was nothing here but acres of healthy green grass.
Paul It was just your typical post-nuclear-catastrophe wasteland. Lush greenery as far as the eye could see.
Paul And now, it's a bustling town once again.
Barry - Annoyed Honestly, I'm unimpressed.
Paul Seriously? Look at all the houses, and decorations, and people...
Barry I don't see too many premium items...
Paul Well, no. The owner of this town really SHOULD sink more cash into the project. It's money so well spent...
Barry If you let two entrepreneurial guys like us loose in here, it'd be RIDICULOUS how much we'd get done.
Paul What are you proposing?
Barry I don't know. We need a project. What are kids excited about today?
Paul I read somewhere that they like soccer, and the color green. And positivity. They dislike rudeness and shades of green they feel are too light or too dark.
Barry Hmmm. Not much to go on. We need to do a little market research.
Barry Let's hire some kids to be our ears.
Task: "Make Lisa Research What Kids Are Into". The job takes place at Springfield Elementary or the Simpson House and takes 2 hours.
If Database is owned: Task: "Make Database Do an Online Opinion Poll". The job takes place at the Java Server and takes 2 hours.
Barry The results are in, and the numbers could not be clearer. Kids are into space.
Barry And the hottest, most trending site in all of space is a little rock called... Mars.
Paul Then that's where we need to go. We should organize a mission to Mars.
Barry Keep in mind we have zero expertise -- and zero interest, to be honest -- in rocketry, math, exploration, or the future.
Paul But what we do have is passion. And passion will get you to Mars faster than any rocket.
Message We're not joking about this. Everybody loves space. Check out our tribute to the great beyond in the store!
Quest reward: Cash100 and XP10

Pt. 2[edit]

After completing Pt. 1
Paul I've been doing some research, and here's what no one will tell you -- going to Mars is EXPENSIVE. It costs MONEY.
Barry Yes, but raising money is EASY when you have passion.
Barry The moment our friends in the private sector get a load of our passion, they'll be throwing money at us.
Task: "Reach Level 11 and Build the Control Building".
Task: "Make Mr. Burns Cough Up Money". The job takes place at Burns Manor or the Control Building and takes 3 hours.
If The Rich Texan is owned: Task: "Make Rich Texan Sponsor a Mars Mission". The job takes place at the Town Hall and takes 3 hours.
If Artie Ziff is owned: Task: "Make Artie Ziff Waste His Money, Too". The job takes place at the Java Server and takes 4 hours.
Paul I told you raising $20 billion would be easy.
Paul Now all we need is astronauts.
Barry I agree. Besides a launch vehicle, a Mars lander, habitats capable of sustaining life on a barren rock...
Barry ...some way to grow food there, a means of communicating with Mars, and a staff of thousands here on Earth to monitor our Mars colony...
Barry - Annoyed Other than that, all we need is astronauts.
Quest reward: Cash100 and XP10
Exploration Inc.

Pt. 3[edit]

After completing Pt. 2
Paul We need some way to attract astronauts to our Mars mission.
Paul We should put on a show. Really dazzle the people. But not just any show.
Barry No. It should be the best show.
Paul I almost want to capitalize that name. The Best Show. That's how good this astronaut-finding show will be.
Barry We'll serve refreshments. Drinks, appetizers, handburgers...
Paul - Annoyed The word is "hamburgers."
Barry That's neither here Nora, there. How's Tuesday at 9:00 PM work for you?
Paul It's as good a time as any other. Now let's find us some astronauts!
Homer - Happy I'll go! I'm your first volunteer Martian!
Barry Former astronaut Homer Simpson! What an honor.
Homer - Guilty Last time I went to space, I almost killed everybody.
Paul Great, great. We'll give your application serious consideration.
Task: "Reach Level 20 and Build the Town Hall".
Task: "Make Adults Attend Town Meeting" (x4). The jobs take place at the Town Hall and take 3 hours.
Task: "Make Homer Try to Fit Into His Old Spacesuit". The job takes place at the Town Hall and takes 3 hours.
Paul I think that went well. But why so many questions about what we'll do if we find life on Mars? I thought Martians were science fiction.
Barry I wouldn't know. I'm not a sci-fi guy. Space stories always bored me, frankly.
Message Skeptical about life on Mars, eh? Well wait until they get a load of this guy.
Quest reward: Cash100 and XP10

Pt. 4[edit]

After completing Pt. 3
Barry The thing about space rockets is, if you don't build them EXACTLY right, they blow up.
Paul It's really no different than when we started that coffee company.
Barry Refresh my memory -- why didn't that coffee idea work?
Paul - Annoyed It would have, except it turns out there are already three coffee stores on every street corner in the civilized world.
Barry That's right. Circling back to this Mars fiasco, why don't we use some of our second-tier astronaut candidates to test out the equipment?
Task: "Make "Candidates" Be Guinea Pigs" (x3). The jobs take place at Exploration Inc. and take 6 hours.
Barry Were you as deeply moved as I was by the sight of most of our Mars equipment not blowing up when tested?
Paul A 65% success rate. It's pretty awe-inspiring.
Paul So the only remaining question is: who do we blast off to Mars for the rest of their lives?
Barry All I know for certain is: not Homer Simpson. Other than that, it's wide open, my friend.
Message Tune into this week's Simpsons and find out who the real candidates will be. Sunday 8/7 Central on FOX!
