DUST Search - why aren't the jove in dust?

I can add one little revelation to that:

There was a nifty (though graphically old) online series on youtube called "Clear Skies". If your homeland is England, you'll watch it and associate it with old tv shows like Blakes 7, and especially Red Dwarf.
...If you're not English, you may find the Clear Skies episodes kind of a dated yawn Ugh

.

But it touched on the Jovians from an EVE capsuleer perspective, and implied the most USEFUL thing the Jovians left us was (nano-type?) module technology that, if harnessed responsibly, can turn a ship's propulsion into something awesome.

Coincidentally, Dust DID have (no longer has) ONE vehicle module you could purchase that was JOVIAN, and improved your vehicle's propulsion better than anything else the game had to offer. Needed MAX skill levels to fit it and work it, but CHRIST it was good to me!

Prior to Patch 1.7, I got wise and purchased 12 of these sweeties for Logi vehicle use. ZERO cooldown periods, and FULLY PASSIVE, not active. Pirate

They DEFY and are COMPLETELY EXCUDED from the new duration and stacking limitations that CCP implemented in 1.7, which, for any player who is lucky to have one, gives you the kind of mobility that the devs are trying to make illegal in our gameplay. To my knowledge, this was the ONLY piece of Jovian stuff obtainable in Dust since the May release.

....I don't plan to take my "jovians" out of the garage again until we have Logistical vehicles restored, with full blown Planetary Conquest and full open interaction with EVE Online players.
The driver who stacks two or three of this Jovian module to her DS or HAV, could become,..."un-target-able" in the enemy crosshairs....... Shocked

A super epitaph to Jovian lore...

I had Jovian overdrives for my Dropship back in chromosome lol. They didn't actually do that much for my dropship's propulsion, but the afterburner surely made it fly 400 mph in whatever direction it wanted. But that was the glitchy afterburner doing that, not the jovian overdrive, trust me. Honestly, it won't make your vehicle go god-like speeds, all overdrives are passive low modules that don't need to be activated. Sorry to ruin your excitement, but they are just a little bit better than complex overdrives.

What if the Jove only passed this technology on as an experiment? What if the turnover rate of the Star Gods wasn't fast enough so an Immortal Warrior plan followed? They tinkered with immortality and are paying the price. Yet right next door there's a large population of people, plenty enough for a control group and guinea pigs.
