It would be an excellent base of operation, no?

a better base of operations though, would be a space station made by us out of ants :3
we already have all the castes to make a building out of ants, plus, a vacuum inside the building is better than air inside the builfing if everyone can handle a vacuum

Still, couldn’t it be built off of an ISS base?

building new infrastructure off of existing infrastructure leads to more problems than buolding brand new infrastructure from scratch

I wonder how long would it take for people to notice such a space ant station orbiting then if it made no light

Round 53 - 6:00, May 9th, 2000
Round Summary
ACC seems to be preparing for something big at the noon of this day as the yesterday night’s massacre, or rather the aftermatch of, starts seeing more coverage…
The Organism Report
TO might be gearing up for some space exploration by itself as it’s already quite sophisticated armor has just evolved heat tubes that could probably allow for better thermal regulation in the dark void far above still (+100 ME)…
Speaking of the high places, it appears that the slowdowns regarding the development of the tower have also led the evolvous tissue to spend it’s “focus” over there, making the ant work even harder than what one could expect, though not quite as hard as some times before (3rd tower roll boost guaranteed, +75 tower meters).
Now sitting atop the freshly built layers to the peak of vespid engineering, looking far below TO tried to visualize the space around it better, with some ants flying around just to witness their lord and, to them atleast, god, which then by focusing on these seems to have had quite the extraordinary benefits on the spatial skills (+100 ME, extra mutation to @Trappist-1e). Out of this children swarm would soon emerge the special space ants, which still need a bit of training before they can make the Formic Union grasp the stars. While with it’s time at stake TO could make them navigate the 0 G well, it’s rather uncertain they are ready to hijack the “heavenly” tech-boxes yet (Space Ant 0G Movement). With not much time left in this place among the clouds, it just happened that a mutation helped the freshly trained cosmic ant rockets achieve their future tasks even better, with better rounding of the arthropodic skeletons and superior jointing of the many “zooids” making up a “space ant” (Perfected SSA).
Back in the mundane realm, from the highs when descending TO could spot a puddle by the side of the site of it’s capitol, where the prized verdant bacteria could reside in. The prediction was spot on, and so an important sample has been “reclaimed” (GSB Sample Item).
As the sun rose replacing the moonlight of the night, one last mutation for the time being has finished, having already begun a good couple hours ago. A new caste was born, this one not of building the FU or it’s influence however, but targeting the mankind instead - the slavish parasites now roam, though their actions may only truly begin if the one ant allows them to (+75 MH, +25 ME, Extra mutation to @domin2ktr)
Influence Report
It seems like the diplomats are handling the turmoil of the world still adapting to the sentient ants well… for now.
