Whats this you may ask?Basically the corp is to sell 2000 shares in itself to you, its membership, as part of a multi focused effort to raise sufficient capital to further your aims of Capital Ship Creation; Corp sponsored Capital Ship ownership; ensuring the financial viability of the corporation going forward (Members need paying for minerals, Tower setup costs will increase over time) and to offer you all a chance to own a peice of the corp which you have helped build and push in the direction it is heading today.
Why should you purchase shares you may wonder?Excepting the reason that you'll own a piece of your own work, and help our aims be reached much sooner, we hope to offer a Quarterly (3 Months) dividend of 30% of all contract & market sales made within that period (The wallet and the tools available to keep an eye on it, actually work very very well in this regard making it easy to track); providing a return, however small on your faith in your fellow corp members.

31st December 2009 (Or Nearest day we can do based on New Year celebrations etc).
The Corp has 3000 shares, who owns the rest?I do, well Mangala Solaris does. However I wont be taking a share of the Dividends, and to ensure this I shall return my holdings to the corp while the Dividend is done and then take them back afterwards.
What if the Offerings are not all taken up?The remaining shares will be rolled over into the next offering. Should the 3rd offering end and we still have shares left over a 4th will be created, however I do hope that in the next 9 months or so all shares will sell.
How do I purchase some shares?Post your required number here and then donate the applicable sum to the corp wallet and I will do the rest from Mangala.
What if I no longer want any shares?Then we will buy them back at sale price, or you can sell them onto other members who may wish to buy them (Price here is agreed between the seller & buyer, with no corp involvement).
Will this ever be opened up to our friends in EVE?In time once we are stable and doing very well at at least one of our aims, then we may look at opening this up to other people, however we shall cross that bridge when we come to it.
