Bradburyom
Background
The Foundation Society have announced that Bradburyom is named after Ray Bradbury, the author who anticipated human migration to Mars in “The Martian Chronicles”, and described interactions of the new human population with native Martians. Despite being a work of science fiction, the Foundation Society believe that ‘The Martian Chronicles’ contain important messages about protecting the planets and environments we call home, and so believed that through naming a settlement in Bradbury’s honour, it would serve as a constant reminder to people everywhere about the importance of this goal. This is particularly important given the purpose of Bradburyom is to being the terraforming of Mars, turning it into a second earth and allowing for a far greater influx of people to the Martian Surface.
Services
- Basic Terraforming Capabilites - Given a period of 5 years and a budget of $50,000,000,000, the team at Bradburyom are able to terraform an enclosed area of radius 500m for human occupation
- Small Scale Environment Construction - For environments with a radius of less than 50m. terraforming may be performed in under a year, and for a radius of 100m this time period is 2 years, and price scales with radius from the above values
