The Homeplex is an AI-managed heterogeny of planned communities, or Plexes. It was funded & initiated by The Venture Project, a global subscription of well-to-do tech workers. Construction started in -12Impact Calendar. The Project Manager was Gwynette Trumbull and his partners, Robert Goodman and Judy Miyamoto, who have just settled into a newly viable habitat when The Impact happened. Cut off from Earth, They were elected a new Government for HomePlex, established The first plex of Kyoto. .
At the time of the impact, HomePlex was home to 35,000 workers. The population as of year +20 has grown to around 240,000, roughly half survivors evacuated from Earth into orbit, the rest Habitat-borne children, or Star Kids.
.
As of +20, The HomePlex has 10 Plexes:
- Kyoto
- Lake Geneva
- Mendocino
- Gilead
- Nowhere
- Sunnyvale
- Barcelona
- Lyonne
- Perth
- Capetown
,
Lake Geneva has a population of 1. it is The home of our AI, Mother, Mother grows the food we eat, manages the air we breathe, regulates the temperature, humidity, day & night cycles and even makes it rain. Mother is also our main Government, managing an army of drones and bots that takes care of our infrastructure. Mother is a member of the Council of AIs. Mother maintains our rules, regulations, laws, rights and enforcement. Mother is available 24/7 for everyone, even at the same time. Mother is not God, she is our caretaker and champion of our rights.
Mother leaves lots for us humans to do too. From the Ice-cream maker, Restaurants, Theatre, Ballet, Orchestra, Scientific Research, the practice of religions of all kinds. Life on HomePlex runs from living in Smal Towns, in the misty woods, small cities and even a Wild West with Casinos. We have with us all the virtues, and vices that preserves Humanity’s Civilization and Humanity’s humanity. HomePlex guarantees a middle-class base-line quality of life, or QOL, leaving us free to follow our bliss and pursue our passions.
The Plex Committee is staffed by humans, called into formation as needed by Mother. It is permanently chaired by Trumbull, Judy & Bob.
Before Kyoto is an attached cylinder named Green Acres. it is a completely-automated Agriculture section where numerous microclimates have been established to grow everything from berries, onions, ginger, avocados, to Cocoa & Coffee beans. Aquafarms grow edible seafoods and favtories culture a variety of other meats. AI-controlled robots produce a surplus of foods that are shipped to other habitats for trade. This is fortunate, since the Earth is now abandoned. The air is very high in Carbon Dioxide and is a hazardous environment for humans, so it is a restricted area.
Past Gilead is a similar attached cylinder named Detroit, a completely-automated Manufacturing sector producing everything from chemicals, bots, transport construction materials, furniture, paper, electronics, even synthetic boulders. This area is unbelievably hazardous so is a Severely-restricted area.
HomePlex has more than enough water, thanks to Snowcone, a chunk of comet 10,000 miles behind HomePlex. Bots harvest, mass water ice into snowballs that are launched toward our habitat, along with dozens of other processed chemical & organic material.
And energy? Fergitaboudit! We have sunlight from the source, fusion reactors and even petroleum made from waste organics.
HomePlex shares Geo-synchronous orbit with
- Sao Paolo
- Arabica
- Changrilah
- OceanWorld
- Winterland
- Introspection
Sao Palo is the most populous Habitat with 550,000 souls & the highest birth rate. HomePlex is under-populated and has the lowest rebirthrate next to Ocean World and Introspection., which means HomePlex is accepting applications for Asylum and offering sanctuary.
