This future society is spread across different habitats in space and on Earth, all working together to create a better future.

One of the key values of this society is freedom, as people are encouraged to pursue their interests and collaborate in ways that are meaningful to them. However, the society also recognizes the importance of social cohesion and ecological sustainability. This is reflected in the design of the bioarchitecture spaceships, which incorporate recycling and fish ponds, as well as in the terraforming efforts and sustainable agriculture practices that are continuously being developed.

Education in this society is focused on depth and intentionality, with a particular emphasis on force multipliers that enable people to achieve more with less effort. Lectures are replaced by hands-on experiences, and people are encouraged to pursue their interests outside of the classroom. This has led to a culture of lifelong learning and personal growth, as people are able to pursue their passions and develop their skills at their own pace.

In terms of energy, the society has developed a cheap and abundant source that enables environmental protection and democratic access to resources like education. This has been a game-changer, as it has allowed the society to prioritize the needs of all its members, regardless of their socio-economic status.

From the zero-gravity sports that people enjoy, to the large-scale events like the Crystal Palace World Fair in space, this society is committed to making the future a better place for everyone.
