RedPlanet — Sol Year 50 (Mars Year 70)
RedPlanet operates through three interconnected sectors — Media, Commerce, and Technology — each powering a distinct layer of the 3D simulation. Together they form the living infrastructure of the first immersive simulated world built across two realities.
Broadcasting across two worlds on one frequency.
RedPlanet Media is the colony's primary broadcast arm — home to the RedPlanet News Network, AI anchor-led video briefings, live space economy reporting, and original frontier storytelling. Where real Earth news meets the Martian narrative.
The economy of the first 3D simulated world.
RedPlanet Commerce powers the colony's economic layer — a live 3D simulated marketplace where districts, resources, and trade routes reflect a functioning Martian economy. From corporate zones to habitat markets, every transaction shapes the world.
The intelligence layer of the colony.
RedPlanet Technology drives the infrastructure behind the colony — AI governance systems, energy production networks, research hubs, and the platforms that keep the 3D simulated world operational. The machine that keeps RedPlanet alive.
RedPlanet is built on verified Mars science. Every location, hazard, and system in the colony is grounded in real data from NASA and ESA — then extended into the world of Sol Year 50 (Mars Year 70).
Home of New Olympus
The largest volcano in the solar system — 22 km tall, 600 km wide. Nearly 3× the height of Mount Everest, with a base the size of Arizona.
Primary Resource Zone
The largest impact crater on Mars — 2,300 km wide, 7–8 km deep. Atmospheric pressure at its floor is 89% higher than the Martian average. The warmest location on Mars.
The Colony's Time Unit
A Martian day is 24 hours, 39 minutes, and 35 seconds. A Martian year spans 669.6 sols — 687 Earth days, nearly twice as long as a year on Earth.
The Dust Surge Threat
Global dust storms engulf the entire planet roughly once every 3 Martian years, cutting solar power by 40–99% for weeks. The 2018 storm ended NASA's Opportunity rover after 15 years.
38% of Earth's
Mars gravity is 3.72 m/s² — 38% of Earth's. A 100-lb person weighs 38 lbs on Mars. Long-term exposure causes bone density loss and makes returning to Earth increasingly difficult.
95% Carbon Dioxide
Mars' atmosphere is 95.32% CO₂, 2.7% nitrogen, and just 0.13% oxygen. Average surface pressure is less than 1% of Earth's. Average temperature: −60°C (−80°F).
Every entry in the Colony Archives distinguishes verified science from fictional world-building.
