Pillar 04 / Space

Expansion beyond Earth

The Space pillar sets Auric's long-term direction for human presence beyond Earth through transport, orbital infrastructure, and future settlements.

01

Stations

Large Earth-orbit stations can become major infrastructure for long-term human activity in space.

02

Transport

Point-to-point spacecraft can move humans and cargo between destinations beyond Earth.

03

Settlements

Planetary settlements are a longer-term direction for human cities beyond Earth.
