The Homeworld, the capital of capitals. Offworlders see the Earth as a shining, glizty place, full of life and riches beyond their wildest dreams.
In truth, it's the same blue waterball as 700 years ago, just with more skyscrapers.

About 50 years ago, the Moon was a straw libertarian's paradise.
Lavish resorts, caviar, corperation-owned infastructure, the Moon was seen as a shining symbol of Adam Smith's invisible hand,

Mars is the Americas, as the Americas were to Europe.
A shining beacon of hope and industry with dreams of their own identity.

Whenever you think of the sterotype of space as a boundless frontier full of new oppotunty, that's the general sort of vibe you get with Mars.
## Saturn
> Good work, team. That's enough for today. Can't believe we've come so far.
The most inhospitable colonised planet, Saturn's entire population consists mainly of miners and researchers,
with a notable exception being a single sports stadium.
