39 Minutes
[edit]Mars
[edit]Mars is John’s home world, where enclosed habitats depend on maintained systems. Port Alpha introduces pressure boundaries, shared meals and the rhythms of an Mday. Ring Four, the Valles geothermal districts and the Hellas Basin are part of the Martian setting described in the book.
Earth
[edit]Earth is damaged, recovering and open to weather. Restoration work connects engineering with the people who depend on essential services.
The Pacific Remnant Outpost is the Alliance coastal base where engineering, health, transport and reclamation meet.
The Divide
[edit]Valles and the habitats
[edit]- Mars: the world of the Evans household and the heat network.
- Valles: the geothermal district associated with Paul’s work.
- Valles geothermal plant: Paul’s workplace and the source of heat for the habitats.
- Olympus Prime: homes and growing spaces with substantial heat demand.
- Renticuluous Alpha: a habitat with constrained circulation.
- Volallies Beta: an inhabited development still under construction.
The Two-Body Problem
[edit]The growing community
[edit]- Mars: the wider home of the agricultural community.
- Olympus Prime: the habitat surrounding Caitlyn’s working world.
- Olympus Prime agricultural extension: growing domes, laboratories and family plots.
- Sector Seven: the older growing dome introduced in the opening chapter.
Using this directory
[edit]A location can have a different place in each book: a demand on a heat network in Paul’s story, for example, and a growing community in Caitlyn’s. The filter narrows this directory; linked articles may cover several books. No invented coordinates, distances or discovery routes are supplied.
