Using nanotechnology to refine heavy and rare metals extracted from asteroids, our own moon and Mars means that Earth is safe from any major environmental catastrophe arising from energy production.
Our first Tethered Orbit Refinement Station, TORS I, ascended into orbit in 2034 over the state of Amapa, Brazil.
TORS II, anchored in the Pacific Ocean, rose into the exosphere in 2038, eliminating the need to exploit any of Earth’s own resources for Polæ’s energy uses for all future generations.
