STATION SIX
THE STORY
The Current Situation
Station One has received an automated distress signal from Station Six, but no communication with the distressed station has been established. We are sending you, Minerva, our most specialized AI to investigate the Station Six distress call, and return with your findings.
Due to the recent overpopulation of Earth, humanity has needed to look to Mars as a new home. A trade agreement between the two planets to sustain life has been formed, called the Agreement of Mars and Earth (AME). This AME system relies on a series of unique space stations to ensure life on Mars is sustainable for the future of mankind.
​
Station One: Used as a communications hub for the AME, Station 1 maintains constant communication with Earth and Mars on matters such as crime, supply shortages, and requests for transfers between the two planets. Station 1 also acts as the auditor for all other stations, it being the highest in the chain of command.
​
Station Two: Used as the AME transportation hub. It deploys transport ships to Earth and Mars in order to collect and distribute resources across the two planets. It also provides transportation between Earth and Mars, as well as transportation between the stations.
​
Station Three: Used as the base for the highest law enforcement, the AME Corps. The AME Corps was created after the AME was established to ensure that there was law enforcement that had jurisdiction on both Mars and Earth.
​
Station Four: Used as a rest station between Mars and Earth. Transportations happening between the two planets are able to stop at this station to rest and refuel before continuing the long journey from one planet to the other.
​
Station Five: Used as a maximum security prison. Individuals deemed as extremely dangerous or violent are sent to this station to serve out life sentences.
​
Station Six: Used for the trading post between Earth and Mars. Each planet is responsible for providing materials and goods, which are then sent to Station 6 for processing and distribution between the two planets.
