Moon

From The Great Machine

Otherwise known as Luna, the single natural satellite of the planet Earth. The Moon was an early colony location for humans. Their first colony was founded in 2018 and was located in the Sea of Tranquility.

The colonies on the Moon are mostly industrial; the majority of the raw materials for Earthforce and other industries are mined on the Moon. The materials are mostly used in the huge Fleet Yard located in orbit around the Moon, where many of the Fleet's ships are serviced and built. It is also the site of several of the larger research and training stations. The majority of travel is underground, through a huge system of interconnecting shuttle tubes which allow movement between all of the domes and most of the large factory and mining plants.
