Premiere: Olsvangèr – In Orbit

The clockwork planet was a man-made world the size of a small moon. There were oceans, forests, cities, and even weather systems created by climate-control satellites. It was constantly in orbit.

Its energy came from an array of fusion reactors positioned around the habitat’s central axis. Massive superconducting rings distributed power to every district, while millions of solar satellites collected energy from the nearby star and beamed it back using microwave transmitters. The habitat’s atmosphere, temperature, and water cycle were all controlled by artificial intelligence system.

It all worked seamlessly. Except until today, when the oceans stopped moving.
