Tech-World

The first colony here – a Solomani outpost – was destroyed by the Sindalian Empire’s Punitive Armada. The world lay empty for hundreds of years, until the GeDeCo funded the construction of a starport here to encourage Imperium-Hierate trade through the Borderlands. To reduce the costs of constructing the starport, they contracted with renegades from the technologically advanced world of Neumann in Gazulin subsector. While the world of Neumann has the highest level of technology of any world in the whole sector, its use is heavily restricted by the Shield Church. The heretics were eager to take GeDeCo’s offer of a world of their own and funding to develop their science.   The human population of Tech-World is around four thousand. The robot population is around a million and rising, depending on how one tallies distributed intelligence computer with numerous slave bodies. Experiments in using nanotechnology, cloning and other technologies of questionable legality are ongoing, and Tech-world is attracting increasing numbers of researchers who wish to pursue lines of inquiry not permitted in the Imperium. GeDeCo refuses to put pressure on the TechWorld rulers to rein in their scientific experimentation, claiming that its contract with the Tech-World government begins and ends with the starport.   The Tech-World starport is a minor wonder of the subsector – the starport is a huge black ovoid that reconfigures itself dynamically to cope with rising or falling traffic. The interior walls are actually curtains of a smart bioplastic that can move and reshape themselves to create larger or smaller landing bays and warehousing. Every visitor is assigned a guide robot programmed to their needs, and security is assured by keying everything to the user’s genetic code.
