Signals

Signals are a phenomenon that no corporation overlooks. Their origin has been debated since the first discoveries. The more we know about them, the more questions arise.

Signals contain information about human technology forgotten on Earth. They include manufacturing plans, wiring diagrams, and user manuals.

Because much of the knowledge of the ancient civilization remains on Earth. Survivors only have access to limited technologies they brought with them. Finding any data within the signals is therefore extremely valuable, enabling the production of advanced technologies.

Signal interception quickly became not only a profession but also a fascinating pursuit of the unknown. This phenomenon is likened to the gold rush on Earth in the 19th century. Space adventurers, driven by the desire for wealth, embark on dangerous missions to find rare signals. These missions attract new seekers, risking everything to achieve their goal.

Each signal represents hope for acquiring unique technology or valuable manufacturing plans. However, the complexity of this process makes it not only a scientific challenge but also a dangerous expedition requiring courage, cutting-edge technology, and a fair bit of luck.

Distribution and Use

Manufacturing plans are then distributed to station markets, where they are bought by manufacturers. They use them to produce technologies essential for the survival and progress of humanity.

People did not bring technologies for efficient data handling. Magnetic tape media in space degrade quickly. Repeated reading and copying of data damages it, leading to a loss of usability.

Some manufacturing plans are extremely valuable, and corporations are willing to allocate incredible resources for them.
