Nubia Matiba

> *The granddaughter of Appolo Matiba, Nubia entered the public eye as a socialite dabbling in music and entertainment. But now, diverging from the path of her scandal-prone mother, Nubia has committed to learning every aspect of her grandfather's empire, with an eye toward eventually inheriting the Horizon dynasty and carrying it forward to new heights.*
>
>

## Strategy

When you assign the epic governor - **Nubia Matiba** - to a city, facilities in that city that reduce the world's pressure levels will reduce pressure even more.

Secondly, facilities that produce revenue, such as the Spaceport, will produce even more revenue. This effect does not affect Culture Revenue, which is earned through events such as The Mother Lode, nor does it affect revenue earned through the Space Elevator.

Thirdly, upgrading existing facilities in that city will cost less credits. This effect does not affect the costs of building brand new facilities or facilities that are already being built.

This governor's power booster ability will only affect Pressure Reduction and Revenue, not Upgrade Cost, since Upgrade Cost cannot be boosted.

## Lore

Horizon CEO Appolo Matiba has a number of grandchildren to his name. In spite of their pampered upbringing, or perhaps because of it, most have lived mundane and unambitious lives. But Nubia, the daughter of his eldest child Vivica, has always broken the mold.

⁣Demonstrating the same Midas Touch that her grandfather was so famous for, Nubia built a music empire in her early twenties while simultaneously earning a Master's in Global Business and an MBA in Entrepreneurship. Nubia believed she could guide her own destiny with these accomplishments, yet even after going quintuple Platinum with her single "Slow Dancing in Hyperspace," she realized life as a pop star would mean forever being told where to go and what to do.

⁣It was at this point she turned her focus back home to the family business, and to her grandfather's recent decisions at the Horizon Corporation. Setting her sights on a languishing and over-budget program to terraform the atmosphere of Venus, Nubia proposed a complete overhaul of Horizon's terraforming efforts thus far, with herself as de facto project lead. Her grandfather was enamored with the plan, and even more with the idea of bringing home this ambitious, confident prodigy who bore his name.

⁣With so many rival factions vying to claim any small patch of the solar system as their own, Horizon's newest rising star has her work cut out for her. Yet Nubia is already looking a dozen moves ahead, making plans to expand the company's portfolio beyond what even her legendary grandfather could have imagined, and to cement herself as the heir apparent to the greatest financial powerhouse in history.

## Trivia

* Vivica Matiba-Cavalcanti, her mother, is another collectable governor.
* She was part of the Under Pressure time limited event.

Zeke Peña

> *One of the most feared partisan fighters in the Hephaestian Revolution, Peña has made a career out of destroying terraforming facilities and Gaian outposts in the name of Planetary Rights.*
>
>

## Strategy

When you assign the common governor - **Zeke Peña** - to a city, the maintenance costs for the facilities in that city will decrease. This effect can not be boosted, so this governor does not have the power booster ability.

There are no maintenance costs on Beginner mode, so this effect does nothing on that mode.

## Lore

From TerraGenesis' instagram account.

Contrary to popular belief, the Sons of Hephaestus are not united as a single philosophical organization. Adherents to the teachings of Te Hau Arataki exist in a constellation of loosely affiliated groups, the majority of which are collectives of workers and machinists who act as non-violent advocates of the Planetary Purity movement. That being said, there are also those who choose to take the fight against terraforming in a more direct, dangerous direction, and the resulting chaos is where Zeke Peña feels most at home.⁣

Where Neil Jansson represents the clean-cut, just-folks, neighborly face of their campaign, Peña has become famous in his own right as the clenched fist of the Kaitiaki, the personal enforcer of the infamous Rex Jansson, leading black ops raids against terraforming installations throughout the solar system. These strikes have been condemned by many as terrorist attacks, while others hail Zeke and his fellow partisans as principled protectors of their homeland. His two most recognizable features among the masses are his facial scars, earned while leading a prison riot during a twelve-week stay in a Gaian interrogation facility, and his missing right arm, the story of which remains legend. The two most popular rumors among Hephaestian troops suggest that he either lost it by disabling a massive hydrogen processor with his bare hand, or that his environment suit was punctured at the start of a mission and he chose to let the arm go rather than scrub the op. Among the few who know of his volatile relationship with Pim Jansson, it's whispered that he may have lost it during one of their frequent (and oftentimes violent) rendezvous.⁣

Peña remains a fugitive at large, wanted for crimes against multiple nations on seven different worlds throughout the system. Even a handful of his ideological allies in the Sons have discussed the possibility of tracking him down and turning him in as a gesture of international goodwill. Not that such discussions ever made it very far: too many of the Hephaestian hardliners still support him, and the rest are too scared of him to try.

## Trivia

* Zeke Peña is regarded as governor representing TerraGenesis on the Facebook homepage wallpaper of Tilting Point.
* Due to his name, he is most likely of a Spanish or Latin American descent.
Rafael Francisco Nogueira

> *The so-called "Pioneer of Laissez-Faire Ecology," Nogueira got rich from UNSA incentives for not farming rainforest land in South America, and in the process helped stabilize Earth's fluctuating oxygen levels during the 22nd century.*
>
>

## Strategy

When you assign the common governor - **Rafael Francisco Nogueira** - to a city, facilities in that city that increase the world's oxygen levels will increase oxygen levels even more.

## Lore

There is a belief in business that two sorts of people exist: those who find ways to make themselves rich, and those who rely on government aid to stay afloat. But there are also those wily businessmen like Rafael Francisco Nogueira who exist at the intersection of these ideas: he learned through years of studying global markets that once you sense the winds of change, you can find money simply falling from the sky and position yourself to catch it.

Nogueira entered real estate at a time when few would wish to make a home anywhere on Earth. While the worst of the Sundering was over, the shockwaves of the event could still be felt across the globe, including in the delicate ecosystem of South America's rainforests. Rafael's colleagues sought to expand development projects into the jungle to make up for their profound losses, but the newly empowered UNSA was bearing down on them, levying huge penalties for clear-cutting the land that could be used to re-stabilize the planet. And while they sank billions into fighting the UNSA in court, Nogueira instead saw an immense opportunity in the subsidies being offered to preserve the rainforest.

Rather than buying land to build condos, he shaped his business around buying wilderness property on the cheap, and then sitting on it and cashing his subsidy checks. It soon became clear that he could turn a significant profit through minimal conservation effort, simply by claiming as much land as possible and doing nothing with it. By the time the UNSA caught wind of Nogueira's strategy he had laid claim to two-thirds of the Amazon, as well as an enormous fortune.

This approach to the biosphere business, which Rafael himself dubbed "laissez-faire ecology," appealed greatly to the Horizon Corporation. They decided to hire Nogueira, knowing that as forests began to sprout on Mars and Venus, the people invested in those planets' successful terraformation would be dependent upon the greenery which they owned. Nogueira, now wealthy beyond his wildest dreams, was happy to take his legitimate enterprise beyond the stratosphere, especially as it helped him avoid any number of lawsuits from the UNSA headed his way.

## Trivia

* The name "Nogueira" is Portuguese, implying that he is Brazilian.
* He is of Latino origin.
Vaalbara/Dialogue

*Back to Vaalbara*

*Next*

After picked a faction (only UNSA, Horizon and FFI are available), a dialogue starts playing. At the end of the dialogue you can start playing Vaalbara. The dialogue has no impact on the missions you're given. The fastest way to skip through it is to click 'You can call me...' when it comes up, but you could also choose to enjoy the lame humor in the dialogue instead :).

## Dialogue

*Back to Vaalbara*

Steve

> *Steve likes to make stuff.*
>
>

## Strategy

When assign the rare governor - **Steve** - to a city, the facilities in that city will cost less credits to maintain. Facilities do not cost anything to maintain on Beginner mode, so on that mode this effect will not do anything.

Secondly, building new facilities in that city will take less time. This does not affect upgrading already existing buildings or facilities that are already being built.

Neither of the effects this governor has can be boosted, so this governor does not have the power booster ability.

## Lore

From TerraGenesis' Instagram account.

There is a name which, upon uttering in terraforming circles, inspires equal parts awe and dread. An engineering boogeyman of sorts, the name represents the boundless enthusiasm of one who can't help but build and innovate, mingled with the inevitable fallout of unintended consequences, and all the bewilderment and frustration that comes with it. That name... is Steve.

⁣Born to an eccentric family of entertainers who shunned the idea of last names, Steve found he had little in common with his siblings who eagerly sought the adulation of cameras and crowds. He preferred instead to work behind the scenes in various crafts such as studio tech and set design, though his elaborate mechanical constructions led to a number of accidents (thankfully, none of them fatal). Considered very much the black sheep of his clan, Steve knew there must be a place beyond Mars where his unchecked architectural passion would be appreciated.

⁣That's when a fateful broadcast came through his homemade interplanetary radio, the first one made that hadn't immediately burst into flames. It was the Sons of Hephaestus, putting out a call to every industrial-minded spacefarer interested in joining up with their cause. Steve had no interest in their politics, but leapt at an opportunity to win praise for his unique engineering prowess. Upon hearing that Steve would build massive habitations quickly for a mere pittance in credits, the Sons' leadership signed him up to travel the cosmos, a decision they've questioned ever since.

⁣Have you ever had a Hab Dome suddenly jump to level X, causing more coastal habitations to flood? Have you found yourself stuck on a single terraforming project because all your credits have mysteriously disappeared? Has a rogue bit of code caused a flagship event to misfire, leaving your population befuddled and fearful of what calamity might befall them next? You have Steve to thank. May we forever raise our fist to the stars and curse his name.

> *The central figure of the "Bring the Heat" music tour and social campaign, Sepúlveda is a musician-turned-activist who is credited with helping to turn the tide of public opinion toward the terraforming of Ganymede.*
>
>

## Strategy

When you assign the common governor - **Miguel Akna Henriquez Sepúlveda** - to a city, facilities in that city that produce heat, such as the Borehole, will produce even more heat.

## Lore

From TerraGenesis' instagram account.

The core message of the Daughters of Gaia, that it is the duty of mankind to bring barren worlds into full bloom across our solar system and beyond, grabs at the hearts of many thousands of followers all on its own. But to truly enliven the imagination, and to stir the passions of a mass movement of terraformers and avid supporters, nothing beats the power of music. And fortunately for the Gaians, they have harnessed unrivaled star power with the endorsement of Miguel Akna Henriquez Sepúlveda, the voice of a new generation.⁣

Embracing the performer lifestyle at just 16, Miguel's earliest explorations of music harnessed a retro style, making use of the string and percussive instruments of a bygone era, when spaceflight was still new and the solar system full of potential. But as his popularity on Earth grew with hits like "Starchild" and "Ingrávida Noche", Miguel began to pursue a more progressive sound, one that could perhaps only be found outside of Earth. He began a pilgrimage to various inner solar system locales in order to experiment with low gravity instrumentation, and to capture the natural sounds of worlds coming alive for the first time. It was during these travels that he became acquainted with the Daughters of Gaia, and while not a spiritual person by nature, the poetic whimsy of their core philosophy made Miguel a true terraforming believer, and he vowed to do what he could to inspire more.⁣

Miguel's alliance with the Gaians is what ultimately led to his greatest musical achievement: the “Bring the Heat” music tour, which began on Earth but carried a die-hard fandom of thousands on a years-long journey to Jupiter, to concerts on all four major moons ending with Ganymede, the Gaians' main target of public interest. The epic concert was broadcast across the solar system, and is largely credited with drawing funding and sentiment towards the eventual terraforming of Ganymede. Everyone remembers where they were when Miguel performed "Underneath the Ice" to close his tour, and hundreds who saw it live chose to remain and see the Gaians' work done alongside him, if only to be blessed with more of his music as Ganymede began to come alive.

## Trivia

* His name implies that he is Hispanic.
* His clan name, "Akna," comes from the Akna Montes region of Venus.
* He shares his clan name with the governer Kainoa Akna Kalani.
Water/Reduction

If your world has Water, some of it may be frozen in ice or held in the atmosphere as vapor. If so, the **sea level** is reduced, but the **overall water level** remains the same.

The **sea level** is the amount of liquid Water on a world. If you lower or increase Temperature, some of it freezes or evaporates. This reduces the sea level.

The **overall water level** is the amount of liquid Water *plus* the ice or vapor. To reduce the overall water level, you need to build Water reducing facilities, and vice versa.

## Ice

Water on high elevations and the poles of your world will freeze if Temperature is below 300,000 mK. The colder the world, the more Water freezes. Below 200,500 mK, all Water is ice.

Increasing Temperature will cause ice to melt and raise the sea level again, and vice versa.

If you check the "Water" tab on the Stats Page, you will see how many percent of Water is frozen. You will also see how many centimeters of Water is frozen, listed as 'Frozen in Ice'. For example, if the total water amount is 1,000,000 cm but 25% of it is frozen, then the amount of ice will be 250,000 cm (750,000 cm is liquid, which is the sea level).

Cities can be built on ice, as long as the ground below the ice is above the sea level. Even if the ice melts under the city, the city won't drown. A city also won't be destroyed if it was built on dry ground that was later covered in ice - only liquid water can destroy cities.

## Vapor

Water will evaporate if Temperature is above 300,000 mK. The hotter the world, the more Water evaporates. Above 399,500 mK, all Water is held in the atmosphere.

Decreasing the temperature will cause vapor to precipitate and raise the sea level again, and vice versa.

If you check the water tab on the Stats Page, you will see how many percent of Water has evaporated. You will also see how many centimeters of Water is retained by the atmosphere, listed as 'Vapor in Atmosphere'. For example, if the total water amount is 1,000,000 cm but 25% of it is vapor, then the amount of vapor will be 250,000 cm (750,000 cm is liquid, which is the sea level).

If there is enough Water to flood your world, but it isn't flooding because some or all of it is vapor, you will receive this notification:

### Hidden Oceans

*The water content of [world] is rising significantly. While the planet is still too hot to retain much liquid on the surface, this water will rain back down when the temperature is reduced.*

*Keep an eye on the vapor in your atmosphere, and make sure it doesn't threaten to flood your world when your planet cools!*

## Pressure and Water

If Pressure falls below 600 Pa, all liquid water will instantly freeze if Temperature is below 300,000 mK, or vaporize if Temperature is above 300,000 mK. Also, all vapor will freeze if Temperature drops below 300,000 mK, and vice versa. If Pressure is increased back to above 600 Pa, varying amounts of ice or vapor will instantly change to the liquid state, depending on how close Temperature is to 300,000 mK. Be very aware of the OVERALL water level and Temperature before increasing Pressure to above 600 Pa.
Tomoya Mukai

> *As part of a Horizon public relations campaign in flooded communities on Earth, Mukai developed a process for rapidly reinforcing buildings and communities to help them get back on their feet.*
>
>

## Strategy

When you assign the common governor - **Tomoya Mukai** - to a city, facilities in that city that reduce the world's water level will reduce water levels even more.

This effect is very useful for worlds with hidden oceans, or for Vaalbara.

## Lore

Earth's failure to address impending climate disasters put its residents in great peril. While rampant wildfires and rising sea levels in the pre-space era called for long-term solutions, acceleration of these events meant lives needed to be saved now, but many governments were slow to respond to the crises. Tangled bureaucracy and science denial meant that the fate of millions was left in the hands of brave individuals; thankfully, Tomoya Mukai was one such hero.

Initially, Mukai had dreams of winning Olympic gold in shot put; after sustaining a career-ending injury, her sponsors dropped her to focus on more promising athletes. While receiving treatment for her injury, she developed an interest in medicine, and soon began her career as an emergency responder in the north wards of Tokyo. Her instructors quickly recognized her aptitude and passion for rescue ops, assigning her to all crises from minor floods to nuclear meltdowns. She found local authorities far more skeptical of her, but she always managed to put forth plans that more experienced responders had not considered, saving countless lives as a result.

When she began leading international teams, natural disasters had become widespread and chaotic, culminating with the ultimate disaster known as The Sundering. Instead of a false personal assessment of Mukai by local governments, she faced something far worse: political gridlock. Petty disputes between parties meant that Tomoya rarely received the support she needed; rather than wait for the government's go-ahead, she chose to lead her own team into active floodzones. This action saved even more lives but also landed her in hot water with spiteful leaders.

Thankfully, the Horizon Corp heard about her heroic exploits; Appolo Matiba himself held a press conference with Mukai, offering to fund her rescue campaigns personally. While Tomoya suspects she's being used for PR, she now has leverage not only to guide countless worldwide rescue ops but to fund infrastructure projects in vulnerable communities to guard against future disasters. So long as Horizon keeps footing the bill, Mukai is content to focus on saving everyone while answering to no one.

## Trivia

* She is likely Japanese, as her name is of Japanese origin.

Titania

*Not to be confused with Titan*

## Paradise Habitability

> ***Titania** is a Shakespeare lover's dream: drawing its name from the queen of the fairies in A Midsummer Night's Dream, every surface feature is named for a female character from one of the Bard's plays.*
>
>

> *Made of roughly equal parts rock and ice, Titania is the largest moon of Uranus and has a wide variety of craters, canyons, and scarps. We expect it to make a decent home for humanity, but building that home will be a challenge.*
>
>

## About

Titania is the largest moon of Uranus. It's also the second farthest of five Largest moons of Uranus.

## Strategy

Titania is another moon with a hidden ocean in its ice caps that you will need to get rid of before terraforming it if you want to avoid flooding the world.

## Trivia

Titania was discovered in 1787 by William Herschel.

Titania is named after the queen of the fairies in Shakespeare's *A Midsummer Night's Dream*.

Titania has a thin atmosphere composed of carbon dioxide, methane and nitrogen.
Zoological Society

> *Ultimately, the single most important factor in any ecological effort is education: not only does it help create the next generation of scientists and specialists, it also helps teach the public why the effort is important in the first place. By establishing a Zoological Society to help spread public interest in ecology, we take a large step toward establishing the global biosphere.*
>
>

## Introduction

**Zoological Society** allows the addition of terrestrial species when playing with the biosphere feature.

## Level Charts

Beginner Mode differs in time needed compared to Normal Mode. The Culture modifiers can alter the total *Biomass*, *Population*, *Credits*, *Research Time* and/or *Construction Time* gained/lost for the buildings/research.
Transit Network

> *It's not enough to simply reach land on a planet, you also have to be able to get around on its surface. A robust transit network will allow for greater exploration and colonization of the surface, encouraging more people to immigrate and allowing locals greater access to the frontier.*
>
>

## Introduction

This **transit network** greatly increases the population growth in the city it is built in. Because this facility removes biomass, you might have to counteract it by increasing the biomass.

## Level Charts

Beginner Mode differs in time needed compared to Normal Mode. Your world's Culture has an effect on this facility's stats regarding *Biomass production,* *Credit cost*, *Research Time* and *Construction Time*.

### Normal & Expert Mode

† This stat is only available in a Biomass game.

‡ This stat is only available in a Biosphere game.
Solar Shade

The **Solar Shade** very significantly lowers Temperature on the corresponding world by blocking large amounts of sunlight with a large orbital object. As a result, this facility also reduces Biomass, likely due to blocking sunlight from plants, and removes Credits due to it being labor intensive. While this is very effective, the Aerostat Platform may be a better choice than this because it increases Credits instead of spends them.

Description:
*It's a concept of unparalleled ambition, but that doesn't make it impossible: an enormous solar shade, orbiting between the planet's surface and the sun, cooling the entire planet and allowing us to thin the atmosphere. It will be expensive and it will be difficult, but if successful, it will take our efforts at planetary engineering to a whole new level.*

## Level Charts

### Normal & Expert Mode

† This stat is only available in a Biomass game.

‡ This stat is only available in a Biospheres game.
Zora Ikhwezi Michel

> *Depending on who you ask, Dr. Michel is either a genius on the cutting-edge of Gaian genetic research or a dangerous madwoman headed for disaster. She's been responsible for countless breakthroughs over her career, but her tendency to experiment on herself has left many with deep ethical questions.*
>
>

## Strategy

When you assign the common governor - **Zora Ikhwezi Michel** - to a city, facilities in that city that produce biomass will produce even more biomass.

If you have the Biospheres function enabled instead of the biomass function, this effect will do nothing.

## Lore

The space age is a time of radical transformation. From the first settlements on Mars to expansion beyond the belt, stubborn humanity has had to grapple with countless new realities. Many advances have been embraced as necessary or beneficial, but there are still those perspectives on the fringe of normal society. At the fore of one such discipline, genetic alteration, proudly stands Zora Ikhwezi Michel, a Gaian researcher far ahead of her time and outside most observers' comfort zones.⁣

Dr. Michel was born into the Daughters of Gaia on burgeoning Ganymede, to the small Ikhwezi clan. She took to Gaian gospel right away, her analytical mind naturally embracing any philosophy that brings observable change. At the same time, members of Zora's clan encouraged her to think beyond what the Rose Queen or her Sisterhood preached, to consider what can be achieved through science untethered by gospel. She became top in her class in genetics and biochemistry, and while her clan had rarely gained much notice, Alana Freyja Lee recognized Zora's undeniable talent.⁣

She was granted her own research team to study flora found in other solar systems. Michel soon became enamored with her samples from new unnamed planets, and fascinated by their interactions with Earth counterparts. Knowing the Daughters' terraforming plans would ultimately threaten these species, she developed the unique view that humans should first alter themselves in an attempt to adapt to new surroundings. This proved unpopular with her peers, so she took the radical step of altering her own genetic code with the nucleotides of extremophile creatures from Earth and abroad. Her self-inflicted experiments have made Zora more resistant to extreme temperatures, less in need of oxygen, and even somewhat able to breathe underwater.⁣

Her appearance has made Dr. Michel and her movement more of a public oddity, but her views even cause turmoil within the Gaian world, for by advocating that humans adapt to new planets, she calls into question adapting planets to suit humanity. But she's convinced that her wisdom will be seen in time. After all, she now sees more clearly than anyone, even in the dark.

*From Terragenesis's Instagram page*

## Trivia

* Her clan name, "Ikhwezi", indicates that she comes from the Ikhwezi Vallis region of Venus.
Soil Farm

## Introduction

This **soil farm** has the ability to raise the biomass of the body it is on. This process doesn't affect any other terraforming statistics. Levels beyond **V** are only reached through events.

"*A few plant species will be able to live in the local dirt as-is, but most will require the sort of bio-rich soil they would find back on Earth. Eventually those sort of soil will be produced naturally by the biosphere, but we can get a jump on the process by manufacturing soil manually and introducing it into the environment.*" - Ingame Description

## Level Charts

Beginner Mode differs in time needed compared to Normal Mode. The Culture modifiers accounts for the total *Biomass*, *Population*, *Credits*, *Research Time* and/or *Construction Time* gained/lost for the buildings/research.

## Special version in All Hands on Deck

The Soil Farm in this event differs in that it produces +10 biomass (2.5x more) instead of +4. All other gains are adjusted accordingly. The in-game description also differs, as shown below.

"*Conventional agriculture has squeezed out every last nutrient from farmlands without replenishing them. Instead of abandoning dried out fields, we can restore the health of our impoverished soil and mitigate the effects of climate change.*"
Kainoa Akna Kalani

> *A promising Lieutenant Commander in the Gaian Navy, Kalani made her name during the first series of submarine dives under the ice of Europa looking for evidence of native life. Since then she has become an expert advisor for deep-water exploration within the Gaian military hierarchy.*

## Strategy

When you assign the common governor - **Kainoa Akna Kalani** - to a city, facilities in that city that increase the world's water level will increase water levels even more.

## Lore

Kainoa Akna Kalani was literally born into Gaian Imperial Navy. Her mother gave birth while serving on the Gaian flagship, and Kalani spent her childhood on military vessels and outposts scattered around the solar system. Both her parents were seasoned interplanetary explorers with successful naval careers, and Kainoa never questioned her destiny of a life of military service. But as she grew older she also became fixated on oceanography and marine biology, which opened her eyes to a whole world that was almost totally unknown to Gaian society on the scorching and toxic surface of Venus. On the day that she came of age, Kalani announced her intention to study at the newly-established Irai Leima Naval Academy, specializing in maritime exploration.⁣

After serving on several missions in the watery oceans of Earth and the methane seas of Titan, Lieutenant Commander Kalani was put in charge of the "IGS Mildred H. McAfee", a submarine that had been tasked with descending through the 20 kilometers of ice which blanketed Europa, to explore the pitch-black oceans below. On their nineteen-day expedition, Kalani's six-woman crew circumnavigated the Moon twice, produced the first bathymetric maps of Europa's ocean floor, and (according to persistent rumors) encountered a number of strange lifeforms and unexplainable phenomena, the exact nature of which was subsequently been classified by the Gaian High Command. ⁣

After her famous mission, the young officer became a minor celebrity throughout the solar system. Today she is recognized as the premier authority in deep-water exploration within the Gaian capital of Ishtar. But while her professionalism and talent have served her well, her personal fascination with astrobiology has been seen by many as antithetical to the Gaian reverence for Earth-based life. She has therefore become a somewhat controversial figure in the Gaian establishment, a symbol of what some refer to as "second-wave Gaianism" or "Xeno-Gaianism" popular among the younger generation. Only time will tell how far Kalani's thirst for discovery will take her, or what new mysteries she may discover beneath the waves.

## Trivia

* Her first and last name imply that she is of Hawaiian descent.
* Her clan name, "Akna," suggests that she comes from the Akna Montes region of Venus.
* She shares her clan name with the governor Miguel Akna Henriquez Sepúlveda.
World Killer Asteroids

> *Incoming Asteroid!*
>
>

> *An enormous asteroid has been detected on a collision course with [world]! Experts are advising that we take immediate action, or else the impact could devastate our entire world!*
>
>

## Introduction

Worldkiller Asteroids are a feature that is only available on Expert Mode and on Cretacea on any difficulty. The player receives a notification hours before a worldkiller will hit their world. The Planetary Defense Network allows defense against worldkiller asteroids.

#### *Asteroid Impact*

*An asteroid has impacted the surface of [world], spreading devastation across the entire surface of the world! [number] outposts and cities were destroyed and [number] facilities were lost, and our research databases have been devastated. Between the impact and the aftermath, a total of [number] people were killed.*

The asteroid destroys a large number of cities outright. In the cities that were not destroyed, a large number of people are still killed. On top of that, it can wipe out at least ⅓ of the researched project. The asteroid also massively increases atmospheric pressure (about 200,000 Pa). This will make the world uninhabitable until pressure levels have been corrected

## Strategy

Upgrading the buildings to make them sturdier before the asteroid hits will not help; it might work when dealing with quakes, but this strategy is completely useless when dealing with asteroids. The better off saving money. The asteroid destroys entire cities, so the level of facilities are at is completely irrelevant.

Make sure to have habitations enabled in each of the cities, because the world will be uninhabitable after the asteroid hits, and you don't want that to mean that even the cities that weren't completely wiped off the surface of the world become abandoned!

If you have more time, the best way to deal with them is to select change its course, cutting-edge equipment, either rigorous training with refitted vehicles, and 1 team. It will take about 11h and 15 minutes and costs only 25 million credits.

If you have less time before impact, you could instead choose change its course, standard training, cutting-edge equipment, refitted vehicles, and 2 teams. It will take 9 hours and cost 50 million credits.

If the impact time goes below 9 hours, it will become very expensive or impossible to reach a 100% success chance.

## Cost

Based off the base selection being Break It into Small Pieces, Standard Training, Standard Equipment, Refitted Vehicle, and 1 Team.

Success is 25%, Time is 3 hours, and cost is 10,000,000c. The success rate, time and cost are all multiplicative and rounded off to the nearest integer.

Example: Choosing break it, rigorous, cutting-edge, custom, and 3 teams. Results in a success rate of 68%. (25%\*1.25\*1.25\*1.25\*1.4)
TerraGenesis Store

In the TerraGenesis Store you can buy Worlds, GP, Credits and Governors. You can also get a lot of stuff for free.

## Worlds

Free playable worlds (Mars, Mercury, and Moon ) can be unlocked for free; the rest has to be purchased.

There are three ways you can go about this. You can Purchase individual planets for $0.99 per planet, sets of planets for varying prices, or an all-access pass for $20.99. The all-access pass does not expire and includes all worlds that will be released in future updates (except for flat planet mode).

## Governors

You can buy a silver card pack, 20 Governor cards for 75 GP, a gold card pack, 200 Governor cards for 650 GP. You can also buy a single Governor card for the Governor that's on promotion that day for 5 GP, and lastly, you can buy a whole lot of Governor cards for one single Governor that's on promotion that day for real money.

The gold card pack is the best deal, so try to save up for that.

If you buy a card for the featured governor of the day for 5GP, the price for the next card for that governor then goes up by 1, to 6 GP, and the next card is 7GP etcetera. This is a very expensive way of buying governors, so dont recommend it.

## Rewards

On the rewards tab you can get Free GP by following TerraGenesis on various social media platforms. You don't actually have to follow them. If you click the 'FREE' button to go the websites/apps, the game just assumes you've actually followed TerraGenesis on that platform and gives you the 10 free GP.

## Featured

On the Featured tab, you can earn GP by filling in questionnaires and playing other games. For these rewards to be given, you do actually have to do what the game asks you to do. The GP rewards are therefore also substantially larger.

Be aware that if you do choose to fill in questionnaires, you are giving your information to third party companies, and they can then sell your information to other companies.

## GP and Credits

You can purchase Genesis Points for real money, which can be converted into Credits in another tab in the store.

## Dialogue

 Every time we talk, you make me agree with everything you're saying while simulatneouslymaking me want to pull out all my hair.But the moment I walk away, my beliefs settle back in as if they had never left.Same.So... how do we move forward?Because, Neil, if you and I can't come to an agreement...If we, who have had so much respect for each other, who were friends, who started with many of the same ideals, can't agree......how does anyone else?Like I said, sometimes one side picks for us. Soon, X will pick for us.Of all people -- it's almost laughable.What, why?You should have heard the name X tried to get me to use for them. It was pretty funny. Ridiculous, but actually pretty funny...I forgot how you always manage to find a silver lining. It's good.Thanks...You know, after X picks, there will be fallout, eventually, everyone will fall in line with the outcome. I don't see an alternative.A fallout? For accusing me of being destructive, that sounds like you're advocating... something violent. Like a downfall or a war.I'm not advocating that, A. I'm really not. It's not what I want, I just don't know that it's avoidable.Then it seems like we need to start looking for a new home, no?
 I know where I stand. I'm impressed that you two are so level-headed.

Spaceport

"*Small towns and outposts can make do for a while with simple landing pads and runways, but if a city expects to continue growing, it will eventually need a proper spaceport. This will allow not only the flow of visitors and new colonists, but will also stimulate the local economy and increase the city's overall revenue.*"

## Introduction

The **spaceport** provides an enormous boost to the population of the city it is in. This facility also generates the highest amount of credits out of any city building, and a little bit of pressure due to rocket exhaust fumes. This facility is needed for the construction of Satellites.

Make sure to have at least one city with a spaceport sitting at within or less than 3 degrees from the equator so it can serve as the socket city for a Space Elevator. You can see how far from the equator a city is when you place it.

Levels beyond **V** are only reached through events. Always accept the offer. However, If a level X Spaceport is neither on a natural satellite nor sufficiently downgraded using the slider, the extreme increase in population growth and the 55 pressure increase per minute will eventually devastate the biomass (on Normal/Expert biomass games) and pressure. You will need the Sky Farm satellite so humans don't eat biomass and to balance out the pressure.

## Level Charts

Beginner Mode differs in time needed compared to Normal Mode. Your world's Culture has an effect on this facility's stats regarding *Biomass production,* *Credit cost*, *Research Time* and *Construction Time*.
Triton

## Paradise Habitability

> *Discovered in 1846 but not named for decades later, Triton draws its name from the son of Poseidon (Neptune to the Romans), the god of sea in Greek mythology.*
>
>

> *Consisting mainly of water ice and frozen nitrogen with a rocky core, Triton accounts for 99.5% of the mass of all of Neptune’s 14 moons. It is also one of the few moons in the Solar System known to be geologically active, meaning its surface is relatively young, and a complex geological history revealed in intricate cryovolcanic and tectonic terrains.*
>
>

## About

**Triton** is the only world in the game’s Moons of Neptune bundle. **Triton** is also the largest moon of Neptune. **All of Neptune's other moons are much much smaller (Nereid being 170 km in radius, and Proteus, 211 km in radius).**

## Strategy

Establishing two or more cities and waiting for the trading route event to pop up is a good way to earn a lot of space credits quickly. Be sure to have more than one hab unit in each city, since having an event wipe out an entire city takes away all cultural revenue.

Be sure to decrease water levels before increasing the world's pressure or temperature in order to avoid flooding. Or, if you don't want to wait so long, slowly add heat and pressure by building a borehole. It also requires a lot of ice launchers, so you should do everything above before worrying about oxygen.

## Trivia

* Triton is the son of Neptune in Roman mythology.
* Triton was discovered on October 10, 1846, by English astronomer William Lassell.
* Triton has tholins, like Pluto. It is also a little larger than Pluto but smaller than Earth's Moon.
* Triton is a captured moon of Neptune, as it has a retrograde orbit. It has some cryovolcanoes.
* Triton has a thin atmosphere composed of nitrogen, methane and carbon monoxide.
