Galactography
- Currently defined as all space within a 12,000 light year radius of Earth. Exactly 80% of its systems are considered colonized.
- Currently defined as all space more than 12,000 light years but less than 24,000 light years away from Earth. Just a few million of its systems are colonized.
- Currently defined as all space more than 24,000 light years away from Earth. Very few of its systems are colonized.
What counts as colonized?
- A system is colonized if it has over 1,000,000 inhabitants by the official modern definition, while it is developed if it has sufficient infrastructure, and simply explored if it has been visited by sapient solspawn.
Timekeeping
Present Day
- Present day is the year 6800 CE, this being in the same calendar system we use in real life.
Calendar
- In-universe, the Gregorian Calendar has been kept as a unified timekeeping system for simplicity. However, most planets have their own local timekeeping systems and calendars that align more to their orbit and rotation, and a mix of both are used.
Vocabulary
- Member of a solspawn subculture that physically alters themselves extremely frequently.
- Matter that contains sporadic nanites connected to one another and to the matter itself by weak energy streams. They are able to alter matter on the zeptoscale by sending near infinitesimal signals through the streams.
Latticed Package
- Package composed of latticed matter that can be expanded when needed, used to compress larger items into a small space, and automatically produced by assemblers if an object is too large.
Periphery
- Border of Colonized Space and the Midregions.
- Large machine that when stepped inside of can transform its user into virtually any form desirable within seconds.
