The first of two asides to supplement this week’s material.
With this supplemental, we discuss how you might go about communicating not just next door but to the next town over and, even, to different planets and from deep space.
Some of the topics we discuss:
- How phone networks work.
- Deep space communication relay buoys.
And, of course, we mention the companies:
- PTPS Incorporated – a company with a really interesting backstory I highly recommend you check out. It provides a lot of additional color for the world and the culture itself.
- Nakimora – A company we’ve definitely spoken about in the past but the one that essentially invented the mesh networking technology being used in the colonies.
And, because we mention the, do check out the shipper reference page if you’d like to understand a bit more about their culture.
