New Babbage is a city on microTech in the Stanton system. The city is built from several interconnected domes and buildings due to the permanent icy outside temperatures, which are the result of the unsuccessful terraforming attempt. As of Alpha 3.14.0 the high speed public transport system connects three stations and a fourth during conventions.
| “ | A terraforming error left the planet with an unnaturally dense cloud cover and a colder than average climate making it an ideal location for owner microTech to house its heat-sensitive computing and manufacturing centers. | ” |
