That Main Street market is basically a trench that had been excavated for some earlier purpose and then as the colony grew and some of the underground tunnels crossed it, they sealed and put a canopy over it.

Well, there is number of DS9 people on FAM.
HV is like many cities, starts out as small colony, and then outgrows its original infrastructure. Labor & resource scarcity is an issue so there’s patch fix upon patch fix till it’s a winding rambling sprawl.

Part of the trick is figuring out what it needs to do & in what environment. Assume they’re taking every opportunity to save on weight & fuel. It’s better if a machine does less things. The more complex the more points of failure. What pushes it? What powers it? How does it shed heat in a Vacuum?
We have an astronaut advisor who we consult with & researchers in the dept. It’s a complicated process though.
We hadn’t quite figured out the pressurized transport that docks & takes people to the base at that point, but figured it was probably camper van sized & that the Hopper craft landing gear needed to clear it to airlock to the top.

Were we not adequately warned about Rings of Power?
Well… SC films in eastern Eu & FAM5 completed filming a while ago…
Hopefully, there will be trailers and a release date soon.

Looking at history, I fear that could be decades, or centuries from now…
Something about watching them is like a slap in the face, that society at large seems to have broken all the morals and promises that we aspired to, that the shows represented…
Yeah, I feel that.
Eh it’s long dead, would have been a B movie, probably not good. But I did get to investigate and learn about a lot of deep sea life. It had a bio luminescent based language.
I worked on a deep sea sci-fi horror film, that never got made, but the idea was intelligent life based on deep sea vent life.
So much interesting potential...
I agree that it’s the ideal direction. It’s the how and the what of it in terms of storytelling, that will captivate a wide audience…
Or one might equate it to the Shire. Characters have to leave The Shire for the adventure, but it persists as the quant notion of home that’s under threat.
Something about that seems very 20th century, though…
Solarpunk is a tricky one, because when it’s often depicted in sci-fi, it’s usually as the too-good-to-be-true utopias or would-be 3rd party victims of some antagonistic force.
Earth in Trek seems very solarpunk adjacent, but they’re also rarely there in the show, because the drama is elsewhere.
