Description

In 2219, Mars has been humanity's extraterrestrial hub for a century. Here, various institutions, including the Asteroid Mining Assembly of Corporations, regulate asteroid mining operations. Amidst the chaos of the asteroid belt, the dwarf planet Ceres has become the epicenter of the asteroid mining industry.

Step into the expanse of Ceres, a frigid, distand asteroid colony where your role as a space mining corporation head encompasses both resource extradition from the asteroid belt and trade with arriving cargo spaceships. As you strive for supremacy, the thriving settlement and influential Mars Council demand your strategic insight. Your mark on the colony's evolution and your standing in the Council will cement your place among Ceres' respected leaders, providing that power extends beyond the resource domination.

Your goal is to establish the most prosperous corporation on Ceres within three years.
