Closed Nutrient Loops
Urea/ureate recovery, composting, trace‑mineral ISRU.
SANITY(strings=44, ropes=4, sheets=4, broken_links=0, missing_svg=0, js_used=0)
This v9 build adds the visuals you accepted: **Sankey per phase**, **Thermal loops**, **Gantt by synod**, **Biomechanics pack**, **Terraforming gauges**, **Governance map**, **Culture/Religion atlas**, and **Economics fan chart** — all inline SVG, JS‑free, offline and print‑vector.
Working heuristic: treat continuous power per person (kW/person) as a phase gate. Resilience band: 40-60 kW/person. Fragility: <20 kW/person. Rule: hit ~40 kW/person (sustained) before ramping population or launch cadence.
Design lens only; validate with mission-specific load models.
**Food fraction** rises 0→30→80→100%; algae/leafy staples first; protein & specialty crops later.
Urea/ureate recovery, composting, trace‑mineral ISRU.
Protein/carb baseline, oxygen buffer, water polishing.
Excavate and berm habitats for thermal and radiation control.
Buried cables, heat loops, and depot storage nodes.
Harden equipment, parking orientations, cache routes.
High‑rate Earth–Mars optical; delay‑tolerant nets.
Local models for maintenance, triage, and planning.
Unified catalog for samples, imagery, telemetry.
Public art, rituals, and shared story for cohesion.
High‑mass landings with precise hazard avoidance.
Data, IP, PGM metals, isotopes, art & media.
LOX/CH₄ depots at LEO & Mars orbit; tanker cadence.
Palletized cargo interfaces; power/data/thermal common.
**Charter → Council → Republic**: mature from mission command to self-rule; direct democracy pilots and a Mars Accord with Earth.
10 kW per person, 10 t per person per synod, first 10 years.
A minimal, rights-based charter enabling science, safety, and enterprise.
Three independent pressure boundaries: suit, shelter, base.
Buried inflatable modules connected by rigid tunnels.
Orthopedic/surgical kits; telemedicine + autonomy.
Artificial‑G cycles, resistive exercise, pharma as needed.
Water/PE shielding with storm‑shelter targeting SPEs.
Sintered regolith bricks/tiles as radiation shields and roads.
CH₄/O₂ from CO₂ and H₂O at 1–10 t/synod.
Hot‑point drills + ovens to extract 20–200 kg/h water.
Print tools, spares, ducts; close logistics gaps.
Carbothermal reduction; sintering; glass panels.
O₂ for breathing/propellant; ice bricks for shielding.
>90% water/O₂ recycling; CO₂ scrubbing and buffering.
**kW→MW→GW**: hybrid solar+fission, storm-hard; later fusion & beamed solar as city scales.
Curtail loads, deploy wipers, shift to fission and storage.
Dust‑robust solar fields plus 1–10 MWe micro‑fission core.
Grader, hauler, dozer, and cable‑bot swarms.
Robots pre‑build pads, berms, caches, and power fields.
Rovers → drones → lab modules with chain‑of‑custody.
Layered keep‑out zones around special regions.
Every EVA within 10 min of safe‑room; caches per 1 km.
**Hydrology→Terra pilots**: brines mapping; greenhouse-gas factories; microclimates under domes.
Sleep, cognition, social; art as countermeasure.
Map ice lenses, brines, and seasonal flows.
Sterile zones; forward/back contamination rules.
High ice probability, smooth terrain, mid‑latitudes.
Glacial deposits near mesas; good line‑of‑sight.
Low‑temp hydraulics, dust‑hard seals, cable bots.
Cargo hops to rough terrain; sample return assist.
100–300 km sorties; docking with base airlocks.
Mass‑efficient Mars EDL combining aeroshell and engines.
Tanker‑refilled stages deliver 50–100 t cargo per synod.
