This is New Albion on Mars
00:36
Our spaceport is very busy with vehicles
launching and landing at all hours.
00:43
Rockets launch and land several kilometres from
the inhabited parts of New Albion.
00:50
You may be aware of a rocket launch taking place as
the powerful vibrations caused by launch
00:55
travel well through the surface material
in which New Albion is constructed.
01:02
The much lower energies of landing rockets means
that residents are rarely aware of arrivals.
01:10
Departures from and arrivals at
the spaceport are well publicised.
01:16
High definition video of launches, landings,
and rocket and satellite activities are
01:21
routinely streamed on New Albion's networks.
01:26
The shows often start early with presenters
01:29
calling attention to new technologies,
mission specialities, or notable crew.
