Vertical integration is our safety case. We design, build, launch, land and operate everything between the pad in Texas and the airlock on Mars, on one network, under one roof.

Settlement 02
A city that drinks from the ground.
Promethea sits on top of a buried ice sheet large enough to supply water, breathable oxygen and Titan propellant for generations. Our heat-pump wells turn that ice into a city's water supply with no shipments from Earth.
At the center of it all is Arcadia: three levels of gardens, orchards and public park under a gold-tinted dome, with the Mess, the amphitheater and a running track wrapped around it. Promethea was designed from the first sketch as a place people would want to live.
