Driven by his compulsion to understand the world, he’s completely neglected his social life in favor of his studies. He’s currently a part of a planetary colonization project, on a planet referred to as Rostam.

Setting: It is the year 2318, and humanity has begun to spread across the stars. Due to the difficulty of terraforming planets to make them habitable, large colonies mostly only exist on planets with breathable atmospheres, or ones with large amounts of resources. Genetically modifying humans has become strictly regulated and restricted, though mutated genes, cosmetic and utility, are incredibly common among the human population. Intelligent life other than humans has not yet been discovered. Generally, large spacecrafts (country-sized and above) are self-governed, as are large enough fleets of smaller ships, and most space stations are as well. The planet Rostam is divided into two layers: upper, and lower. The upper layer has a thin atmosphere, direct sunlight, and large oceans. The lower layer has an oxygen rich atmosphere, much more biodiversity in animals and plants, fresh and saltwater seas, and is very humid. The upper layer is suspended on multiple incredibly thick rock pillars, and is at most a mile above the lower level. The lower level gets partial sun at most, depending on the gaps in the upper layer’s plates. Upper level plants are usually reliant on photosynthesis, and look more like earth plants. Lower level plants are strange and alien looking, and rely on alternate sources of energy. Lower level animals are generally larger and more aggressive than those on the upper level. The main colony on Rostam is named Taxma, and is on the upper layer, near the ocean.
