An
obvious
solution
to
the
real
estate
shortage
?
Right
as
far
as
that
goes
,
but
I
think
you
’
re
forgetting
something
.
"
I
flicked
my
eyes
skywards
.
"
We
Are
Not
Alone
.
"
It
clicked
.
"
The
orbitals
?
They
’
re
hostile
?
"
"
Mmm
.
Let
’
s
say
capricious
.
They
tend
to
shoot
down
anything
airborne
that
masses
more
than
a
helicopter
.
And
since
no
one
’
s
ever
been
able
to
get
close
enough
to
decommission
one
of
them
,
or
even
get
aboard
,
come
to
that
,
we
have
no
way
of
knowing
what
their
exact
programming
parameters
are
.
So
we
just
play
it
safe
,
and
don
’
t
go
up
in
the
air
much
.
"
"
Must
make
IP
traffic
tough
.
"
I
nodded
.
"
Well
,
yeah
.
‘
Course
,
there
isn
’
t
much
traffic
anyway
.
No
other
habitable
planets
in
the
system
,
and
we
’
re
still
too
busy
exploiting
the
World
to
bother
about
terraforming
.
Few
exploration
probes
,
and
maintenance
shuttles
to
the
Platforms
.
Bit
of
exotic
element
mining
,
that
’
s
about
it
.
And
there
are
a
couple
of
launch
windows
down
around
the
equator
towards
evening
and
one
crack
of
dawn
slot
up
on
the
pole
.
It
looks
like
a
couple
of
orbitals
must
have
crashed
and
burned
,
way
back
when
,
left
holes
in
the
net
.
"
I
paused
.
"
Or
maybe
someone
shot
them
down
.
"
"
Someone
?
You
mean
someone
,
not
the
Martians
?
"
I
spread
my
hands
.
"
Why
not
?
Everything
they
’
ve
ever
found
on
Mars
was
razed
or
buried
.
Or
so
well
disguised
we
spent
decades
looking
right
at
it
before
we
even
realised
it
was
there
.
It
’
s
the
same
on
most
of
the
Settled
worlds
.
All
the
evidence
points
to
some
kind
of
conflict
out
there
.
"
"
But
the
archaeologues
say
it
was
a
civil
war
,
a
colonial
war
.
"
"
Yeah
,
right
.
"
I
folded
my
arms
and
sat
back
.
"
The
archaeologues
say
what
the
Protectorate
tells
them
to
say
,
and
right
now
it
’
s
fashionable
to
deplore
the
tragedy
of
the
Martian
domain
tearing
itself
apart
and
sinking
via
barbarism
into
extinction
.
Big
warning
for
the
inheritors
.
Don
’
t
rebel
against
your
lawful
rulers
,
for
the
good
of
all
civilisation
.
