Remote Mining (Patreon)

On uninhabitable planets, the Odraani uses remote controlled mining to keep their workers out of harms way.

The mining habitat is pressurised, equipped with a wide range of facilities for worker comfort where almost every operation can be done remotely. The running costs are high due to the advanced technologies necessary, but the safety records are phenomenal.

Some specialists are needed to set up the local infrastructure or make on-site emergency repairs, but the majority of the crew never needs leave the habitat

Because of the isolation, mining crews are on six month shifts, and ample free time and communication in forms of recorded video messages with relatives is given

Sorry for the absence of posts lately; been ill this whole week and I've been struggling with lack of motivation and low mood.
