Line 30:
** Softness: ships powered by [[Applied Phlebotinum]] fusion reactors, almost everything about the protomolecule.
* [[Potty Failure]] - Julie Mao in the prologue.
* [[Self -Destruct Mechanism]] - Used by the ''Donnager'' after it is borded.
* [[The Sociopath]] - Dresden. And he had all his employees clinically altered to be sociopaths, too.
* [[Terraform]] - A project to terraform Mars is ongoing, but it is currently still reliant on imports from Earth.
Line 36:
* [[The Virus]] - The protomolecule
* [[The War of Earthly Aggression]] - This is one of the things that the Belters are worried about, although they're more immediately worried about a War Of Martian Aggression. Mars itself has also prepared for war with Earth, both in terms of military buildup and running elaborate battle simulations.
* [[What Measure Is a Non -Human?]] - In universe example - "real" Belters who grew up under low gravity are tall and skinny and look slightly deformed to people who grew up on Earth or Mars (apparently Mars' 1/3rd g is enough to avoid this effect?) They also have their own dialect that can make it difficult for "Inners" to understand what they're saying even when theoretically speaking the same language. It is speculated that many Inners don't even view Belters as real humans anymore and that is part of the reason why conflict has developed between them.
