With angry citizens breathing down their necks no spare planet in sight the governments of the Earth met up in Stockholm for a discussion. They decided to control their carbon print, invest in clean energy and to stop mining harmful materials for at least 150 years. This became known as the Stockholm convention of 2145.

By the end of 2148, it was obvious that the solution was not feasible despite stricter measures. The supplies were dwindling and Earth still needed those resources. The governments met again in Washington the same year and decided to do outsource mining to a different planet – Kepler 452b.

While the planet was not habitable, it was abundant with ore, oil, natural gas and other minerals.

In 2152 they sent a team of scientists with a squadron of robots on a mining mission. It was a success. So much that they decided to move the production there

Now, 50 years later, there are fabrics and a whole fleet of ships on Kepler.

Your squadron is in charge of mining the most important assets – oil, natural gas, platinum, lithium and plutonium.
