==The ''A Miracle of Science'' Cluster Maps.==

'''Map 01: The Extended Cluster.'''

This first approach is an attempt to figure out what civilian transport lines might look like, as opposed to the free-roaming experienced by the characters.  This approach would lead to a third Aspect more heavily based in where the planet is in the network, which might be useful.

'''Map 02: The Open-Network Cluster.'''

The above map is the approach it was decided to go with, and the suggestion is that we could use the Zone rules for more-rapid movement between cluster-nodes.  Discussion of this point begins here.[http://forum.rpg.net/showpost.php?p=11152552&postcount=49]

This second approach has a vast number of connections from place to place, meaning that the effective distance from one place to another is truncated. (And some links I couldn't figure out how to make look reasonable - for example Titan should connect to both Io and Mars.)  In some ways, this better fits what is presented in the comic, and yet makes the concept of an interconnected network of systems less distinctive (or appropriate) in this case.

It was decided that the below map comparatively lacked flavour to the first option, particularly when the Zone rule discussion began.  I've kept it here as an alternative if people want to go in a different direction.  One thing to remember is that using this map, the third Aspect listed in the writeup (barring Mars) would likely change.
