Environmental Specializations

Skills and adaptations for survival and maneuvering across the four most common environments of the Solar System. These are used both for training and as categories of genetic or mechanical modification.

Microgravity Environments of near-weightlessness, such as spacecraft in freefall. Focuses on orientation, translation, tool use, and stability. Days of exposure causes Degrav.
Low Gravity Environments between 0.15 g and 0.35 g, including many moons and small planets. Emphasizes balance, momentum control, and assisted locomotion. Distinct from Microgravity. Weeks of exposure risks Degrav.
Earth Standard Gravity Environments between 0.8 g and 1.2 g, considered healthy for long-term residence. Covers most Artificial Gravity habitats and the surface of Earth and Venus. Focus is endurance, load-bearing, and efficient movement.
Aquatic Submersion in water or other liquids. Includes maneuvering by swimming or with specialized equipment. Environments range from shallow lakes on habitats to high-pressure oceans.
