Cytus:
The interconnected internet platforms have become more substantial than any country or corporation. Humans have redefined the “net” and how we interact with it.
As technology develops, the virtual world is now capable of replacing the real one. Using a device installed behind the ear, humans can now easily sync to the virtual world.
Thus, life is now completely different than the past centuries. The center of this change is the virtual internet space –- cyTus, the world’s largest virtual city.
In the real world, it is a giant server located in the stratosphere and powered by solar energy. In the virtual world, it’s a place where 70% of the Earth’s population is living their second life.
For All Mankind:
In the television series "For All Mankind", the Three Mile Island incident, a real-life nuclear accident in 1979, is averted due to advancements in nuclear technology, specifically from NASA. This alteration leads to a changed timeline where public concerns about nuclear power are significantly lower.
Elaboration:
In the real world, the 1979 Three Mile Island accident resulted in a partial meltdown of the reactor, sparking widespread public fears and a moratorium on new nuclear power plant construction. In the "For All Mankind" universe, however, NASA's technological breakthroughs prevent this event from occurring.
This change in the timeline has several consequences:
Reduced public fear of nuclear power:
Without the accident, public anxieties about nuclear safety are significantly lower, leading to less opposition to the development and deployment of nuclear power.
Continued reliance on nuclear energy:
The absence of the Three Mile Island incident means that the nuclear industry continues to thrive, with a strong focus on innovation and advancements.
