What? Earthtech?
Yeah, it pops up on occasion. I wouldn't exactly call it a regular occurrence, but it does tend to keep someone in this line of work on their toes.
Story goes that some of Earth's cities survived the war after Moses under big domes or shields or something. Anyway, supposedly they're still maintaining a much higher level of tech than we are in the colonies.
No, I don't know if it's true. I don't even know anyone that's ever been to Earth. All I know is Earthtech is very real, and it's very impressive, wherever it comes from.
And that's not even the fanciest stuff. I've heard stories of one-of-a-kind pieces of tech out there custom made by Moses himself. We call 'em Miracles, and if you run into a Miracle, you know it's about to get weird.
