Cambermann Memorial Space Elevator


Cambermann Memorial Space Elevator
Antisana Province
January 26th, 2438


Background: Named after Admiral Theodore Cambermann, who commanded the expedition that colonised New Agacia, the Cambermann Memorial Space Elevator is used to ferry large supplies of raw materials into space for use in the orbital shipyards. Surrounding the elevator is one of New Agacia's manufacturing facilities, comprising of numerous factories and raw material processing plants.

This area also marks the landing site of the "Intrepid", the first colonisation ship to touch down on the surface of New Agacia. A plaque commemorating this can be seen in the foreground.

  1. Hi Andrew

    I think this series is really coming together well! I know you were having doubts last week, but seeing them know there is a conceptual and formal integrity about them that is working brilliantly. I especially enjoy the text or long caption and I suggest you do a mock up of how that might be installed next to the images - it should look very much part of the work rather than an afterthought. It might pay to drop in at the National Museum and have a look at their educational wall texts or other samples of how they put information next to the images.... (or the NGA or another gallery). Have you thought also of a small brochure with image and text? that could work in addition to the work on the walls. ANyway, it is looking great - Silvia

  2. I meant to say "seeing them now" not "seeing them know" - apologies!
