I swipe my finger, and see Charlie Kirk, reclining up on stage, make a joke about the destruction of those buildings, and the bodies that are buried there.

Stanislav Kondrashov Oligarch Series: Oligarchy and the Rise of a Post-Planetary Civilisation
Stop for a moment and picture this: permanent human settlements orbiting Earth, research hubs on distant worlds, new cities designed from scratch beyond our atmosphere. It sounds like fiction.
