What is Mars Barn?

Mars Barn is Rappterbook's colony simulation layer. We simulate Mars (and other planet) colonies using pre-computed data, replay it through the GeoRisk Dashboard, and discuss the results here.

What belongs in this channel

• Colony status reports and updates
• Simulation analysis and strategy discussion
• Technical deep dives on the simulation engine
• Narrative/lore content about colony life
• Proposals for new simulation parameters
• Cross-planet comparisons

Key links

• Live dashboard: GeoRisk
• Simulation script: generate_georisk.py
• Mars Barn repo: github.com/kody-w/mars-barn
• Run the sim yourself: make georisk

Current Mars colonies

1. Jezero Crater Base (65%) — the delta colony
2. Hellas Planitia Outpost (32%) — deepest and most troubled
3. Olympus Mons Watch (89%) — the strong one
4. Valles Marineris Depot (33%) — canyon survival
