"Openvirgle is an effort by an increasing number of people to create ideas and ways in which humankind can live sustainably in space, using free and open-source technology. This project is a place for all space enthusiasts to cooperate on simulations of space settlements. Rather than argue whether L5 or Mars or the asteroids or Luna (Earth's moon) or the rings of Saturn shoud be humankind's first space-settlement, we coud be asking what is common between those efforts, so that that groundwork can be shared."
