ONE CONTINUOUS SCIENCE-FICTION UNIVERSE

DIASPORA

Explore the AXIOM archives. Learn the real science behind it.

Diaspora is one universe, explored three ways: through its archives, the science behind it, and fiction set within it. AXIOM contains the canonical in-universe record, while Nabu provides cited real-world context and identifies the boundary between science and fiction.

WHERE TO START

Start with archives, science, or story.

The Archive tells you what exists in Diaspora. Real Science tells you what is grounded in research and where the fiction takes over. Stories show you what it is like to live there. Together, they build a fuller view of the same universe.
