Interplanetary Construction Techniques Bby *Ninja-Sonic-Xenogeny

Traditional Art / Mixed Media / Science Fiction

[FULL NANO FABRICATION]
{Arc Fleet contains Nano constructor vessels which deploy containers full of nanite constructors. Released onto barren ground they mine the earth they are set upon and slowly grow a building into place as coordinated by their parent nano constructor vessel. Once construction is built, NanoVessels deactivate Nanites and populace is sent down via transport ships.}
+ Very Easy to implement given the technology
+ Relatively simple Construction inventory required
- Can take a long time to construct a building.
- Grey Goo Hazard

[PARTIAL / PHASED / HYBRID NANO FABRICATION CONSTRUCTION]
{Similar to above, however, Arc features populated and unpopulated 'building cores' that aid and speed up the nano fabrication process as partial constructs, prefabs, and scaffolding.}
+ Faster than pure Nano Fabrication
+ Allows habitation of partially constructed buildings, ingress and egress during nanoconstruction may be an issue, - Potentially Costly
- Grey Goo Hazard
- Slightly more dangerous if buildings populated during construction though can be controlled provided nanite areas and target materials of operation are 'zoned' correctly.
- requires higher sophistication of nanobots than previous technique.
