-Redemption Reform Facility is a stop on the supply ship run between several systems with [[culture#​habitations|mining outposts]] and other terraforming stations. Due to the travel time, inmates are those who have been handed longer sentences((There have been speculations in bolder publications that the judiciary are aware of the need for extended custodial sentences to supply the frontier workforce)). The sentences are necessarily in denominations of years. The journey from civilisation consists of at least 3 years on the supply ships. There is no resident means of interplanetary transport on b-Exagora. Those wishing to terminate their employment and those who have served their sentence must wait until the next supply ship to leave.+Redemption Reform Facility is a stop on the supply ship run between several systems with [[culture#​habitations|mining outposts]] and other terraforming stations.

 Although Redemption Reform Facility was built to house 1500 inmates plus 300 guards, the current prison population runs closer to 3000. The expansion of habitable planet surface has led to further accommodation,​ but due to upkeep costs of the scientific stations, other prison services have not been improved proportionately. Lack of funding for new accommodation blocks has resulted in overcrowding. For the guards---whose numbers have not increased---the reduced enforcer:​prisoner ratio is a continual source of stress, which has caused some guards to show greater authoritarian tendencies. Although Redemption Reform Facility was built to house 1500 inmates plus 300 guards, the current prison population runs closer to 3000.

-The prison complex follows a basic layout. There are the main cell blocks, Alpha, Bravo and Charlie; the basic facilities (see [[the_prison#​prison_facilities|below]]) and auxiliary infrastructure buildings such as the water filtration systems and the lifter and buzzer landing pads (see [[the_prison#​transport_on_b-exagora|below]]). ​The support station with the root of the space elevator---the space elevator last seen de-orbiting and falling out of the sky{{   wiki:prison_cell_3.jpg?​300|picture by Gregoire Cachemaille }}---lies half a mile outside.+The prison complex follows a basic layout.

 Inmates have freedom of movement around the main prison, although the warehouses and depots require the correct ​ clearance level on your keycard. Inmates are assigned cooking and cleaning duties: there are no paid staff members to manage domestic affairs. However, the prison meets all basic requirements for healthy living. The food, preserved and bland as it is, provides all essential nutrients and appropriate sustenance. The water is safely potable, the heating adequate, and no diseases of poor hygiene or water safety are present on b-Exagora. Colonists are screened for communicable disease before entry. Inmates have freedom of movement around the main prison, although the warehouses and depots require the correct ​ clearance level on your keycard.

 As part of the terraforming work, prisoners are often needed in locations remote from the prison itself. ​ As such, the prison has a fleet of vehicles to move them around the planet. ​ All vehicles are electric, and may be charged either from the prison power supply or by integrated solar panels.\\ As part of the terraforming work, prisoners are often needed in locations remote from the prison itself. ​ As such, the prison has a fleet of vehicles to move them around the planet. ​ All vehicles are electric, and may be charged either from the prison power supply or by integrated solar panels.\\

 **Crawlers** are large, all-terrain transports, rated to hold 25 people and a buggy, but capable of holding more people if no-one cares about their comfort. ​ They are capable of driving for up to two days on a full charge, but the solar panels would take almost a week of constant sunlight to fully charge them.\\ **Crawlers** are large, all-terrain transports, rated to hold 25 people and a buggy, but capable of holding more people if no-one cares about their comfort. ​ They are capable of driving for up to two days on a full charge, but the solar panels would take almost a week of constant sunlight to fully charge them.\\
 **Buggies** are small, fast, two-person vehicles, generally used by guards to patrol around large remote sites. ​ They can drive for 5 hours on a full charge without further topping up, or indefinitely during daylight hours (with slightly reduced performance if the battery is depleted).\\ **Buggies** are small, fast, two-person vehicles, generally used by guards to patrol around large remote sites. ​ They can drive for 5 hours on a full charge without further topping up, or indefinitely during daylight hours (with slightly reduced performance if the battery is depleted).\\
