Thousands of [[tourist]]s are present in [[Kahra]] for the [[Universal State Fair]], held on [[Mars]] for the first time. Towering three hundred [[Foot (unit)|feet]] above the exhibition halls is a monument called [[the Tricept]], which symbolises the fair, commemerating [[man]]'s achievements in [[Colony|colonising]] the [[planet]]s and standing as a [[beacon]] calling visitors to the event. On the 150 stands at the fair, exhibits represent [[Universe|universal]] achievements throughout the [[past]] and for the [[future]], dealing with every aspect of the planets' [[life]] from [[industry]] to [[agriculture]]. | Thousands of [[tourist]]s are present in [[Kahra]] for the [[Universal State Fair]], held on [[Mars]] for the first time.

* Locations in [[Kahra]] at the State Fair include [[Grand Avenue]], [[Pagoda Hall]] (housing [[Agriculture|agricultural]] achievements of the [[century]]), [[Central Avenue]], the [[Hall of Progress]] (an exhibition of [[space]] progress), [[Transport House]] (displaying [[transport]] through the ages), a [[mono-rail]] serving the exhibition, and [[the Tricept]]. | * Locations in [[Kahra]] at the State Fair include [[Grand Avenue]], [[Pagoda Hall]] (housing [[Agriculture|agricultural]] achievements of the [[century]]), [[Central Avenue]], the [[Hall of Progress]] (an exhibition of [[space]] progress), [[Transport House]] (displaying [[transport]] through the ages), a [[mono-rail]] serving the exhibition, and [[the Tricept]]. | ||
* [[Earth]]'s contribution to the fair is the [[Leute 2]]'' [[World Weather Control|Weather Control]] satellite, which is shortly to replace ''[[Leute 1]]''. It has been completely redeveloped from the current design with the main feature being a huge magnifying [[retro-glass]] which stores [[energy]] from [[Sol|the Sun]] and converts it by means of [[patheloty condensor]]s into the required types of [[weather]]. It travels on a fixed [[orbit]] around the Earth. | * [[Earth]]'s contribution to the fair is the [[Leute 2]]'' [[World Weather Control|Weather Control]] satellite, which is shortly to replace ''[[Leute 1]]''.

* [[Venus]]' exhibit is the [[Sysmos Jetmobile]] which won the [[Universal 48 hour TT Grand Prix]] in [[2066]] which gained the title of [[Universal Racing Driver]] for its rider [[Tebor Vachet]]. It was built by the [[Pondo Jetmobile Corporation]] and is capable of travelling at over nine hundred [[miles per hour]]. | * [[Venus]]' exhibit is the [[Sysmos Jetmobile]] which won the [[Universal 48 hour TT Grand Prix]] in [[2066]] which gained the title of [[Universal Racing Driver]] for its rider [[Tebor Vachet]].

* The highlight of the State Fair is the [[Bubble House]] from [[Astra]], the [[planet]]'s dwelling of the [[future]]. The [[house]] is a product of the [[Plytob Space Igloo Construction firm]] and is suspended in the [[air]] by means of [[magno-dyhover jet]]s, stored in the [[attic]], which are also able to propel the house in any [[direction]]. There is [[machine]]ry for the [[recycling]] of air and [[waste]] in the [[cellar]] and there is a greater space between the house's double transparent [[wall]]s at the top for greater stability. | * The highlight of the State Fair is the [[Bubble House]] from [[Astra]], the [[planet]]'s dwelling of the [[future]].

* [[Jupiter]]'s contribution, still in the early stages of development, is the [[Dematerialization Centre]] and is said to be the travel means of the future. A person is transported by dematerilisation to any destination they require in one [[second]]. The machine works by [[chemical]] electro-magnetic reactions and is soon to be in service throughout the [[Universe]]. | * [[Jupiter]]'s contribution, still in the early stages of development, is the [[Dematerialization Centre]] and is said to be the travel means of the future.
