Perimeter appears to be part of colony expansion and terraplatforming efforts. Its data Wall, Hauler, and Twin Relays suggest heavy data collection and transmission, though the purpose and outcome remain unclear. Most systems read as dormant.

Located in the colony's former farming sector. The zone contains research, cultivation, and processing facilities tied to food sustainability efforts. Environmental conditions are marshland with limited visibility and broad sightlines. Automated systems show signs of partial operation. A quarantine operation was initiated here prior to abandonment. The presence of an unidentified anomaly intersects multiple regions of the zone.

Outposts were the tip-of-the-spear for Tau Ceti colonization efforts. This zone's layout points to staging and logistics for planetary expeditions: launch, intake, processing, housing. Everything that followed started here.
