# What does the future hold? It’s hard to imagine a world without Frux. It rules everything around us. Heck, the helper robot of Perstemico was built from parts bought with Frux. Albeit, it seems to be having some wires short circuiting these days. I’ve been told that there are worlds to be explored, worlds of opportunity just outside of this galactic belt. Ever since the War of the Factions, all personnel of Radixplor packed up their belongings and boarded these emergency pods. They are equipped with the bare minimum for your everyday Rennovan, a shop to buy items and parts for various gadgetry you own, a robot and rover locker, a map of your immediate worlds, and progress on discovering facts and learnings about other planets. ![ShipDashboard](./ShipDashboard.jpg) Outside Perstemico, on the home planet of Rennova a dense smog shrouds the capital city of Radixplor, its particulates enveloping the city with memories of past successes and failures. This is not your parents' world anymore. Centraxes has changed drastically over the years, a once vibrant city powered by the industrial revolution is now a shell of its former self. Many have left — in search of jobs elsewhere, a brighter future, a more stable environment for their future generations. There is nothing left in this paltry city, except the fleeting despair of once was, the former effervescence of lives bursting with energy. However, the one saving grace of this planet is its rich abundance of biology. I imagine that here we can gain some Frux for getting some life sciences questions correct; I guess we will see, fire up the thrusters let's plot a course to Rennova! Perstemico is an immersive experience that has the ability to engage and teach kids of all ages the usefulness and fun that STEM is. Step inside our world on the spaceship Perstemico, and travel to distant planets collecting Frux. Acquire parts from the shop for Frux to build your robot and rover. From the introduction of Chemistry to balancing weights on a scale, learning will be forever changed by immersion. ![WeightedScales](./WeightedScales.jpg) When the numbers are thrown around, when you think of the challenge of catalyzing youth to success, the task is daunting. It would take an incredible amount of effort, a breadth of knowledge, a magic leap. Perstemico awaits, are you ready to salvage our future?
