Concept · the zoom ladder's last rung

The Interplanetary Ripple — Earth, Moon, Mars

Past the globe, worlds become the dots. Circles aggregate per world, chains become light-lagged arcs, and the one honest new number is the delay a ripple crosses.

Earth 2,481 circles · 1.2M acts Moon 3 circles · 412 acts Mars 1 circle · 187 acts 1.3s light delay · 9 links 14 min light delay · 3 links

Worlds are the dots now

Same rule as every rung of the ladder: zoom out one level and the previous level's map becomes a single aggregate. A world shows circles, acts, and participation — never members.

Light delay is the new honest number

Distance stops being miles and becomes minutes: Moon 1.3s, Mars 3–22 min. "An act on Gale Crater inspired one in Fort Myers 14 minutes later" — the Multiplication Effect, interplanetary.

Nothing else changes

The four interactions, safeguarded circles, aggregate-only crossings, one gradient per screen — a Mars colony's circle plays the Kindness Cup exactly like Bath Hockey Club does.

Speculative rung — the ladder's rule (aggregate up, never expose down) is what makes it free: no new privacy model needed. ← Back to the zoom ladder
