+ | '''Pelgos''' are artificial islands upon which housing and other structures are built. The [[Ark]] contains hundreds of pelgos, built with a varying range of materials. The term "pelgo" is a corruption of "[[wikipedia:archipelago|archipelago]]", a word which refers to a natural cluster of islands.<ref name="ishmael-pelgo"/> |
Each pelgo is a [[Wikipedia:Spar (platform)|spar]]; its mass is mostly below sea level, and a "ballast control section" is used to keep the pelgo afloat.<ref name="aquarium-pelgo-spar"/> Although the pelgos near the Upper Ark are quite reliable, the [[Guests]]' pelgos are very dangerous to live in. The Ark's extreme resource shortage forced the Ark's population to construct Guest pelgos from recycled steel, which is prone to corrosion and collapse.<ref name="ishmael-steel"/> |
