Super Ark

Super Colonist Ark, also known as Super Arks

Starting in 2110, a series of Super Colonist Arks were built in order to speed up the process of creating new colonies.

These Super Arks had many of the same features of the original Colonist Arks with the biggest difference being their size. While the NOAH Class was designed to transport around 10,000 colonists in hibernation, the Africa Class was designed to transport 50,000 colonists and the California Class was designed to transport 20,000 colonists.

When the Africa and California classes were first introduced, there were facilities for mass producing the NOAH class, but the other two classes were built on a one by one basis. It was only later that United Earth started mass producing those two classes.
