Dark Satanic Mills

Ten years after passing Beta Crucis, Satan should have (many unknown, remember) calmed down:

it will no longer be illuminated any more than inhabited planets;

the cold, exposed rocks will have absorbed any excess heat that has not been re-radiated;

temperature will be tolerable and decreasing steadily though not rapidly;

 industry will be able to build;

heat output will be balanced with loss;

the atmosphere will be poisonous and most jobs will be automated so radioactive waste will be unproblematic;

the surface will be warm, lit by stars and lamps;

radio beacons will guide cargo shuttles;

there will be nuclear conversion units everywhere;

tons of formerly rare materials will be exported daily;

hopefully, SSL will monopolize the sale of franchises;

there will be both great wealth and great war potential as later with Mirkheim which Falkayn will seek, find and not hand over to van Rijn.
