Science is conducted by amateur societies and eccentric individuals in personal laboratories, observatories and conservatories or out in the field while on board a warship or exploration vessel. The Society of Gentleman Scholars is the premiere of these amateur societies, supporting scientific study in a wide variety of fields. They fund projects in cartography, biology, medicine, statistics and physics, but the majority of funding goes to archaeological expeditions. In search of pre-Plague artifacts, ruins and knowledge which have been hidden by millenia of overgrowth, these archaeological expeditions are typically led by one or more immortals and supervised by a Seal. Findings are presented at the bi-annual meetings of the Society on Juneau and in attendance is the who’s who of the Republic and a number of mortals in the cosmopolitan elite. Most of the infrastructure and technological devices in Orion’s Arm is maintained by a corp of mechanics and guilded trademen using schematics provided to them by the Scribes.
