Mobile Industry Programme

An economic and industrial upgrade process employed by Serendip Belt. Originally created to allow critical industries to be moved close to sources of raw materials or avoid collisions with rogue planetoids, MIP asteroids are equipped with low-power drives and can relocate themselves within the eponymous belt.

An unintended benefit is that a proportion of the population and industry can be hidden from an attacker. Serendip Belt maintains a significant force of space-capable infantry on MIP asteroids, plus a security force for combat within asteroid habitats.
