Introduction

It is difficult to define the Orman Group with a single term. It is all of these things at once:

  • Multi-generational group marriage family (the specific term they use is 'line family'.)
  • Research group/think-tank specialising in computing with a focus in artificial intelligence.
  • School/lab for the education of the family's children & for outsiders who qualify.
  • Corporation promoting and protecting all of the family members' assets and contributions.

Location

The Orman Complex is part of a larger set of semi-underground research complexes, collectively called Ganymede Research Centre. The Centre is located in the Perrine Regio of Ganymede, a moon of Jupiter. The Orman Complex itself takes up about 2 hectares of the 34 hectare Centre.
