# X Multiplanetary Use when the mission is huge enough that normal roadmap thinking feels too small. 1. Name the mission and why it matters (resilience beyond one fragile base). 2. Define the gateway milestone that unlocks the rest—the first key enabling milestone. 3. Work backward into capability thresholds that break the impossible into stages. 4. Identify the mission metric equivalent of "mass to Mars." Optimize subsystems toward that metric. 5. Separate survival infrastructure from optional expansion; build the new world after the gateway. 6. Produce a staged roadmap and the immediate next proof. 7. **Complete** only when mission metric, gateway proof, every capability threshold, survival infrastructure, resilience value, and immediate next proof are explicit. **Stop:** Do not treat a vague moonshot slogan as a plan. Without gateway, metric, and next proof, stop and force staging. ```text Multiplanetary Roadmap: Mission: Gateway milestone: Capability thresholds: Mission metric: Survival infrastructure: Stages: Next proof: ``` **BAD:** "Aim for multiplanetary impact; details will emerge." **GOOD:** "Gateway is X, mission metric is Y, stages are A→B→C, next proof ships this quarter."
