Sun/Sol
#1 Energy Source. Dyson swarms collect vast amounts of energy for projects, such as wormhole creation.
Mercury
Mining Colonies, lots of precious and heavy metals here.
Venus
Possible terrafomation, take away all the excess atmosphere. Can't terraform all the way to earthlike due to incredibly slow rotation, though we can make surface life bearable and breathable.
If not, or for earlier time periods we can have floating cities in the atmosphere. Oxygen-Nitrogen atmosphere is a floating gas in Venus's atmosphere. A colony filled with air can be self supporting, with hydrogen supports for good measure, 50K above the surface of Venus. 50K above the surface of venus the pressure is 1MB(earth pressure) and the temperatures are earthlike. In fact, 50k above the surface of venus is the most earthlike atmospheric conditons in the solsystem. Users who go outside would not have to wear a pressure suit, only an oxygen mask and protection against the sulphuric acid in the atmosphere.
Earth
-
Luna
Is covered in Cities and Towns, with significant tunneling underground. Apollo Sites are sites of history museums.
Mars
There needs to be a city called Sagan on this planet. Terraformed in the story. Many Cities and Towns. Large population. Phobos and Deimos are cities and spaceports.
Ceres
Low gravity and spheircal shape make this an attractive place for resource gathering/ warehouse. Plenty of surface area to store things gaterhed in other areas, as well as resources itself. Has been a shipyard in many scifi scenarios.
Asteroids (belt, and other)
Can be the homes and living(source of sustainability) of may types of beings. Vesta has been hollowed out and transformed into an O’neill cylinder. 2 Pallas is the site of various burrowed cities.
Jupiter System
Jupiters atmosphere is too hostile for floating cities. Io is too hostile for permanet settlements. Io has a few science facilities. Europa is attractive due to large amounts of water. Ganymede is open terrain and resources for homesteading and so is Callisto. The other moons could be used like asteroids.
Saturn System
Saturn itself could be colonized with floating cities. Nice gravity at the surface and material to be utilized. Small moons can be utilized like asteroids. The rings need to made into a preserve. Under no circumstances may they be resourced or disturbed. They are too pretty. Enceledus is an interesting place, and has lots of volitiles. Titan is a facinating palce and will find itself effectivly colonized.
Uranus System
Uranus could be colonized with floating cities. Nice gravity at the surface and material to be utilized. The moon system offers homsteading and resource opportunities
Neptune System
Neptune could be colonized with floating cities. Nice gravity at the surface and material to be utilized. The moons, especially triton offers good oportunites for homesteading and resource utilization.
Interplanetary Objects
Plenty of asteroids and comets to utilize.
Kuiper Objects
Plenty of objects to utilize and homestead on/in.
Oort Cloud
Same as kuiper belt.
