"Industrial Revolution" is set in a future where space exploration and colonization are advancing rapidly. The story centers around the planet Pandora, which is being developed and industrialized by a group of pioneers. These settlers, backed by the powerful Industrial Company, aim to establish a self-sufficient colony by exploiting Pandora’s rich mineral resources and using advanced technology.The central conflict of the story arises from the tension between the settlers on Pandora and Earth’s established bureaucratic government. The colonists, who value independence and innovation, find themselves at odds with the Earth government’s attempts to impose control and regulation on their industrial activities.The protagonist, Johnnie Risling, is a key figure among the settlers. He embodies the spirit of entrepreneurship and self-reliance that defines the colonists. As the story progresses, Johnnie and his fellow settlers face increasing pressure from Earth authorities, leading to a showdown that highlights the themes of independence, economic freedom, and the right to self-determination.
