Interplanetary age link goes to old Sundering article instead.
In standard designs, automatic nanotech systems maintain a bubblehab and scavenge the atmosphere for building and maintenance materials. The hab itself is an artificial organism; it has at least the kind of vegetative awareness of a plant or a plantbot, but even the earlier models could be sentient or sapient, and some are even transapient. The first Interplanetary Age bubblehabs were manufactured by sophonts and their bots, but by the dawn of the Nanotech Age designs arose that were neumann-capable, and could grow and reproduce the way most modern bubblehabs do.
