A view of the MAST district and MAST tower in New Atlantis
New Atlantis is the capital city of the United Colonies, located on the planet Jemison, in the Alpha Centauri System.
The city itself is a melting pot of every race, creed, and ethnicity of humanity.[1]
The city is divided into five main districts: the Spaceport, The Well, the Commercial District, the MAST District, and the Residential District. Each district, except the Well, feature the New Atlantis Transit which acts as transport for the players to move in between districts.
To learn more of New Atlantis and their history, see the lore article.

- Nothing good comes from the Well.
- Dawn's Roost has the best food in the Settled Systems!
- Hope you're not agoraphobic.

- Did you hear that commotion? I hope nobody is hurt...
- Maybe... maybe UC Security's just... doing a training exercise. That must be it.

ConversationsEdit
- Resident 1: "So... what's the point?"
- Resident 2: "Of what?"
- Resident 1: "This? Is it some sort of art? A zen garden? What?"
- Resident 2: "It's a communal art installation. It's supposed to... look nice."
- Resident 1: "I guess. But I'm just saying you could have a whole batball field, or some food stands. Something useful."
- Resident 2: "It's always something with you."
- Home Shopper 1: "Last stop. Apollo."
- Home Shopper 2: "My favorite."
- Home Shopper 1: "And we can afford it? Mercury is much cheaper."
- Home Shopper 2: "Got the mortgage approval signed and ready with GalBank. Apollo's got the best view of the city. And it's closer to NAT."
- Home Shopper 1: "Like by 30 feet!"
- Home Shopper 2: "Like I said, it's closer."
- Resident 1: "Last minute check. Breath?"
- Resident 2: "Check."
- Resident 1: "Shower? Hair?"
- Resident 2: "Check and double check."
- Resident 1: "Lucky shirt?"
- Resident 2: "It's never let me down."
- Resident 1: "You are ready for some shock and awe, girlfriend. He won't know what hit him."
- Old Man: "Shayla would be 40 now."
- Old Woman: "You got to let her go. We got the other children, grandkids, too."
- Old Man: "But Shayla had such fire in her, she could've been anything."
- Old Woman: "I miss her, too, but... after the accident. It's a mercy she went the way she did."
- Old Man: "Even an extra day or two with her... That would've been the blessing."
- Resident 1: "Nice day for a picnic."
- Resident 2: "I love it here."
- Resident 1: "Shame about Sam."
- Resident 2: "The Well's no place to raise your niece. I mean, if they pitched in a little we could buy them a small two bedroom... Maybe even three?"
- Resident 1: "Dennis is... Dennis. If we give him any money at all, it'll be gone who knows where before you could blink."
- Resident 2: "*sigh* A real shame about Sam."
- Resident 1: "Your first day tomorrow?"
- Resident 2: "Yeah, I officially passed my certificate. You're looking at a genuine spaceport technician."
- Resident 1: "Fancy! You making the large stacks of credits now?"
- Resident 2: "Oh, the largest."
- Resident 1: "Looks like we're eating at Dawn's Roost tomorrow night."
- Resident 2: "I was thinking maybe... Chunks?"
- Resident 1: "Be still my heart."
- Patron 1: "I wonder if the Roost's dreamed up some new cocktail to try."
- Patron 2: "I might just stick with something on tap."
- Patron 1: "What's the fun in that?"
- Patron 2: "Remember the "Crimson Surprise?" It was almost pure vodka."
- Patron 1: "That was one hell of a night."
- Patron 2: "Lucky you. I don't remember anything after the second glass. Not one bit."
- Shady Woman: "So this is the good stuff. Straight from Neon."
- Shady Man: "It better be for the price you're asking."
- Shady Woman: "Security's tight. This might be all that's here in New Atlantis. And when it's gone, it's gone."
- Shady Man: "I don't know. Hmm."
- Shady Woman: "Just don't take all day."
- Resident 1: "New Atlantis is something else. The pride of humanity."
- Resident 2: "It's sad."
- Resident 1: "Sad? It's gorgeous, just look at it."
- Resident 2: "No, I mean... Yes. More that there was a time when Earth had dozens, hundreds of cities like this. Paris, DC, Shanghai. And now..."
- Resident 1: "My teacher said we lost billions when the Earth fell. And we really haven't fully recovered yet.
- Resident 2: "Maybe one day."
- Patient: "You know, I'm not feeling that bad."
- Husband: "We have an appointment, you're seeing the doctor. That's it."
- Patient: "I... Maybe some other time. I have that report that's due."
- Husband: "I talked to your boss, she agreed that you need to take care of yourself. I know it's tough, honey. But a lot of times the earlier they catch something the better it is."
- Patient: "You're right. I know you're right. I just wish they wouldn't keep us waiting so long."
- Shopper 1: "With the consignment shop closed, I guess I have to go to EIT."
- Shopper 2: "What's wrong with that? EIT is the best."
- Shopper 1: "It's just full of trendy nonsense."
- Shopper 2: "Are you saying my wardrobe is nonsense?"
- Shopper 1: "Sorry, the prices are... very high."
- Shopper 2: "Well, at least your clothes won't smell."
- Resident 1: "That movie was epic."
- Resident 2: "Definitely better than the last Interceptor."
- Resident 1: "But why did they replace the Handler? I thought the actress was amazing."
- Resident 2: "She turned them down. She apparently signed on to do some Shakespeare film. King Lear, I think?"
- Resident 1: "How many damned versions of Shakespeare do we need? I mean after Kincaid's King Lear, why bother, right?"
- Resident 2: "Huh? You have hidden depths, my friend."
- Parent 1: "So after an hour of whining they're finally out here."
- Parent 2: "They're just sitting on the grass! They should be playing."
- Parent 1: "Do you want to go another three rounds with them?"

- Executive 1: "Times change. But one thing's constant: people need coffee."
- Executive 2: "I need to report back, but... this is very encouraging."
- Employee 1: "Don't be nervous. You got this."
- Employee 2: "Easy for you to say, Top-of-the-Class."
- Employee 1: "Infinity is huge, like staggeringly huge. They need people like you. Even with your grades."
- Employee 2: "Yeah, I'm sure a Junior Assistant is vital."
- Employee 1: "It's your foot in the door. Show initiative, positive attitude, and the sky's the limit."
- Employee 2: "I could see how you made head cheerleader."
- Employee 1: "Goooo Timberwolves!"
- Employee 2: "*laugh*"
- Guard: "You can't go in. You just can't."
- Fangirl: "But David's my friend. He writes me."
- Guard: "I hate to break it to you, but his PA is the one who signs all those cards and headshots. Mr. Barron's a very busy and important man."
- Fangirl: "But I came all this way."
- Guard: "Aww... Listen, I might be able to hook you up with some merch. Maybe get you a ticket to a speaking gig he's got. That's all I can do."
- Fangirl: "You are the... BEST!"
- Gardener 1: "Just look at it. It took years to get it looking just like this."
- Gardener 2: "Whatever you say."
- Gardener 1: "I know you think this is a joke of a job. But keeping the grounds immaculate, you can take pride in it."
- Gardener 2: "Nobody cares. Nobody's looking at it."
- Gardener 1: "These greens are the heart of the Commercial District. And if it's clean, if it's thriving, so does New Atlantis."
- Gardener 2: "I'm just here for the paycheck."
- Gardener 1: "*chuckle* You'll come around. You'll see."
- Resident 1: "Wow. You look completely different."
- Resident 2: "*laugh* It's me."
- Resident 1: "I mean, you look great -- but isn't it going to confuse him? He won't even recognize you."
- Resident 2: "I'll be mysterious. Oooh."
- Resident 1: "Zoey, you are one in a million."
- Resident 2: "Maybe for our third date, I'll be a red-head."
- Businesswoman: "Can we run through it one more time?"
- Businessman: "You can over rehearse. It'll sound canned. We got to keep it loose."
- Businesswoman: "But I keep stumbling over the third quarter projections."
- Businessman: "We've been over it a million times. They won't care about a flawless presentation. What they will care about is the projected P/L. And we got that covered."
- Businesswoman: "We're going to own this meeting!"
- Businessman: "That's the spirit!"
- Tracker 1: "I feel... under dressed."
- Tracker 2: "*chuckle* Yeah, I don't know why they set up shop here. They'd be better off in Neon. But Outland's used to people like us."
- Tracker 1: "So the hardware's worth the trip?"
- Tracker 2: "Best in the Settled Systems. Expensive as hell, but once you are kitted out we can go after the big bounties."
- Tracker 1: "I just wish everyone wasn't staring at us."
- Tracker 2: "Screw them. Let's do some business."
- Husband: "The kids miss you."
- Businesswoman: "The project has to be done this quarter. Our back is against the wall."
- Husband: "But surely you can take a day off. Everyone needs to recharge."
- Businesswoman: "It's not mandatory, but people notice who's there and who's not. We nail this and careers are going to change. And the bonus."
- Husband: "I know, I know. I just... hope it's worth it."
- Businesswoman: "I... I can stay for a little while longer. It's just three more days."
- Resident 1: "They'll have our table ready soon."
- Resident 2: "Did we have to come early? You know they'll be late."
- Resident 1: "It's a matter of courtesy."
- Resident 2: "We always wind up waiting forever, though."
- Resident 1: "There are worse fates than eating appetizers at the Whetstone, love."
- Resident 2: "*sigh* Well, I'll try to not fill up on their bread plate."
- Businesswoman: "That Neon fella... I missed it. How'd it go?"
- Businessman: "Barely made it off the starting line then WHAM. Dead."
- Businesswoman: "Haha. Looks like I didn't miss anything."
- Businessman: "That's the Red Mile for you, never can tell."
- Businesswoman: "I heard a rumor Donovan Rhys is gonna run again."
- Businessman: "I call bullshit. That rumors been circulating for months. He's retired."
- Businesswoman: "Too bad, his runs were the best."
- Businessman: "No argument here."
- Businesswoman: "Were you seen?"
- Businessman: "It's not like we're doing anything wrong. Or illegal."
- Businesswoman: "If my boss found out I was dating someone from... you know."
- Businessman: "We never, ever, talk about work. Or any trade secret stuff. It's none of their business what I do in my personal life."
- Businesswoman: "Tell that to me when I get fired."
- Businessman: "So... this is it... You want to end it?"
- Businesswoman: "No, nonono. I just... worry."
- Businessman: "It'll be okay."

The presence of such a memorial implies the occurrence of a significant and impactful conflict on New Atlantis, underscoring the importance of the battle that took place.
- Design Director Emil Pagliarulo described the city as "in a lot of ways... a true reflection of the future of our world".
