Noosphere

The Noosphere is a communication technology developed by the Adeptus Mechanicus during the Great Crusade.

History
The designs for the Noosphere was originally discovered by Explorator Laszlo, sometime before the Great Crusade. Before the union of Mars and Terra, Laszlo made several expeditions to Terra to try to recover lost technology. Buried beneath the great crater of Kebira in the land of Gyptus, Laszlo discovered a large tomb complex that was guarded by the tribes of Gilf Kebir. When Laszlo's Skitarri defeated the tribesmen, Laszlo discovered remnants of technology that were thought to be lost forever. He discovered the secrets of energy transference, atomic restructuring, chemical engineering and most importantly the evolution of human cognition and communication through the Noosphere.

After discovering the secrets of the Noosphere, Laszlo gave the technology to his apprentice Adept Cacye, who in turn gave it to famed Mistress of Magma City Koriel Zeth. After Zeth was given the technology she developed it further and gifted it to her allies such as Ipluviel Maximal and Fabricator Locum Kane. The Noosphere allowed a noospherically modified techpriest to view information and communication that was one and same, a form of collective consciousness that emerges from the interaction of human minds and where knowledge becomes visible in shoals of light.

During the Schism of Mars when the Vaults of Moravec were opened and the corrupted scrapcode was released, the Noosphere protected Magma City and forges that utilized  it from the infection. This led to Fabricator General Kelbor-Hal sending his emissary Melgator to Magma City to acquire this technology and to learn how Magma City survived the scrapcode.
