Port Lowell is a Mars base from the [[World of 2001]]

Described in Arthur C Clarke’s
The Lost Worlds of 2001 Port
Lowell is the largest human
settlement on the red planet.
The base takes its name from
Percival Lowell who did so
much to popularise early
twentieth century interest in
Mars. Dave Bowman is
headed for Port Lowell in The
Lost Worlds of 2001 before
being recalled to command
the [[Discovery (2001)|Discovery]]. The design for
Port Lowell is loosely derived
from a concept shown in Dr.
Robert Zubrin’s book, The
Case For Mars. Port Lowell
has been substantially
reworked for this release of
World of 2001, and now features wider surrounding scenery and specular reflections.
