*Where are the frontiers of human beings in the Blade Runner universe? What is OFF WORLD for me? Agreed or not? If I not wrong, based on Philip K. Dicks book, Mars is the first alien planet terraformed and colonized by humans. It is managed by the United Nations, but is administered by executively Shimata-Dominguez Corporation. Shimata and Dominguez are the owners of the company (1st Japanese and other American), and also the names of each of the two existing colonies. From the Earth is strongly promoted the colonization of this alternate world through intensive advertising campaign that informs its advantages over Earth. Off World offers technological, slave labor or replicants under demanding, clean spaces, breathable and opened to future. The migration program encourages the incorporation of future trainers of families and offering legitimate opportunities of jobs under excellent working conditions, mainly administrative staff. The only requirement to be a colonizer is to be physically and mentally healthy. The Tyrell Corporation draws indirect benefits from Off World androids providing work for all range of dities, mainly the most hard and uncomfortable. The transport is carried out by settlers company Pan-Am, (ceased any activity in1991) which provides space launches.

In the book, "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep", any and all healthy humans were asked by the UN to evacuate Earth and save the human race by moving to Mars essentially.

The BR expanded universe encompasses all of the place names, as Tannhauser Gate, Orion, referred in Roy Batty's monologue. I can assume that the film differs from the book, and human beings frontiers are beyond than Mars.

The off-world colonies rules, especially when we can only dream about what's going on there.
