Human naming conventions are largely the same as they are in our world. While a variety of new cultures have been established in the wake of the Great Embarkment and the widespread distance and rapidly decreasing density of human population relative to their volume populated, these cultures still find their roots in old Earth traditions, and so names can often find roots or similarities to identities we are familiar with. | Human naming conventions are largely the same as they are in our world.

Humans in the world of Space Station 13 are notably more resilient than we are, due to vastly improved physical therapy, drug treatment, and access to supreme medical technology. The average age is just shy of 100 years, and the longest living human has been recorded at 193 years and counting, though mental faculties can quickly devolve regardless of a doctor's best efforts. | Humans in the world of Space Station 13 are notably more resilient than we are, due to vastly improved physical therapy, drug treatment, and access to supreme medical technology.

The average height of a human male is about 5'8", while women are around 5'6". Humans that grow up in space tend to be taller, especially in environments that lack artificial gravity, though this can spur on a number of other development problems, such as low bone density, weak cardiovascular muscle, and malformed structures. | The average height of a human male is about 5'8", while women are around 5'6".
