Description
A broad annular superstructure surrounds a disk-shaped command habitat suspended on armored cross-members. Four open quadrants provide unobstructed approach lanes to the inner docking galleries and hangars. The station combines traffic control, secure communications, customs processing, patrol coordination, defensive batteries, repair facilities, and accommodations for a permanent command staff. Individual stations carry local names or numerical identifiers while retaining the same standardized structure.
