Stardust Station

The largest space station ever created, Stardust is its own self contained city. Complete with a square half mile of natural terrain shipped in chunks from a nearby system and surrounded by a glass dome to let natural light in, Stardust has something for everyone including a park AND the gift shop. It sells miniature replicas of the station! With expansion sets for new modules!

Governed by a stockholder elected board of directors known as the "Suits", Stardust is run as and owned by a corporation: Stardust Inc., who manages both planned expansion of the station and leasing space on the station to companies, individuals, and anyone with the cash. Expansion is done by attaching additional modules, custom manufactured by various contractors for the station.

As it is located outside of Federation territory, Stardust Inc. is actually its own sovereign nation. Where Stardust is unique, however, is its particular method of political alignment. All ships within Stardust's system are bound by a ceasefire agreement. Talon, Federation, Red Dagger, no matter where you come from you're not causing trouble at the threat of retaliation from Stardust's militia, who pilot Triglav and Blackhawk ships.

Adding to the peacekeeping efforts are the ludicrous number of weapons on the station itself, ranging from flak guns to CIWS turrets to torpedo tubes to three Anti-Matter cannons attached to the perimeter.

As a result, Stardust is quite likely the safest place in the Galaxy, even moreso than the friendly confines of the Federation. It's also a great place to get your hands on supplies. Any supplies. Except slaves. Otherwise, you can probably find Stim dealers and assassins for hire in some of the seedier sectors of the station. Hal runs a bar on one of the newer modules that has become THE place to hire crew, Red or Fed. Even the Suits show up once in a while to drink and get a feel for the public opinion of the station.
