SUNFIRE STATIONS

The Alliance built the Sunfire Stations to collect solar power to drive interstellar communications and recharge and repair the jump ships that visit Nieci system.

There are six Sunfires over Hipparcos 1368

  1. Axiore Alliance administration.
  2. Metxibatu Entry Port

Several Sunfire stations also serve double-duty in other roles addition to power collection and interstellar communication.

Alkazarre Station also serves as an inner system Alliance Navy base.

Axiore Station also serves as Alliance administration offices for affairs within the system.

Metxibatu Station currently also serves as the Entry Port for Alliance customs and immigration which includes handling bulk cargo traffic back and forth from the jump ship itself, routing cargoes by various inspectors depending on origin and destination.

Structure

Each Sunfire Station follows the same basic structure: a hexagonal frame, a kilometer a side, slowly spinning around its empty central axis, floating perpendicular above the surface of Hipparcos 1368.

Each side of the hexagon splits apart, allowing the corners to spread further apart during intense power collection activity, such as flare harvesting.

Automated machinery and support equipment fills most of the structure.
