Space Station	comment	An artificial structure in space, where people live and work. Unlike the Cool Starship, the Space Station is usually fixed in orbit around a planet or at a particular point in space. It also allows for the construction of a standing studio set and avoids expensive location shoots. Real-world space stations have existed since 1971 (Salyut 1) and four of them — the International Space Station, Tiangong and Genesis I & II (both unmanned) — are currently in orbit. These are all much smaller than what one is used to in sci-fi shows. The list for the interested can be seen below. Space stations in fiction have a tendency to be very large, sometimes housing an entire city. Many have adopted a wheel design for a centrifuge-based system of gravitynote This type of space station is sometimes referred to as von Braun wheel or "bublik city" (unless Artificial Gravity is employed), but this is not obligatory. If sufficiently large to support a sizable permanent population, a space-station may be referred to as an "orbital habitat" or "space colony". Don't drop it! The problem of gas exchange and food production is often solved by incorporating a closed ecosystem and green plants onboard, sometimes in dirt, sometimes hydroponics, sometimes algae aquaculture. Put a station near a star, and you have a Stellar Station.

The station is hidden 40 billion years away from The Empire in a cluster of Necromantically "flipped" stars and is only accessed through an Extradimensional Shortcut.

Space Station / int_19254472	comment	Stars! (1995) allows space stations to be built around colony worlds. A race's homeworld gets one automatically at the start of the game and they provide defences for worlds, allow ships to be refuelled, and can even be fitted with stargates and mass drivers to allow ships and resources to be transported faster and more efficiently than using transport ships alone. For Alternate Reality races, they also provide a home for your colonists, since they cannot set foot on any world. The downside to this is, of course, should the station be destroyed, all the colonists will be killed.

They're automatically equipped with the best weapons, defenses, and equipment you have. They also increase your command point limit, allowing you to field a larger fleet without paying huge support fees. The reboot separates regular starbases from outposts. Outposts are built on warp points and prevent non-allies from navigating through them, while starbases are built in planetary orbits. Also, starbases provide command points, while outposts use them up.

Strangely enough, all space stations in the galaxy appear to have the exact same design. The stations have 3 decks: engineering, pleasure, and bio. Biodeck is the innermost one and uses "nanosoil" to recreate any planetary environment to the point where you can actually grow plants in it. The pleasure deck is all for the entertainment of tourists and employees. The engineering deck (outermost) includes power stations, factories, docks, security stations, communicators, sick bays, sleeping pods, bathrooms, etc.

Space Station / int_207208a9	comment	Many of them, surprisingly, have been built by Magneto, including: Multiple versions of his space station, 'Asteroid M', all of which tend to be absolutely enormous — as in, the remains of the original were turned into Utopia, the X-Men's island haven in the late 00s/early New 10s, and it was far from the largest. He also built Avalon out of a mixture of one of the versions of Asteroid M and Cable's then deactivated space station, Graymalkin, before it was eventually destroyed in a brutal battle between Exodus and Holocaust. The result was so vast that Cable successfully used the remains to build Providence, an entire floating city-state, home to over 200,000 people, with plenty of room to spare.

Space Station / int_247422c7	comment	Several space stations are featured in Honor Harrington: The one that gets focused upon most often is HMSS Hephaestus, a massive space station that is also the primary dockyard for the Royal Manticoran Navy. Most of the third book, The Short Victorious War, centers around Hancock Station, and the defense of it during the opening hours of the First Haven-Manticore War. Mission of Honor depicts the destruction of all of the major space stations in the Manticore system, with a death toll in the millions, including civilians. Notably, the three major shipyards are named after smithing gods: Hephaestus (Greek), Vulcan (Roman), Weyland (Norse). In addition to the major space stations used in various places, there are also numerous Space Forts used to guard wormhole junctions, and smaller defensive platforms in orbit over major planets. On Basilisk Station is incorrectly translated into Russian as Space Station "Basilisk", even though there isn't an actual space station of that name in the novel, and the name refers to a posting in the Basilisk System (i.e. Honor is stationed there). Although there is a sort of space station, in the form of a large connected mass of orbiting warehouses and docking equipment used for Baselisk's important role as a hub in Manticore's vast trade network. This gets destroyed during a battle with the Havenites, but is rebuilt later. The Wages of Sin series featured a number of unusual space stations. First an orbiting casino complex in the book Crown of Slaves called The Wages of Sin orbiting the planet Erewhon, and the next book Torch of Freedom, features Parmley Station, a giant amusement park in space that mostly served to impoverish the family of its founder, who generations later still live there, unable to afford to leave. Parmley Station is used as a base for slavers until it is captured by Beowulfian forces, who use it as a base for their anti-slaver operations (to include being Schmuck Bait for any Slavers unfortunate enough to still think it's safe haven).

Factories take in materials and create products. Trading stations and equipment docks buy and sell certain goods. Shipyards build ships and factories. The one-of-a-kind Player Headquarters can repair, reverse-engineer and manufacture new starships. Several space stations are also Big Dumb Objects; the Torus Aeternal is a Ringworld Planet encircling the Earth which is simultaneously an orbital city, military outpost, and shipyard.

Space Station / int_4c09ea5c	comment	Fenspace: The Fen have built a very large number of space stations throughout the solar system. Most of the early ones were built in a rather ramshackle way out of things like shipping containers, water tanks and space shuttle fuel tanks that had been vacuum-sealed and upgraded with handwaved technology, but the later ones, built after the Fen became more well established, are much more sophisticated and pre-planned. They can get rather varied, including callbacks to more retro space station designs (there's three separate Bernal spheres floating around, for instance) and various hollowed-out asteroids. While most space stations took inspiration from some part of science fiction or another to a greater of lesser degree, the one that takes the cake is almost certainly the A Baoa Qu, built by Mobile Suit Gundam fans who went through the trouble of sculpting a rather large asteroid into a mushroom shape so that they could build a replica of the anime's space fortress.

The Civilization V: Brave New World expansion adds the International Space Station to the list of projects that can be proposed through the United Nations.

Civilization: Call to Power allows you (once you research appropriate technology, to build cities in the "space" layer, effectively making them space stations. If you build the Space Elevator wonder, it automatically creates a "space city" right above the city where it was built.

The Lighthouse, which served as the base of the Secret Avengers. The Alpha Flight Low-Earth Orbit Space Station, after Alpha Flight more or less took over from SWORD in extraterrestrial diplomacy, which has been destroyed and rebuilt at least once. Many of them, surprisingly, have been built by Magneto, including: Multiple versions of his space station, 'Asteroid M', all of which tend to be absolutely enormous — as in, the remains of the original were turned into Utopia, the X-Men's island haven in the late 00s/early New 10s, and it was far from the largest. He also built Avalon out of a mixture of one of the versions of Asteroid M and Cable's then deactivated space station, Graymalkin, before it was eventually destroyed in a brutal battle between Exodus and Holocaust. The result was so vast that Cable successfully used the remains to build Providence, an entire floating city-state, home to over 200,000 people, with plenty of room to spare. Knowhere, which, like in the MCU, is a floating celestial head in deep space, and the Kyln, which is the main prison of the Nova Corps.

They are completely necessary for the Zentraedi continual survival due their inability to build and repair ships anything by themselves (the Protoculture, who created the Zentraedi as their slave soldiers, made sure they wouldn't have these abilities as an additional way to control them. It failed, but they still haven't learned how to repair and build things by themselves). The original series shows the UN Spacy hijacking one of the defeated Bodol Main Fleet, with expanded universe material adding they actually hijacked the whole set and that human emigration fleets will do the same to any satellite they stumble upon. In Macross II's Alternate Continuity Zentraedi Fleets appear to only have a single satellite each, with the UN Spacy capturing the one of the Bodol fleet and the one of a different Zentraedi Main Fleet.

Space Station / int_72f3e556	comment	Arrivals from the Dark and Trevelyan's Mission: The Lo'ona Aeo space has a number of heavily-armed space fortresses protecting their borders. Unfortunately, some of them have been somehow taken over by the Dromi, who use them as staging areas for raids into Lo'ona Aeo space. They typically have a mushroom-like shape, with the "stalk" being centered around a massive acceleration shaft — the central component of every contour drive. The third Arivals novel involves the assault on one such fortress, dubbed the Rathole, by the human mercenaries employed by the Lo'ona Aeo (they use the above-mentioned acceleration shaft to enter the station). There are also unarmed trading posts located in the border sectors, from where large trade ships depart to alien worlds. In The Faraway Saikat, the recently-built Saikat Research Station is a massive circle built by the Kni'lina for the joint human-Kni'lina research team, whose purpose is to study the primitive natives of Saikat. Given the Kni'lina cultural emphasis on personal space, the huge station has been designed for a relatively small research team (roughly two dozen Kni'lina). The station is separated into the human and Kni'lina halves of equal area, even though humans don't require nearly as much space. While the station is unarmed, it does feature a bio-emitter, which can be used to wipe out all life within a certain area on the planet below. The purpose is to decide which of the two hominid races on the planet to wipe out for the benefit of the other.

The Citadel is the seat of the Galactic government and generally has an Ascetic Aesthetic, Star Trek look (until you get to the Wards) while Omega is a Wretched Hive asteroid base with Cyberpunk Used Future themes. A number of less important stations crop up in sidequests. In Mass Effect 2, Shepard is revived on a space station belonging to Cerberus. It's also implied that the Illusive Man's HQ is a space station. Illusive Man's space station is stated to move from system to system in order to keep its location hidden. Only high-ranking operatives are allowed to visit it, and are usually told by the Illusive Man himself where it currently is. The Heretic geth base of operations is a large space station in the middle of nowhere. The True geth build a massive space station in orbit of Rannoch (quarian homeworld) to serve as a giant server to house all geth programs. When the quarians attack in the third game, one of their first targets is the space station. Many programs are destroyed in the process. The fleets of the Systems Alliance (human government) are headquartered on the Arcturus space station. Unfortunately, it's one of the first targets of the Reapers in Mass Effect 3. All you find is the debris field. Mass Effect: Andromeda gives us the Nexus, a Citadel-inspired mobile station built for the Andromeda Initiative. It's supposed to serve the same purpose in the Andromeda Galaxy as the Citadel in the Milky Way and can be extended by the docking of the five Ark ships: Hyperion (human), Leusinia (asari), Natanus (turian), Paarchero (salarian), and Keelah Si'yah (quarian/drell/hanar/elcor/volus).

They mostly look the same, but at different scales and angles. Hilariously, despite the current page image and text, the very first episode of Deep Space Nine has the eponymous station move from one location to another under its own force. It's still basically stationary by Star Trek standards, since it is stuck in a single system. Many real-world space stations have maneuvering thrusters for station-keeping, and Chief O'Brien treknobabbled his way through the rest. The pilot episode of Star Trek: Voyager starts with Voyager docked to Deep Space Nine, only to end up at the Array on the other side of the galaxy, whose sole inhabitant is the Caretaker. Unfortunately the destruction of the Array strands them there, kicking off the series premise.

Space Station / int_90e2f673	comment	There are a number of different types of spacestations in BattleTech, but the rarest and most important is the Recharging Station, which is typically located at a star system's zenith or nadir point and uses solar sails to collect solar energy. When a visiting jumpship arrives, the Recharging Station can use a microwave emitter to recharge the jumpship's jump drive in a matter of minutes or hours instead of the ship having to wait days or weeks to recharge via passively collecting solar energy themselves. Never common to begin with, the technical information needed to construct them was lost during the Succession Wars.

Both types can move prior to deploying, at which point they are unable to be "undeployed", although the Expansion Pack fixes that. Mining bases are unarmed and position themselves over resource-rich asteroids in order to process them. Military bases can be built of different types, depending on the type of weapons you want them to have (missile, proton, ion, quantum). They cannot use weapons when mobile. They also repair friendly ships in the vicinity. The campaign also has resort and hospital stations, as well as the Darzok HQ, which must be destroyed to win the game.

It's an enormous construction in orbit of a lifeless planet, consisting of hundreds (if not thousands) of ships and stations welded together. In fact, it's not so much a space station as a space city. It is definitely of a Wretched Hive variety. It's also the place where Picard first meets Guinan, although she's a little upset he doesn't know who she is (she's also still suffering from Nexus withdrawal). Naturally, the fact that it's built from numerous ships of different cultures proves to be important in several ways.

Space Station / int_afc86b0a	comment	The Battle School in Ender's Game is an orbital facility made for training children for war against Formics. The gravity was said to be provided by rotation, leaving the hub in the middle with no gravity, allowing them to have their battles in weightlessness. However at least one character points out that this explanation doesn't actually add up based on how the battlerooms are actually hooked up. It's made explicit in Ender's Shadow that they actually have gravity-manipulation technology that they reverse engineered from the "dead" Bugger ships in the second Bugger War, although that part ends up being Ret Conned in the prequels, where Artificial Gravity turns out to be a purely human technology that Buggers/Formics don't even have. The station is later renamed Fleet School and is used to train future colony leaders and scout ship commanders, a wholly different skill set than for fleet commanders. It's also exclusive to children of IF officers and enlisted.

Space Station / int_b4967d43	comment	A common setting for levels in many Sonic the Hedgehog games, what with Eggman having so many technological resources at his disposal that he often commands a space armada which makes those final challenges a fight at literally the height of his power: Sonic the Hedgehog 2 and Sonic 3 & Knuckles have Death Egg Zone, a giant space station shaped like Dr. Eggman's head. In the former game, it is a single Boss-Only Level where you face off against Robo Sonic and the Death Egg Robot, but in the latter game, it consists of two action stages and one Boss-Only Level with a battle against the Great Eggman Robo. Sonic Drift 2 also has Death Egg Zone, which serves as the sixth and final track of the Blue GP. If you collect all six Chaos Emeralds as Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, or Amy, you face off against Dr. Eggman in one last race. If you collect all six Chaos Emeralds as Eggman, Metal Sonic, or Fang, you face off against Sonic. Sonic Blast has Silver Castle Zone, the fifth and final world in the game. It is a space station that resembles the Death Egg, and it consists of two action stages, and one or two boss stages depending on whether or not Sonic or Knuckles collected all five Chaos Emeralds. When you beat the game, Sonic or Knuckles watches it sink into the ocean. Sonic Adventure 2 has Lost Colony, Crazy Gadget, Eternal Engine and Cannon's Core, all of which are levels that take place onboard the ARK, a space colony built by Professor Gerald Robotnik, Dr. Eggman's grandfather. The Sonic Advance Trilogy has Cosmic Angel and X in 1, and Egg Utopia and XX in 2. The former game has a single action stage that serves as the second half of the sixth world, followed by a Boss-Only Level where you face the first bosses of Sonic 1 and 2, and the final boss. The latter game consists of two action stages followed a Boss-Only Level for the seventh world, then a single Boss-Only Level where you fight all seven bosses from the previous worlds before facing off against the Super Eggrobo Z. Shadow the Hedgehog has The Doom, Lost Impact, The ARK, Cosmic Fall, and Space Gadget. Like the aforementioned Sonic Adventure 2 levels, these levels all take place onboard the ARK. Sonic the Hedgehog 4 has E.G.G. Station in Episode 1 and Death Egg mk.II in Episode 2. The former level is a Boss-Only Level where you fight the four bosses from the previous levels before facing off against the Death Egg Robot, while the latter level consists of two action stages; the first one ending with a race against Metal Sonic, and the second ending with a battle against the Egg Heart.

It's absolutely enormous, being confirmed to be at least 3/4 the size of Hogwarts, modular (which means that Magneto can and does rearrange it as he wishes), and more or less entirely of Magneto's own construction, via asteroid mining — though as he notes, he got a second opinion from Mar-Vell on the designs, as well as help with more complex systems like life-support and artificial gravity. Transport is usually via teleporter, and it doesn't have many permanent residents, with the only named examples being Amelia Voght (the teleporter and medic), Piotr Rasputin a.k.a. Colossus (present because he prefers quiet and solitude), and Ruth Aldine a.k.a. Blindfold, whose nature as a mildly Mad Oracle (to begin with) led to Magneto taking her in as his ward.

After 214 years in cryonic suspension, Sen Geder wakes up and is informed by the hologram of a man named Tensa, that the station's orbit has degraded so much that it will fall in 16 days, and this is to be Sen's punishment for causing the nearby planet, Saarpedon, to be stuck as a single valley. Since Sen has no memory of any of these events, it's up to him to discover the truth, and see if he really was guilty for his crimes.

For example, the two largest space fortresses featured, Iserlohn Fortress and Geiersburg Fortress, were built by the Empire. In the first Gaiden prequel series, it is even revealed that the Empire has constructed a huge artificial resort satellite which orbits a gas giant.

Space Station / int_d5208281	comment	Outer Wilds has several orbital facilities in your home system that were built by the Nomai, which you can explore. The Sun Station has its own trope. When you wake up at the very start of the game, Giant's Deep is in the sky above your campsite, and you can see something in its orbit exploding and shooting something out. This is the Orbital Probe Cannon, designed to launch a deep space probe, though by the time you get up there, it's in several pieces, making exploration tricky. Working out what that probe is looking for and why it's firing now is a significant part of the plot. Beyond the orbit of Dark Bramble is a white hole on the very edge of your solar system, with an aptly-named White Hole Station floating nearby. It's mainly there to provide a way back to terra firma - the black hole in the center of Brittle Hollow leads to that white hole, while the station, when reactivated, serves as a tutorial for Nomai warp pads. Amusingly, it's implied that the Nomai had to build the thing after their people repeatedly fell through the white hole, to the extent that the station has a note reassuring a visitor that they "wouldn't be the first" to need a way back to Brittle Hollow. The Echoes of the Eye DLC adds another one, the Stranger, a ring world built by another alien race that's been orbiting your sun, hidden beneath an Invisibility Cloak, for hundreds of thousands of years. It's also mobile, as it originated outside your solar system, and shortly after you board it, it'll power up and start moving away from your sun. The entire DLC takes place aboard the Stranger as you uncover its secrets and purpose.

Space Station / int_e235270c	comment	Stellaris has several types. Starbases are used to lay claim to systems, and start out as lowly Frontier Outposts that with the proper technology can be expanded and upgraded into various configurations: shipyards, stardocks, trade hubs, or even spaceborne citadels bristling with weapons, all of which can have additional defenses in the form of weapon platforms floating nearby. The fact that your home system always starts out with a decent-sized starbase is the main defense against early-game rushes. Within your systems, you can build Mining Stations to extract minerals, energy, or strategic resources from celestial bodies, or Research Stations to make use of science-boosting features. These stations are presumably manned, but don't require any management beyond constructing them. Observation Posts are special stations built over worlds inhabited by pre-FTL socities, and depending on your empire's ethics you can have them perform various missions: passive observation, aggressive study, indoctrinating the locals with your empire's ethos, infiltrating and subverting the primitive society, or guiding the primitives into the Space Age and having them become a protectorate of your empire. Various events can occur where your scientists' mission goes off the rails or the locals begin to catch on to what you're doing. With mid-game technology, you can construct Orbital Habitats, which cost far more resources and time to build than normal space stations, but which can then be settled and, if fully upgraded/expanded, support a larger population than most planets. Their building options are more limited than planets, but since Stellaris counts star systems, not individual colonies, when it comes to the cap on directly-controlled worlds, constructing Orbitals over every planet, asteroid, or other celestial object possible is great for "tall" builds. The Federations expansion allows you the "Void Dwellers" start, where your species has three settled Habitats and the largest one orbits a shattered planet (presumably their home world). You also get a bonus to food production on Habitat farms and the technology to build more, and you can access the rare technology to upgrade them. The only downside is your species gets severe penalties for colonising actual planets. An Ascension Perk, "Galactic Wonders," lets you build even bigger constructions, from a Science Nexus that provides unparalleled research output, to a Sentry Array that when fully upgraded allows you to see everything in the galaxy, or even megastructures like Ring Worlds and Dyson Spheres. The Leviathans DLC introduces Enclaves, minor factions specializing in selling their services providing rare resources, research, or art, who are all based on space stations scattered across the galaxy. Said stations have enough defenses to deal with any wandering space creatures or Space Pirates, but a powerful fleet or lategame Crisis will be enough to destroy an Enclave station. The same DLC also introduces the eponymous Leviathan entities, one of which is the Enigmatic Fortress, a sprawling space citadel built by long-extinct Precursors. Only a lategame fleet has any hope of overcoming its defenses, and even then you must send in an away team and puzzle out how to shut down the Fortress safely, or else it will regenerate back to full combat-readiness, or wipe out the entire system with its Self-Destruct Mechanism. Successfully plundering its secrets will grant access to unique evasion and tracking technology for your starships.

Space Station / int_e5de447c	comment	X-COM: Interceptor has you building space stations instead of underground bases. You start with one, and you can later build up to a dozen or so, which becomes necessary later in the game, as you need to expand the range of your Space Fighters and protect more and more mining colonies. Your stations will occasionally be attacked by the aliens, requiring you to stop them, as well as equipping the stations with turrets. Also, your stations don't have any R&D facilities. Instead, all materials to be studied are shipped back to Earth, and the resulting information has to be downloaded using special communication arrays (no more than 3 per station). Oh, and the aliens love to send jamming probes to temporarily throttle your download speeds (are they working for AT&T or something?). Due to a bug in the game, it's pretty much impossible to destroy those probes, so all that's left is to wait for them to run out of power. The stations also don't have any construction facilities, so all fighters are actually built on colonies and shipped to the designated station (those convoys can be intercepted by aliens).

Space Station / int_e6267766	comment	Star Wars Legends: Centerpoint Station is a station larger than the Death Star which is at the midpoint between two worlds that revolve around each other in the Corellian system. No one knows who built it or how. The Corellian Trilogy involves it, a place inside it called Hollowtown, and the fact that a superweapon was built into it, with the ability to destroy distant stars. It returns briefly in the New Jedi Order, when someone tries to use it to fire at Vong worldships but misses and hits some allies. And then they refuse to use it again. A considerable part of Legacy of the Force is about the Corellians, trying to secede from the Galactic Federation of Free Worlds, commanding Centerpoint Station, which is destroyed eventually. ... which might have been a mistake, since in Fate of the Jedi it appears to have caged an Eldritch Abomination. note More specifically, a similar but smaller station was used to actually cage the Eldritch Abomination. Centerpoint was intended to be a cannon pointed at the cage, to be fired if the Lovecraftian creature escaped. Making Centerpoint a combination of superweapon, can of evil, and place for a few thousand people to live and grow food.

They can also be shot at, which can decrease their rating and affect the quality of goods found there (though they can't be destroyed), however doing so will result in the station siccing the Space Police on you.
