And we're back in the midst of the future Milky Way.
But this time, we're out on Ferust's hapless moon. Elmere. Airless, dead, but far from lifeless. The moon Elmere is home to a few stellar colonies. Though most of the establishments here are majorly military based and are a part of the Ferusian Defense network that operates to insure the planet's safety for it's 2.9 million human inhabitants. The moon's mix of communication hubs and military outposts scan the perimeters of Ferusian space, to insure that threats, violations such as smuggling and criminals are detected and kept off from reaching the surface of Ferust. It's almost like border patrol, but far more extreme. It's also a training ground for military units as well as harboring various docking stations for the Aerene System's industrial transport network.
Here, we are visiting one of Elmere's most vital communication hubs and military outpost. Being one of Elmere's main stations, it works to manage and maintain the moon's busy communications network as every station works to update their status, to highten and insure the awarness of all bases on Elmere. The station is known primarily as the Tharastis Comm Station. It's located at a reasonably large valley called the Uzbek Sea, an area that's been pummeled by rock and debris, forming nearby craters, some which have long existed before discovery. As night falls, lasting over 19 and a half days, the extreme temperatures and total darkness experienced on Elmere often means, that activity outside the station is kept to a bare minimum.
The intensity of darkness on Elmere allows for zero-visibility outside unless you have a reasonably bright torch or a pressurized vehicle equipped with various fog-lights. A night on Elmere would be one of the blackest of nights you would ever experience. Besides that, all you would be able to see visible from the outside is the illuminated station and the stars in the clear night sky. It'd be another 19 and half days 'til the light of Aerene and its reflective parent planet, Ferust shines in the airless sky.
As you can see, outside of the Tharastis Comm Station is nothing more than rocks. Activity on the outside is at a low, whilst inside Tharastis, are dozen, even hundreds of people running the station, living life, in the station, equipped with whatever anyone would want and need; be that recreation & leisure, good food, a gym and crew quaters etc.
Thanks for viewing!
