Chapter IX: Echelon Peak
Hello folks! Time for a last brief entry for the Phase One of the Aurora masterplan, before moving to Maya Bay to start Phase Two of the city development.
ECHELON PEAK
Probably you've already wondered on what could be what you could see in the distance on the top of the mountain in many shots overlooking Hellfire Bay, and in this chapter we are talking about that!
Well, this is an important astronomical complex site atop Mount Echelon (4387 ft.) at more to take advantage of the clear skies that its high altitude guarantees. This consists of two large optical telescopes and a trio of radio telescopes known as:
ARIA (AURORA RADIO INTERFEROMETRY ARRAY)
This is the most important part of the whole complex, consisting of three huge electronically connected antennas that forms a powerful interferometer able both to make x-rays observations and to communicate with distant spacecrafts.
Of course in the immediate vicinity, there are support structures such as offices, leisure facilities, cookhouses, small houses for the scientists, a fire station and a visitor center that offers guided tours with nighttime observations and other cultural activities.
Echelon Peak certainly isn't a place where we none ends up the case, as there is only one long road that connects it to the road network, of which what you see in the image above is just a quarter of the total length.
Keep followin' and you'll be suprised!
