A defending behemoth, the MOSS is often seen as the defenders of the realm.

• N/A

To be a central hub for the security of either a section of a system or an entire system.

Two rectangular structures, one over the other, connected by a large tubular structure running horizontally between them. It is all surrounded by a massive ring structure that hold the majority of the docking facilities.

Developed and built only a few years before the Pirate War, the Military Orbital Space Station was created to attempt to deal with the rising threat of piracy over all. With these littering the Jaspis system, traders and miners would always have the Weltraumflotte within a few AUs reach.

These behemoths played a critical role during the War as they constantly kept watch of their control zones and provided regular havens for damaged warships and fleeing civilians. Today, the MOSS is seen as a silent defender who had outlived much of its purpose now.

The Agricultural Sector is located in the central spire and span across nearly a full third of the decks.

The Command Sector is located in the center deck of the central spire.

The Control Center is located in the center of the Command Sector and comprises of a triple ring pattern centered on the computer core. Each ring contains 20 seats with an operator controlling a twentieth of the MOSS' control zone. The first ring is dedicated to sensors and communications, the second ring is dedicated to weapon systems, and the third ring is dedicated towards operations of strike craft and infantry.

A 50-kilometer ring rotating around the central spire, this ring holds all docking bays and ports available for any ship designed by Abwehran Imperial Yards. A few bays are dedicated towards ships of non-AIY design.

Taking up a full two decks, Engineering contains twelve Heavy Water Fusion-Fission Reactors with twenty-four fusion reactors for back-up and nearly 200 batteries collecting energy from solar panels lining the MOSS' armor.

The Industrial Sector is the entire bottom box of the MOSS. This contains a massive factory complex and four shipyards built in.

The top box of the MOSS, the Residential houses all personnel for the station itself. Any remaining personnel are to remain in the ships.

A few decks of the Central Spire are dedicated towards the recreation of soldiers including gyms, lounges, bars, and a variety of other activities.

The MOSS is built using the Tri-Layer Armor system in combination with standard military hull and framework.

A powerful and robust computer system using the standard military processors connected via Molecular Circuitry to connect to the various Data

Storage and Displays on board.

• Station Gravatronic Radar
• Infrared Spectrometer
• Various Imaging Scanner Package

• Radio
• Station Laser Communication
• Sound-Powered Telephones

The essential air/water filtration system are provided by the Agricultural Sectors of the ship and city capable water treatment facility. Gravity is created by Unidirectional Gravity Plating.

The only propulsion system available are a series of fusion thrusters to keep the station in orbit.

The MOSS has a Hazard Shield system to protect it from radiation.
