The Eshpadir class Orbital Facility is a TL–15 passenger Space Station.

  • It is also known as the Eshpadir class Orbital Facility.

Description (Specifications)[edit]

Designed to fill a variety of functions, the Eshpadir-class Orbital Facility serves as the basic building block for orbital installations of many types. The plans shown here are for this basic module and can be used under a wide number of conditions.

The bridge consists of two levels; a domed, transparent bubble rises over the upper deck. This is a simple ring; a catwalk allowing access to upper computer banks, The center of the bridge is rigged for a holographic display which can project astrographic tactical information in 3-D.

Each of the small satellite domes is three decks in height; upper and lower levels of each small sphere are identical, so only one plan is provided for each. Domes hold living quarters for station personnel and transients.

The two docking bays are fitted to allow three ships to dock at each, one above, one below, and one on the plane of the station. Extensor docking tubes match passenger and cargo doors; those above and below are accessible by cargo lifts and iris valve ladders.

Turrets are mounted on the bottom of each satellite sphere and at the top of the bridge. All are remotely controlled from bridge stations.
