Established by the Imperium in 759 in order to observe the fluctuations of Delta Cephei from a distance of 7.5 parsecs, or 24.45 light years, the starbase maintains communications with Capital via xboat through a 100-year leasing agreement, of sorts, with the Comsentient Alliance.
Arcturus II has a long and rather bloody history. Originally established as Starbase Orion and later changed to Arcturus under the command of Commander Hlury Harog, it was the scene of one of the Imperium's bloodiest mutinies in recorded history. Although the mutiny was quelled, Commander Harog was removed from his position for "insubordination and gross disobedience" and exiled to a frontier post in the Out Rim Void. The starbase was renamed Arcturus II in 1106 and placed under Commodore vice-Aaron's command.
Interestingly enough, Starbase Arcturus II is located within I-Glathriel and occupies a strategic location between the Aslan Hierate Colonial States and the Comsentient Alliance: thus while able to observe the fluctuations of Delta Cephei, it also keeps an eye on the combined threat of an expanding Aslan colonial thrust and the cohesive anti-Imperium influence of the Alliance.
