Hotel
The Regolith Hotel has space to comfortably sleep over a million people, and occupies several large domed areas on the surface of the Regolith, made to resemble cities on Collena from the past. While the vast, vast majority of rooms are designed for Regalti (or Regalti sized beings), there are also rooms designed for the much larger
Maorian people, as well as more exotic aliens. There are even fifty thousand rooms that can readily have their atmospheres adjusted for almost any atmosphere mixture.
While these domed mega hotels superficially resemble cities, they generally only contain rooms for patrons, living quarters for the quarter million person staff, as well as plenty of places to go for eating and entertainment. There is also some commercial acitivity to support such a large structure, but industrial production is non-existant.
Aura Casino
While there are hundreds of places to eat and do other activities on the Regolith, the Aura Casino is the most well known. Travelers from all over the system come here to drink and play games, bet on sports, and just relax from the rigors of living on starships. On the upper floors of the casino, a number of backroom deals have occured or are in progress between politicians that determine the fate of the entire Delvi Star System.
Shopping Center
The Chalco World Shopping Center is a massive collection of stores selling items from various locations, from the farthest reaches of the galaxy, to the local star system. The shopping center is most well known for selling authentic products made from the world the Regolith is attached to. Items made on the planet Collena are rare and sometimes impossible to find elsewhere in the star system, at least for a good price.
Space Elevator
The space Elevator is the cheapest and most efficient way to get to and from the surface of Collena. It is also a 20 hour ride to move 30,000km. There are about twenty elevator cars the size of large buildings. Each of these can accomodate sleeping areas for fifty thousand people and has its own Restaurant and Lounge where people can relax on their long ride to the surface or back out into space.
Spaceport
The Spaceport allows the simultaneous docking of over a thousand starships from the size of tiny fighters to massive kilometer sized carriers. Most ships are autopiloted to a nearby shipyard and parked in orbit during the stay, as the fees for staying docked overnight are rather high. For an even higher fee, one can access a private dock out of view of the thousands of other people that use the Waystation on a daily basis.
Oooh, a space based establishment. This seems super interesting so far! I like the detail that the elevator has the restaurant and lounge due to how long the trip takes for it. You already have staff mentioned in your to-do, what about maybe a small bit of cuisine that's unique? Overall seems like a good start!
Thanks for giving my article a read. I realized my word count was low, so I added in a section describing five foods from restaurants around the Regolith. Two of the pictures were made just for this article. Thanks for the idea!
Not a problem at all~ The foods look really neat as well. Interesting pictures. c :
