Alpha Centauri Station
Alpha Centauri Station is a citadel-class starbase in orbit of Alpha Centauri A. Constructed in 2201 CE, it was the first Human facility constructed outside of the Sol System. The Alpha Centauri Starbase is one of the largest shipbuilding facilities in the UNE, with hundreds of smaller facilities, eight battleship-size yards, and a titan-size drydock. While the headquarters of many shipbuilding companies is on Horizon, they all maintain large offices onboard the station to oversee starship construction.
In addition to shipbuilding, Alpha Centauri Station is a logistics depot for exports from Horizon. Alloys, electronics, consumer products, and anything else not consumed by Horizon or the station's shipyards is sent out-system, usually toward Sol. In return, minerals and rare materials like yurantic crystals and lythuric gas are imported to the system for use in industry.
