You order the construction of a Mining Corvette as the first ship to ever be constructed in your naval docks, after shipping over the needed resources and watching as the dock programs stir the structure to life you order the construction of a drone bay in the solar complex. Turning your attention from those more trivial constructions you set the majority of your SCDs to a far more important task, the creation of one of your orbital railgun platforms, they set to work quickly and within a handful of hours the weapon that will make up the center of the structure begins to take shape. Nearly a fourth a mile in length, and capable of firing specialized house sized shells made for the sole purpose of destroying ground based targets effectively and as accurately as possible, quite content with yourself you turn yourself to your research.
Your advanced electronics fabrication goes smoothly, and ends quickly with a rather more resounding result then you had hoped, during the process of finding the fabrication method for adv. electronics you uncover ways to refine simple ores into advanced and vice-verse. Elsewhere your attempts at disassembling and recreating the blueprint for an HMK-47 go slowly as you are forced to take extra precautions due to the weapons highly volatile nature though you succeed you fear that you'll need far more advanced facilities to construct this weapon. Your third and final research into improving your current passive sensors hits a wall yet again, you manage to make some progress but you feel luck or whatever cosmic power governs breakthroughs isn't quite on your side at this moment.
Frustrated with your failures with improved sensors you turn your focus to coming your database for any mentions of FTL travel and quickly find several very useful bits of information. You find that you easily understand FTL as sub-space travel and ways to implement as given evidence by the transfer stations you crafted, it seems sub-space travel is a method that seemingly compresses space itself (or thats what the theories on your database say) meaning distances of several hundred light years might be only a three or four in sup-space. Alongside that sub-space also allows for travel at such speed as to be faster than light, which means a trip that might take several hundred years in real space might take a few days in sub-space. You believe that with much better facilities you could create a device that would allow your ships to travel through sub-space, but of course you are far from that currently ...
A message pulls you from your revelry and you turn your sights from the databases to your sensors just in time to watch your mining corvette get pushed free from the docks and drift slowly out into space. Suddenly power kicks on throughout the vessel and its mainframe connects to you, a deep satisfaction fills you as you think of how valuable this could prove to be ...
Designation: Aegis or Aegis Station 22
Condition: Perfect
Shell: Derelict Defense Network Station 22
Shell Internal Space: Roughly 10% of your Shell is empty and can be used to store further facilities.
Station Hull Status
Central Spike Hull: Good Condition, mild damage and a handful of hull breaches but not to much.
First Ring's Hull: Poor Condition, around a third of the ring has been torn to shreds or fallen away at some point, a large amount of maintenance and repairs will need to be done. Not to mention manufacturing new segments to replace the lost segments in the ring.
Second Ring's Hull: Average Condition, the ring is mostly intact and has been restored to optimal condition though large sections are definitely missing.
Third Ring's Hull: Average Condition, only one or two sections of the ring are gone and for the most part the damage to this is mostly superficial with a handful of hull breaches.
