Stats
- they orbit there star at approximately 743 to 768 million km
- there are C-Type asteroids mixed in with the majority of S-type asteroids. These asteroids are dark, low reflective, with brittle bodies made of fine opaque material and hydrated (water-rich) minerals
- there are M-Type asteroids mixed in with the majority of S-type asteroids. These asteroids have nickel/iron compositions and other rare types of metals. Any of these may have useable amounts of ice on the surface or within them
- most of these asteroids are S-Type asteroids and have a stony, iron composition
- see Asteroid Data for more information

Mining Platform
The mining platform in use here is actually the second one. The first one was identical to that still in use within the inner asteroid field. It was taken out of service almost 50 years ago as it was considered to be too slow and time consumeing for use. It is now floating lifeless next to the inner asteroid field. They use it for spare parts.
The current platform in use is actually 2 independent facilities. Each is about half the size of the old station taken out of service. This one does not seperate into smaller pieces when it's time to be moved.
