Astraeus Climbing Wall

USS Astraeus NCC-70652 - Arboretum

During her 2395 refit, a redundant turbolift shaft which ran from the top of the saucer to the bottom of the stardrive section was decommissioned, but left intact for structural support purposes. Several years later, the shaft was reconstructed into a massive, four sided climbing wall. Its full length is nearly eighty meters of climbing space, slightly sloped from the bottom up to the top to account for the turbolift shaft's previous path.

The climbing wall is equipped with several entrances and exits on different decks for those who wish for longer or shorter climbs, automatic gravity fields to catch falling climbers, along with more traditional rope-and-harness backups which are required according to shipboard regulations. Civilian event organizers hold training sessions and regular events here.
