== Name == | |||
The science station was originally named after the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parkes_Observatory Parkes Observatory] on Earth. | |||
Marths hated the original name of the station, so instead named it after a vintage Terran song "The House of the Rising Sun" that an old crewmate of his from many years earlier used to sing. | |||
== Base of Operations for Marths == | |||
After it was acquired by Marths, the station was virtually untouched from its original condition. The [[SS Wildfire]] and the [[SS Rampart]] were able to dock there. | |||
The station was used for storing useful loot, supplies, and ship spare parts. It was more like a hidden warehouse than a luxurious hidden lair. Nonetheless, it was the base of operations – well hidden by a large nearby Mutura class nebula, and assisted by localised thick tetryon fields. | |||
