Arcology Six (N6)

Arcology Six (commonly known as the Vi Station) is a massive space station located at the L3 Lagrange point of Navareo V in the (link: page://iuFjaVxsj8fCUuzH text: Navareo) system. Originally designed as the colony ship NV Kvizùn, it now serves as the administrative centre of the Navareo Empire and houses over 500,000 permanent residents, making it the largest operational space station in known space.

History

Construction of the NV Kvizùn began in the late pre-hyperlight era as an ambitious project to transport 200,000 Navarean colonists to suitable exoplanets. The development of hyperlight travel technology during its construction led to a dramatic redesign, with the vessel's propulsion systems being removed in favour of expanded habitation and administrative facilities. The station was recommissioned as Arcology Six in -26 UT, though many of its original colony ship features were retained and repurposed.

Structure and facilities

The station maintains a modular design divided into distinct functional sectors. The residential section, comprising approximately 60% of the station's volume, features multi-level housing complexes integrated with communal spaces and agricultural zones. The administrative sector houses the Navarean Board of Directors and various governmental departments, while dedicated research facilities occupy the outer rings.

Notable features include:

• Deep Space Observatory equipped with advanced radio telescopes
• Comprehensive hydroponic farming system providing 82% of resident food requirements
• Industrial fabrication facilities
• State-of-the-art medical facilities
• Entertainment and cultural centres

Self-sufficiency systems

Arcology Six operates as a closed-system environment, employing advanced recycling and resource management technologies. The station's life support systems process approximately 2.3 million litres of water daily through multi-stage filtration and reclamation processes. Energy requirements are met through a combination of solar collection arrays and fusion generators, with surplus power being redirected to industrial operations.
