Transcendence Station
Transcendence Station is a privately-held space station on the rim of the Tyrin Empire that supports the independent mining operations of the Tokara belt, rich in multiple ores of moderate value. There is a crew of approximately five-hundred, with a transient population of up to six-hundred more. There is a steady flow of mining transports in and out of the belt, as well as heavy ore carriers on routes to processing plants in other systems. It is on a lightly traveled jump corridor, so is also used as a refueling and resupply point for vessels in transit. Crime on the station is a noted problem, and there have been several investigations into the legal practices of the station management.
The Station was the last place visited by Sapphire Star while under command of Captain Cal Doric while on a commercial assignment for Mike and AJ. Several weeks later, Mike and AJ visited there with Shining Star while looking for clues to Sapphire Star's disappearance.
