Charon Station

__NOTOC__
Charon Station is a station in the Aldhibain system. It is initially controlled by the Republic, but it becomes part of the Free Worlds when they declare independence.
== Description ==
Charon Station provides hyperspace fuel for much of the southern galactic rim. It is a tiny, cramped, and aging station, with twice as many workers here as it was originally designed for.
Centuries ago, before much of the Dirt Belt was settled, this was the first spot below Algorel where merchant caravan fleets from the Deep could stop over on their way to the worlds farther up the Rim.
The close quarters have fostered an extreme scrupulosity about personal space. It is unnerving to walk down a densely crowded hallway and fail to make eye contact with anyone.
== Spaceport ==
The refinery here operates in shifts, non-stop, so there are always people coming and going in the hallways and docking bays. The cafeteria is so crowded that many workers are just standing up against the walls eating off their trays instead of trying to find a place to sit.
Every few minutes, light flashes in through one of the windows from welders outside in space suits trying to keep the aging hull in perfect shape. Others drift around outside checking up on the solar panels and replacing burnt-out modules.
