VIMANA

Type: Flotilla

Economic Class: Trade

Population: 6.7 Million

Climate: artificial

Gravity: 0.01 G

Vimana is the oldest and largest flotillas in the system. The sheer number of ships, many of which have paired up over the years to make a super ship or flying space station, create the illusion that the flotilla is one massive flying city. It calls to recollection the ancient Hindu stories of the Vimana, hence the name. The only operational gravity on the flotilla is produced artificially though centripetal motion in select areas.

Most of the flotilla operates under zero G. However, it is a known fact that the sheer mass Vimana has grown to in the last 50 years has produced a gravitational pull of 0.01G along the outermost hull, which is enough to viably grow micro-crops along the inside of the station hull. Vimana has become one of the largest trading ports in the system and is the main crossroad for materials into and out of the Exo.
