MarsGuard Jules Verne and Herbert Wells Stations Class History Jules Verne and Herbert Wells Stations were orignally built in synchronous orbit to the poles of Mars to allow scientists to study the poles firsthand, and be able to take shuttles and science equipment down to them should the need arise. The stations were originally standard EA Polaris type stations, and have been refit and upgraded through the years to the current Gamma model. After Mars Independance, both stations' defensive responsibilities were turned over to MarsGuard, though the stations remained in nominal EA ownership. The weapons upkeep is provided by EA technicians, meaning the stations retain their interceptors with e-web. The hangars have been modified to allow for a mix of MarsGuard craft to be carried aboard. A total of one squadron of light figthers, two SWACS, two Enforcers, two Interceptors and two shuttles make up each station's flight wing.
