MarsGuard Georges Melies Station Class History Georges Melies Station was built by the EA for defense of Mars. It orbits in synchronous orbit over the Mars capital of Eden City. It is a standard Orion class delta model starbase, whose hangars have been modified by MarsGuard for their use. As with the other stations in Mars orbit, the weapons grid is maintained by EA technicians, so the interceptors and e-webs remain. The station's space wing consists of one squadron of medium figthers, two squadrons of light fighters, three Prosecutors, three Interceptors, two Enforcers, two SWACS, and four shuttles. The station, as with all stations in Mars orbit, do not rotate fast enough to generate an Earth standard simulated gravity, but rather a gravity somewhere between Mars and Earth, so as to allow Mars inhabitants and those used to Earth gravity an ease of movement on the station. All the stations in Mars orbit received names of famous people of imaginative literature and artistry. Georges Melies Station is named after the man who created what is considered the first science fiction movie "Le Voyage dans la Lune" in 1902 (A Voyage to the Moon). People may not know his name, but they definately know the movie, as parts of it have been used in various commercials, shows, etc. since it was created. Georges Melies Station
