- 
-Berthing Compartment Gamma--A berthing compartment aboard Kendai Station. 
- 
-Blue Chamber--The drivesat relay housing Kemal, an AI. It was formerly known as Verge Relay 2. 
- 
-Darkhold--A space station in orbit around a large asteroid in the Cyra Belt. It's home to a variety of seedy entertainment venues, but is losing ground to [[starmech_collective|StarMech]]. Of late, it's been jamming the sensors of vessels that try and mine the Belt. StarMech offered to buy it for four billion Concord dollars. 
- 
-Defender-Class Heavy Monitor--The largest class of External monitor. Defender battle stations are exclusively military in nature, with complements of fighters, heavy weapons and durable armor. 
- 
-Defense Net--A complex system of remotely operated orbital defense stations protecting Galvin. They are armed with a variety of weapons, including nuclear missiles, infrared lasers and particle cannons. 
- 
-Drivesats 1-5--A series of drivesats aboard the Kendai Relay. They were infected by the Geneva Virus. Drivesat 1 delivered the first messages from the [[the_verge|Verge]],​ including Silver Bell's distress call. 
- 
-Far-Out Drones--A far-flung network of [[galactic_concord|Concord]] recon drones positioned in the Hammer'​s Star system.

-Goliath--A gas mining station in Sperous'​ upper atmosphere. It relies on induction engines and gas bags to keep aloft. Its crew is relatively small, and has a high turnover rate. 
- 
-Guardian-Class Light Monitor--The lightest class of External monitor. These small space stations are lightly-armed,​ and are usually used as centers of scientific research or commerce. 
- 
-Hermit--An automated science facility owned by the Regency. It is located at Avob, and monitors Redcrown'​s weather patterns and electromagnetic field. (Orbital station or land-bound base? I don't think that the SGA mentions which.) 
- 
-Highport--A seedy space station in high polar orbit around Penates. Owned by the Free Trade Guild, it was originally an orbital defense station. 
- 
-Junior--An instrument package attached to the Hermit scientific facility. It monitors Redcrown'​s rings. 
- 
-Kendai Relay Station--A large, spherical drivesat station in the same orbit as the planet Gobi in the Kendai system. It was destroyed during the [[second_galactic_war|Second Galactic War]], but was reconstructed afterwards. [[voidcorp|VoidCorp]] attempted to sabotage it. (FC, BS)  
- 
-Melas Station--A Concord space station and listening post in Bluefall orbit. 
- 
-Mindara Station--A space station orbiting Mindara. It was the site of an uprising during the Lison rebellion, and is rumored to be haunted. The klicks have set up a base there, and are using the ghost stories to scare off visitors. 
- 
-Monitor--A generic term for a space station lacking a stardrive and system engines. 
- 
-Nectaris Orbital Station--In orbit around Bluefall, Nectaris is the clearinghouse for anyone entering the Aegis system. It's also home to CCC offices and the system'​s drivesat. 
- 
-Nova Station--A large space station in orbit around Atlas. It's home to Tendril'​s drivesat communications array, as well as maintainance facilities. An unknown, hostile xenoform killed several ambassadors there in 2500. 
- 
-Omega Station--Only fifteen (20?) percent complete as of 2501, Omega Station is the Concord'​s base in Corrivale. It orbits Nike, a moon of the gas giant Lecterion. In addition to its military facilities, it's rumored to be home to more classified operations as well. 
- 
-Orbital Blast-Mining Facility 278N--A VoidCorp drill-beam platform in orbit around Hux. 
- 
-Outpost T-38--A small mining outpost located near Darkhold in Tendril'​s Cyra Belt. Maria Williamson conducts meetings with Nariac representatives there. 
- 
-Platon Station--A space station under construction by the Concord. It was supposed to orbit Platon, but has been moved to an undisclosed location. 
- 
-Protector-Class Monitor--An External monitor of medium strength. They are well armed and armored, and are almost always used for military purposes. 
- 
-Solar X Shipyards--A series of orbital shipyards orbiting Alaundril. They are owned by Solar X, and manufacture small spacecraft. 
- 
-Starstation Aurora (Aurora Station?​)--An [[insight|Insight]]-owned installation in orbit around Walin III. It extracts water vapor from the planet'​s upper atmosphere, and was recently attacked by VoidCorp. (pp 28, 36-39, CV) 
- 
-Thorn 1--The largest of the assembly lines in Thorn Shipyards, capable of manufacturing vessels of cruiser class. 
- 
-Thorn 3--The smallest assembly line in Thorn, it manufactures small craft. 
- 
-Thorn 2--This Thorn assembly line manufactures bulk freighters and other medium vessels. 
- 
-Thorn Shipyards--Located in the Focault Belt, these shipyards have only opened recently. They are divided into four main sections, including three assembly lines and an office complex. 
- 
-Vallis Station--Originally built by the [[borealis_republic|Borealins]] to house the system'​s drive relay, Vallis Station now plays host to a branch of the CCC and a repair yard. Newcomers to Hammer'​s Star are directed here. The station itself orbits Spes. 
- 
-VCT SO850265 (Watcher) A VoidCorp space station in orbit around Hydrocus. 
- 
-Verge Relays 5-3, 1--The drivesat relays spanning the 270 light-year distance from Tendril to Kendai.
