HNS “Starshot Station” Construction Completed

5th June 2025

Terrague Space Launch Centre, Terrague Island, HAT: Several years in the making, a long-awaited international space station has now been completed at the Terrague Space Launch Centre, located on Terrague Island, in the Hubdovan Archipelago Territories. This new station will be called the Starshot Station. The Hubdovan Space Agency (HSA) is working in coordination with the government of The Fleet of Oceans to haul the main central component into orbit using their “Bulk Hauler” because it is too heavy to launch with conventional rockets. As the Hubdovan Navy's largest and most powerful supercarrier, the HNS Arcadia will carry the component to New Britannia, the Fleet of Ocean's capital, where the "Bulk Hauler" is located. Aside from this, the HSA will launch four independent modules to dock with the central piece. Each module will fulfil a different function aboard the station. The four modules are listed and detailed below:

The Alpheus Module: The Alpheus Module will be a module that faces the surface of Telrova and will be used to view the planet along with taking different scientific readings such as taking the temperature and composition of the atmosphere along with many other things.

The Nerissä Module: The Nerissä Module is kind of like a lounge/resting quarters of the station for the astronauts currently stationed there. It can also be used for diplomatic summits that cannot be held on the surface if needed. It is mainly where the astronauts will eat, sleep, and hang out whenever they are on break.

The Argon Module: This module will be used for chemical/biological testing on how different chemicals and biological substances react when subject to zero-gravity environments.

The Gleykneid Module: The Gleykneid Module will be a high-powered telescope that points out into the cosmos to discover new stars and other celestial bodies. The advantage of this telescope versus normal telescopes on the surface is that there is little atmospheric obstruction to have to see through. This results in a clearer picture and a further distance of viewing.

In all, the station will have eight ports available for new modules (including the four Hubdovan modules). Hubdova is proud to be the one to fund and launch the first space station into orbit that will be used in cooperation with other international nations. We extend our thanks to The Fleet of Oceans for offering to launch the largest part of the station into orbit, the part that the HSA does not have the full capability of doing.

Expo2025

Hubdovan Pavilion, Locotima: The first couple days at the Expo2025 being held in Locotima have been a success. Many people from different nations across the world came to check out the Hubdovan Pavilion, located in the Yellow Zone. Prime Minister Kristofer Heikkinen and Minister for International Affairs Kauko Saarinen have both been spotted checking out Hockeyyekcoh’s pavilion and chatting with Queen Margaret at the Locotimian Pavilion.
