well its better than snipes with the nexus - the causally mention it then no more

but to be informative - ceres is an asteroid - a large one between the orbits of mars and jupiter i believe

since this game revists the sol system its probally an asteriod base - something like the ntf bodicea or what ever its called

Its a science station.

Is it armed? I see it has little spikey thingies on the ottom, they could easily be turrets, or antennaes...

GTI Ceres?! would that be Galatic Terran Intelligence?
It looks very very cool and modern. reminds me of a Demois cruiser.

I don't think instalation is quite acurate as it's only slightly smaller than a corvette.

It looks like a demois in the design of the top bit looks like the side of a demois wrapped around and the colour is the same.

Zeroet - Oh, ok...

Bobboau - But isn't an installation anything that is stationary in space? A pharos could be an instiation... no?

Spacecrack is bad for you.

The color is not even remotely the same. It uses textures from the Orion and Arcadia models.

In FS terms, Installation ususally defines any stationary un-movable object (even under its own power - no engine subsystem) that is of military or civilian importance...

In my terms... It aint got no engine (hence its a brick) & its frequented by people... its an installation
