Concord Station is set around Mars' Lagrange Point 1.

Bathed in the unfiltered light of the sun, it is an ideal location for scientific study, agriculture (hydroponics), and solar energy collection research.
This attracts researchers, agricultural corps, and members of The Radiant Dawn Order.

The station is a bustling city that balance knowledge, commerce, and faith. However, it hides corruption, crime and intrigue beneath its gleaming exterior.

Due to the lack of shade, the stations manually closes every 12 hours to simulate night. There are several nicknames for this event and system.


Physical Size & Population

  • Station Diameter: ~8 km across, structured as a multi-tiered toroidal habitat with various extensions and docking arms.
  • Population: ~500,000 permanent residents, with an additional 100,000–200,000 transient visitors, traders, and researchers at any given time.
  • Gravity: Microgravity dominates most of the station, but rotating sections provide artificial gravity for habitation and commercial areas (~0.5g).
  • Energy Supply: Powered by vast solar arrays, with additional energy storage and backup reactors for redundancy.

Why It Was Created

Concord Station was initially established as a joint Earth-Mars research outpost, leveraging its ideal solar exposure for astrophysics, botany, and materials science. During the War of Martian Independence, Mars staked its claim firmly.

  • Scientific Research: Zero-G biotech, radiation exposure studies, and plasma physics.
  • Agricultural Testing: Hydrosyne Systems and other agritech firms experiment with high-radiation crops, GMOs, and synthetic proteins.
  • Solar Harvesting: Energy companies use the station as a relay for orbital power collection and transmission to Mars.
  • Religious Pilgrimage: The Radiant Dawn Order considers the station a holy site, believing its proximity to the Sun enhances communion with Theo.
  • Trade & Logistics Hub: Its position makes it a crucial waystation for cargo between Mars, The Belt, and Earth.

Districts & Key Locations

  1. The Sunward Array – The uppermost levels of the station, covered in massive solar panels and radiation labs. Researchers in vacuum-rated suits conduct experiments in extreme solar conditions. Occasionally, accidents occur—some say not all are accidental.

  2. The Hanging Markets – A sprawling trade sector suspended in microgravity, where merchants float between neon-lit stalls selling everything from rare Martian minerals to illegal cyberware.

  3. The Veil – A luxurious, climate-controlled section with artificial sky domes and simulated gravity (0.5g). Home to corporate enclaves, embassies, and high-end residential districts. The wealthy live here, far removed from the chaos below.

  4. The Radiant Spire – A towering structure of golden lattice at the heart of the station, serving as a temple of The Radiant Dawn Order. Its central chamber is bathed in pure sunlight, where devout followers experience “The Illumination.”

  5. The Labyrinth – A chaotic, dimly lit undercity of neglected maintenance tunnels, old modules, and repurposed cargo bays. A haven for smugglers, cyber-riggers, and rogue AI networks.

  6. The Twilight Ring – A rotating section that provides 0.5g gravity and hosts bars, clubs, and entertainment venues. It's where traders, mercs, and researchers unwind—sometimes violently.

  7. The Shade Cycle Systems – The station’s artificial night cycle system, controlled by massive retractable panels. When they close, the entire station dims into a deep twilight. Some call it “The Eclipse,” others the "Steel Sky". Criminal activity spikes during these periods.
