Denosha Station

 

Denosha Station was at the far end of the high density zone. That meant that it still had the full range of docks and amenities of a core station. Shipping was both high and low – most of the goods were on their way out of the zone, with little directed to or suitable for Denosha itself. General traffic was relatively high, as it marked the farthest point you could reach without a higher rated jump vessel. It was also a great spot to watch the larger deep space vessels get ready for their journeys.

 

Despite being relatively luxurious compared to the Deep Stations, it was still considered Frontier for a lot of softer people. That probably boiled down to the food. Most of the markets didn’t bother with RealSense protein and nutrients, preferring to serve the bulk paste with the full range of dried spices and herbs. RS packs were still available, but at a premium – there just wasn’t a large enough demand to warrant a full cargo run, or the expense of a setting up a GrowStudio. Besides, proper food would make it like every other station, and take away the ‘frontier’ uniqueness of Denosha.


People who lived here were work oriented, not that other places weren’t but, there was little else to do here once the initial thrill had worn off. Most shifts were done quickly and quietly, drama on the station was fairly low, outside of the tourists. News of anything that happened was disseminated fairly rapidly via VidPads and rarely discussed. Crews were often ‘overseen’ by visitors, who didn’t want politics and small talk interrupting their vacation.
