The Aviary is a rotating-wheel space habitat in equatorial geosynchronous orbit over Chehon City. Considered a township of Chehon, the station is legislated by a locally-elected station council, but is administered by a Commander appointed by the Chehon Port Authority.

The primary industry of The Aviary is transportation of goods between Chehon and visiting starships, with port services taking second place. However, the station is better known for its variety of entertainment venues, which dominate the full-gravity sections of the station's habitation ring.

Construction

The station is a large mixed-purpose orbital habitat with two contra-rotating, nested habitat rings; the outer ring is upscale and middle-class commercial space and luxury residences maintained at full Curuoskar gravity, while the inner ring is primarily dedicated to budget retail spaces and a mix of budget and middle-class residences with a gravity level of about 75% of standard gravity. Each ring is about 1/2 mile (800 meters) wide, with the outer ring nearly 2 miles (3200 meters) in diameter. The hub of the rings is a good-sized passenger teleport terminal linked to the planetary grid.

The habitation rings are at one end of a long central boom, the length of which is primarily dedicated to docking space. At the far end of the boom from the hab rings is the large cargo teleportation array, the shuttlebay, and the station's reactors.
