- | To the eye, Null is a goldfish bowl like sphere containing layers of atmosphere and branching structures of habitat. Branching beyond this carefully managed atmosphere are four enormous towers either side dwarfing the spheres forming two masts in total with branching cooling panels and docking arrays. Wrapped around this large blocky structure is a ring of orbital defense satellites. Each satellite is loaded with a wirelessly powered 10 gigawatt laser system able to strike targets outside of Null or in a reduced power-mode to strike its own surface to prevent boarding. Null itself also contains a 30 gigawatt laser system, able to fire once every four seconds every four seconds for up to 6 concentrated hours before needing to cool for 24 hours. | + | Null serves as a [[transportation/ |

- | The surface of Null up close has moon like craters - with a heavy metallic exterior designed to endure strikes from large objects. Covering Null is a layer of thick regolith metallic dust which cements over its hull akin to concrete - formed from the waste products of its interior mining operations to further protect its major structures. | + | |

- | Structures similar to Null were designed to fall into a planet as an offensive measure. To counter this, Null features an internal gyroscope system which holds its major structures together - cancelling subtle shockwaves and vibrations which would otherwise destroy it. The centrifugal gyroscope is designed to slow as Null grows closer to a planet - and Null itself to burn up in an atmosphere to prevent its use as a potential weapon against Albion. | + | |

- | Null's structure features a rayshield to protect its central structures from harsh radiation, chanelling the radiation belts around Albion into usable electrisity. This essentially turns Albion' | + | |

- | //For political reasons, the orbital object Null is also classified as a defence outpost for Aleph as a relic of the old war and the establishment of Albion — and so all of Aleph’s independence. Originally named the Orbital Fortress Null, it was able to accelerate a wide variety of payloads to enormous speed and precision, cross-calculating the gravitational patterning of the entire solar system itself with enormous precision — able to even strike objects in the upper atmospheres and surfaces of other worlds within a matter of hours or days, making extended ground occupation close to impossible while ensuring the payload is sufficiently decelerated to not cause massive collateral damage. It is still capable of these functions though now is primarily used for civilian purposes and serves as a living icon of Albion' | + | |
