03The Central Node

A hub where Starships connect like petals around a core

At the heart of Oakheart sits the node — a multi-port orbital anchor. Ships arrive, align to its motion, and lock into place. What was a lone vessel becomes one petal of a flower slowly opening in the dark.

NODE

Five ports. Corridors of light and pressure radiating outward. Dock, connect, expand — the geometry is designed to keep growing.

Pressurized corridors

Soft-walled passages thread from the hub into every docked ship, so you can float the length of the station without ever touching a suit.

Power conduits

A shared spine of power and data routes energy from solar wings to wherever the crew needs it, balancing load across the whole bloom.

Modular expansion

Empty ports wait patiently. Add a ship, a lab, or a whole new wing — the node just grows another petal and keeps its balance.
