Line 29: The '''''Hughes'''''-class [[space station]] was mentioned as a "massive mobile yard station", i.e. a space station built from smaller components or modules of no more than 100,000 tons each that could be carried on [[JumpShip]] [[hardpoint]]s like [[DropShip]]s (instead of having to be carried as cargo), to be joined together to form a much larger structure at the destination site.
