Description[edit]
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 hardpoints like DropShips (instead of having to be carried as cargo), to be joined together to form a much larger structure at the destination site. It is implied from the context that the Hughes class of yard stations was among the largest space stations ever constructed during the Star League era.[1] No details are mentioned.
Wolf's Dragoons' Hephaestus Station was believed by some to have been a heavily modified Hughes-class station.[1]
As of ca. 3095, Clan Goliath Scorpion was mentioned to maintain one "Hephaestos-type Hughes-class station, a modernized type of the station employed by Wolf's Dragoons," which served within their Empire as a mobile and critical source of endo-steel and ClanTech after their Abjuration.[2] It implicitly also seems to confirm that the Dragoons' station was indeed also based on a Hughes, and further implies that there is a Hephaestos subtype or variant of the Hughes used for manufacturing purposes.
