This page is a Work in Progress as much of the lore/Development for the game is yet to be established.

The Comms Station (short for Communications Station) is the secondary scientific station on the Bridge. Manned by a Comms Officer, it is used to perform communications duties between the ship and other communication sources, such as planets, space stations and the operator's headquarters. It is the ship's primary communications conduit to the outside world.
