Location / Orbital trade station
Meridian
A city between arrivals and departures.
Earth below. Business everywhere.
Meridian orbiting Earth
Station profile
A place to trade.
A place to live.
Meridian is an inhabited trade station orbiting Earth: a place of cargo movements, commercial traffic, and ordinary lives carried on between shifts. Its working docks feed a busy concourse, while residential lanes hold repair shops, small food counters, and homes occupied for years.
A trading corporation holds practical power here. Polished hospitality occupies the public-facing spaces; company control runs underneath. At The Apogee, the station presents its most comfortable face—an elegant lobby, a quiet restaurant, and private rooms looking out toward Earth.

Food counters, merchants, and passing crews fill a layered concourse of metal walkways and warm shopfronts.
Residential neighborhood
Apartments sit above small workshops and food counters. Narrow galleries, plants, and warm doorways make the station feel lived in.
Working docks
Cargo, dock crews, and control consoles line the industrial bays, with Earth visible beyond the station’s structure.
