Stargate v1.0 (TL 10) 
         
        This station was build as a stargate for 10,000-ton ships. The actual 
    capacity is 10% higher to take generators off-line for maintenance. Since 
    this is only sufficient for small colony worlds, the station doubles as a 
    trade post, medical center and repair facility. 
        For traffic control, the station has 80-mile thermographs, a 16-mile 
    MAD, 15-mile multiscanners and 3,600-mile radars. It has neither weapons 
    nor defensive systems. The durasteel might help against a botched docking, 
    but not against attacks. The engines give 0.001 G - more than many TL08 
    ships have. 
        The stargate uses TL10 tech [Dec. 93 errata sheet] with parts from 
    Space.
