The Federation Service Station hovered around a red giant that was over a billion kilometers wide.
It was a massive piece of metal structure that looked like 3 cylindrical rods, rounded around a bigger rod at the center.
There were metal antennas and whatnot coming out of the service station, and hundreds of ships flew in and out constantly.
Ning stared from the window while the captain made some communications with the person in charge of handling research vehicles.
"Is that… a sun?" Saphandra asked. She had never seen a red giant before.
"Your first time huh?" Ning asked. "It's the second time for me. That star will die in a relatively short time and burst open."
"Really? Won't these people die?" she asked.
"Oh, when I say relatively, I mean relative to how long it's been alive. The star bust have formed many billion years ago, and by comparison, it will die in a few million years."
