The Weights and Measures is a Superiority trade vessel.
Appearance
The Weights and Measures is a massive starship, bigger than the battleships stationed near Detritus. The ship has multiple ports along the sides for launching starfighters. It has knobs that look like gun emplacements, [1] which leads Spensa Nightshade to suspect that it is in fact a military troop transport.
History
The Weights and Measures functions as a transport ship that carries pilots of the Delver Resistance Program from the docks at Starsight to the delver maze lightyears away.[1]. It is later repurposed into a battleship to assault Detritus as part of Winzik's coup.[Falta cita]
Functions
The Weights and Measures has an engine room that contains a cytonic hyperdrive, a command room, ballrooms suitable for hosting parties[2], restrooms, docks for starfighters, and rooms for passengers to sit while undergoing hyperjumps. It also has its own artificial gravity that engages as soon as a ship enters one of its ports, as well as invisible shields that hold in atmosphere but let fighters through.[1] These bays have room for several hundred fighters.[3]
The ship has a full complement of guards in multiple species, including diones and varvax.[1] These guards make up a portion of the 50-60 crew members responsible for all the ship's functions.[4] Security on the Weights and Measures is tight: it is equipped with a communications shield that prevents unauthorized external communications,[4] and passengers without sufficient security access must be accompanied by a security drone.[5]
