== Location and Layout ==
Starsight is located in deep space, some forty-odd light years from [[Detritus]], in the C4 region of the Superiority. The whole station is a vast, flat disc many kilometres long, larger than any Detritus city, with numerous skyscrapers and other buildings constructed on both its sides.{{book ref|sky2|9}}{{file ref|Starsight.jpg|Starsight view}}{{book ref|sky2|24}} A glowing blue bubble envelopes the entire structure, keeping the air and heat and, and allowing the inhabitants to live on the station's surface.{{book ref|sky2|9}} There's also a field suppressing [[cytonic]] abilities.{{book ref|sky2|10}} Apart from those two, there is also a protective shield, which can stop both physical objects and [[delver]]s from attacking.{{book ref|sky2|i|3}} It's possible that rather than being a separate entity, the protective shield is the same as the atmospheric shield.{{book ref|sky2|36}}
The city is divided into several -- at least seven -- sectors, and dotted with over a thousand berths for ships to dock in. Unlike the rest of the city, the docks are typically austere and comprised of large metal platforms, as well as necessary offices. Travelling across the sectors is a public transport network in the form of round platforms that float using [[acclivity ring]]s.{{book ref|sky2|10}}
Starsight is home to millions of people, belonging to uncountable different species.{{book ref|sky2|10}}{{book ref|sky2|42}} Of the five Superiority leader races, the [[dione]]s and the [[varvax]] can be found in abundance, while the other three are few and far between.{{book ref|sky2|12}} Other than that, lesser species like [[burl]] and [[solquis]] are also present in large numbers.{{book ref|sky2|10}} As a result, Starsight's docking crews are equipped with gear for numerous different kinds of beings, including steps, ramps, slides and more.{{book ref|sky2|9}}{{book ref|sky2|10}} There are also care centers dotted around the city, which appear to be equivalents of schools of kindergardens for children of various species.{{book ref|sky2|18}}
Apart from spacefaring vessels, Starsight also possesses many atmospheric vehicles for local transport. Nonetheless, most people seem to prefer moving under their own power, and there are many roads and paths to accomodate them.{{book ref|sky2|10}} The city is bustling with activity at all hours, even in the period typically considered to be "night".{{book ref|sky2|18}}
