Astrophotography by Heavy Johnson

Located on the opposite side of the Lagoon Nebula from the earlier outpost of Amundsen Terminal, this asteroid base is run by the democratically controlled Lagoon Research Associates. The crew and staff of 2500 are engaged in scientific research of the water-based life of the gas giant which the base orbits. The asteroid appears to have been boosted out of the main asteroid belt for better observation conditions. The base is itself named after Sir David Frederick Attenborough, a decorated and influential naturalist of the 20th century. The base offers all services except ship outfitting and a shipyard.
