This system has historical relevance to the carrier-owner. I was among those members of the shady Children of Raxxla, who went out on the traces of the Dynasty-Expedition and helped to find the derelict abandoned surface-bases in the Hawkings-Gap region als well als in the Scutum-Sagittarii Conflux.
To commemorate this successful mission, I dedicated my own carrier to this place.
May it be a safe haven for deep space explorers and tourist-visitors, who come to listen to the ancient recordings at the abandoned base. Furthermore the abandoned base can be used to collect random tech-items, similar to the famous "Davs Hope" abandoned base near the bubble. In system there is a Gas Giant with an icy ring that boasts two Tritium-Hotspots.
This place seems rather well hidden, tucked away deep in the middle of crater canyons. How on earth did they find this place? Observing the relay comms it quickly becomes apparant this base has been used as cargo transfer. The question is: what cargo? There is something we are not allowed to know. And somebody with lots of money wants to keep it that way. A second later I hear a strange sound coming from one of the containers. As I move closer, a thump every second quite high-pitched, almost sounds like a distress beacon. People left in a hurry? The last message looks strange: "Cargo is being deployed. A series of artefacts of some kind." Hmm... unknown artefacts ? ... (source)

In late 3302, Alessia Verdi, a commander associated with the enigmatic CMDR Salomé, set up an exploration community goal (Directive Two) on behalf of the Children of Raxxla. The goal was to retrieve and analyze as much survey data as possible from three specific regions. Those regions being the Formidine Rift, The Scutum-Sagittarii Conflux, and Hawking's Gap (Lin-Shu Hollow).
On analysis of the data, CoR Intel discovered the location of several navigational beacons in each region, that in turn provided the planetary location of several settlements. (Source)
These settlements turned out to be staging posts for a mysterious 'Dynasty Expedition' that had traversed the location three decades earlier and had set up bases there.
