Dockyards of Ganymede

Massive facilities for constructing and repairing spaceships, with docks extending into space. Cranes and workers bustle around half-built vessels in zero-g sections.

The Dockyards of Ganymede first appear in Iron Gold as the Solar Republic’s premier orbital shipyard, a sprawling complex of zero-g cranes and half-built warships that symbolizes the new order’s industrial might. Across the series the facility evolves from a mere construction hub into a strategic flashpoint whose capture or sabotage can decide the fate of entire fleets. Its vast slips become both the cradle of the Republic’s navy and the target of Lysander’s daring infiltration, underscoring how control of Ganymede’s docks equates to control of the stars.
