Eros Station

Eros Station appears in The Expanse.

Eros Station, a bustling asteroid hub in the Belt renamed from the original Eros, emerges as a pivotal location in The Expanse series, initially serving as a vibrant center for trade, vice, and protomolecule research before becoming ground zero for cataclysmic events. In Leviathan Wakes, it transforms from a seedy port into the epicenter of the protomolecule outbreak, where the hybrid organism consumes the station and its inhabitants, propelling the narrative toward interstellar conflict. Though absent in later books, its legacy endures as the birthplace of the protomolecule horrors that reshape humanity's fate across the solar system.
