Planned as a refueling station with laboratories and other services, the CSP has launched the various components for the space station into orbit.

A second ship, Orbiter 2, sent to rescue the first crew finds Orbiter 1 deserted and the spacecraft's log missing. Orbiter 2 is also attacked by a UFO and seriously injured.
