Cargo Cargo Bay

Spaceport Cargo Baggage Area

An industrial cargo unloading zone in the spaceport's underbelly, featuring low ceilings with flickering fluorescent lighting, grated metal floors, and chain-link security cages. The area serves as a critical inspection and unloading point for the SS Bernice and other vessels, characterized by hydraulic fluid puddles, neural disruptor residue, and the presence of inspectors Kalik and Orum. This space combines elements of the cargo hatch (entry point) and baggage zone (processing area) into a unified operational environment.
