Solarium Section

A compact, semi-enclosed observation area at the edge of the command hub, its transparent reinforced panels angled to offer a sweeping view of the probe’s vulnerable outer corridors.

The air carries a faint metallic tang from the ventilation cycling stale oxygen past failing filters. Soft overhead panels diffuse emergency red lighting, casting deep shadows where Ranjit’s hands work frantically over diagnostic overlays, relaying Vishinsky’s rapid-fire orders to isolate and seal each adjoining module.
