Mining Complex Landing Pad
ZA685 Launch Pad

Pad Three, Issigri

Pad Three, also referred to as 'Pad 3', is the primary outdoor spacecraft landing zone within the Issigri mining complex. This rugged, reinforced expanse—distinct from the indoor mining office—serves as the covert operational hub for pirate activities, including the landing of the Beta Buccaneer under Caven's orders. The pad is characterized by its scarred surface, missile-armed guards, swirling dust, and industrial hum, all of which mask the criminal operations taking place. Service gantries and floodlights pierce the asteroid haze, facilitating secure arrivals and departures amid the conspiracy's tight coordination with the nearby mining office.
