The Academy

The Academy

The campus is vast and scenic, not letting on to the expansive facility below ground that houses classrooms, drill floors, and firing ranges. On the surface white buildings form a small complex with rolling greens, surrounded by forests and mountains

Originally an officers school for the United Space Fleet, it has expanded its student base so as to take in as many bright and brilliant minds as possible

100 officer candidates are selected each year

Recruiters find potential students, as well as monitor test scores from the Summit’s database

Other disciplines include medicine, mechanics, engineering, architecture, biology, and chemistry

All students attend The Academy on full ride scholarships, as talent and skill are valued more than money

The Academy

Historical Library

Created from donations given by the first few generations of human settlers a collection of masterworks saved from earth were brought here. Mass reprints and digital copies help saved the written word of earth-that-was for generations to come. While digital copies of books are available in most of the Aegean system, hard-copies are difficult to find and find their home here to preserve them.

Ilisos River Running alongside the Academy and out into the

wilds, the Ilisos River is large and placid, growing into a large lake once it reaches further back into the mountains. The river is frequented by swimmers and various boats. Although wide, the river is not especially deep. 

The Wilds Athens boasts similar ecology

to the long ago home world of earth and these mountains are filled with wildlife. There are many walking trails and mountain paths too. These grounds are popular for camping, fishing, hunting, and other recreational activities. Several large cabins dot the hillsides as the well-off make their seasonal homes in the mountains where they aren't likely to be disturbed.

Attica Attica is Athen’s larger moon and is known for its

constantly advancing equipment and high tech devices. It is home to some of the biggest technology corporations in the system and many start up projects. Even with a bustling manufacturing district, it remains true to Athen’s devotion to preserving their environment and safe work conditions.

Piraeus

Athen’s smaller moon, Piraeus is a mostly residential area and is committed to keeping their cities green. Less mountainous than its counterparts, it has several large rivers that wind around the moon.
