So... The Dark Wheel Station?

[Trotsky2112]

I was just thinking...
The screenshot in the codex shows an red star and a really close moon with orbis station.
Or does it?
It could be that rather than being close to a normal sized star, the dark wheel station may be a reasonable distance from a supergiant or hypergiant.
Any thoughts?

A fair thought, but what you're essentially saying therefore is "the station could be in orbit around a red star of literally any size", which isn't exactly a revelation that's useful or interesting.

Also, I would assume that if, in-universe, the Dark Wheel exists and is as powerful as suggested, they would be able and indeed very likely to move their station around frequently. So there's no reason to think the image in the codex corresponds to where the station is at any given time.
