AURORA PRIME

Aurora Prime is framed as a city-scale orbital machine.
The public site now presents Aurora Prime as a layered habitat, not a single station render. The visible program spine organizes the complex into habitable rings, a central command and logistics core, hospital and emergency systems, ships and docking, agriculture, resource recovery, commerce, education, hospitality, and future expansion corridors.
Two-ring habitat logic
Public-facing structure for residential, civic, hospitality, and industrial zones without exposing private CAD or mechanism details.
Service spine
Docking, cargo, maintenance, power distribution, water, waste, and emergency movement remain organized as connected operating layers.
Human-centered decks
Hospital, restaurants, education, tourism, living quarters, and public markets make the station feel like civilization rather than a sterile platform.
Expansion doctrine
Future growth is kept modular: new rings, attached laboratories, industrial pods, visitor systems, and shipyard functions can be staged over time.
One station. Many living systems.
Each card opens a local public page. The site uses real cinematic card assets, not placeholder SVG line art. Heavy private CAD, mechanisms, specifications, and book-level source material remain offline/internal. The hero visual has been upgraded to a premium rendered banner to better match the rest of the Space Systems presentation layer.
