Mirage

Mirage is an asteroid in the Waypoint 24 system. It served as a rescue station for ships traveling to other systems in the Galactic Core. It was abandoned after hyperspace travel advanced to the level where waypoint systems were no longer needed, until it eventually was repaired and used as a base of operations by a group of nerds.

Its name comes from the cloud of stellar dust that Mirage orbits in. The dust cloud obscures Mirage from sensors, so that it can only be seen by ships flying into the dust cloud itself.
