Talk:Deep Space Station S-8

This article currently lists Deep Space Station S-8 as, however the novel does not state that. The description in chapter one of the book is as follows:
 * "Seen from head on, it resembled any number of other deep space stations scattered throughout the quadrant. Holding a fixed position in space, as opposed to orbiting any star or planet, it rotated on a vertical axis. A habitation cone at the “top” of the station held most of the living and leisure facilities. The cone rested above the core of the station: a large saucer that consisted primarily of storage and engineering compartments holding most everything visiting ships might need for repairs or refueling. Three tubular arms radiated from the core, with docking facilities and smaller habitation cones at the end of each arm. A fully equipped shuttlebay was located at the bottom of the station, beneath the central saucer."

Now that could broadly refer to a station, but there are some things that sound different. Aside from the different letter designation, S-8's arms seem to radiate from the saucer directly, not the "box" below the saucer as seen on the Deep Space Station K-7 model, among other things. I don't think the description is clear enough to specify, and until we get that clarity, I'm not sure we should be listing the class when the book doesn't directly say what it is. --TimPendragon (talk) 17:25, January 19, 2020 (UTC)
