The '''Galactic Museum''' space station opened its doors on [[Year 14]] Day 100. Originally the Galactic Museum was housed in a Shipyard IV station which was completed on [[Year 13]] Day 223. However, it became clear day by day that the space available was still not enough to host all technological samples collected. Just with the vehicles and the smaller fighters, the bays were soon filled. A new, unique space station was then planned: its construction was completed on Year 14 Day 15. After moving all entities, reorganising the staff, and devising new advanced security measures for the new exhibition, the Galactic Museum was eventually inaugurated with a Grand Opening ceremony on Day 121.<br>

The objective of the Galactic Museum of Technology in collecting artifacts is to create, maintain, and protect a body of material representing the history and cultural life of the galaxy's technological development for purposes of preservation, study, and exhibitions through displays and other educational programs.
Revolving like a dancer in the dark space of Tyrius system, the Galactic Museum is currently said to be one of the most imposing and impressive known stations in space. Built according to a modular architectural concept, its size has slowly grown with each new acquisition. The station has a large octagonal dish at the bottom with a smaller one on top. A central tower connects the two and has four docking bays coming off of it near the top.
 
  
On top, the smaller octagonal dish houses the administrative offices and the apartments for the staff members of the Museum. Three of the four, finger like, docking bays act as permanent homes to the individual classes of ships that the museum has on display, while the last acts as the entrance and parking for visitors. The central tower houses the visitor amenities including a hotel, bar, gifts, lifts and various other shops and hangouts. While most sentients spend their time in the ship exhibits, others make their way down to the large octagonal dish at the bottom. Here, guests will get to see exhibits showing the vehicles of the galaxy along with droids and the galaxy's rarest items. Many of the museum's exhibits are also very interactive, which serve to keep the interest of those visiting them.
+
Given the nature and size of the collections, a customised station has been chosen as adequate premises. The museum is open to all and well-planned work shifts ensure that the museum has no closing times. Of course, due to extraordinary maintenance or unplanned events, access to the museum could be revoked: in this case visitors will be notified publicly.
  
The administrators have gone to great lengths to ensure guests feel included. Great care has been taken to place holograms of museum personnel next to most exhibits, talking about the finer details of the display item. You will also see the same people in these holograms guiding tours. There are also many hologames set up designed to give the user the feeling of piloting a fighter of their choice through several different scenarios or how it feels to pilot a pod racer in the big race. Many of the larger ships are open to the public to fully explore and give them an understanding of how it felt to live and work in the confines of these massive ships. While guided tours are offered, the museum staff does not discourage from one wandering off on their own and seeing everything the museum has to offer.

The Galactic Museum of Technology (abbreviated in 'GM' or 'GMoT') is a permanent exhibition on the develpment of the main sectors of technological knowledge. At present its Collection encompasses three sectors: ships, vehicles, and droids. Future plans are aimed at housing items and weapons, too.

The objective of the Galactic Museum of Technology in collecting artifacts is to create, maintain, and protect a body of material representing the history and cultural life of the galaxy's technological development for purposes of preservation, study, and exhibitions through displays and other educational programs.

Given the nature and size of the collections, a customised station has been chosen as adequate premises. The museum is open to all and well-planned work shifts ensure that the museum has no closing times. Of course, due to extraordinary maintenance or unplanned events, access to the museum could be revoked: in this case visitors will be notified publicly.

The museum guarantees appropriate standards to ensure the health, safety, and accessibility of its visitors and personnel. Particular regard is given to access by sentient beings with special needs.

Opening Times

Open daily from 00:00 to 24:00, free entrance

Getting Here

The space station is located in:
Sector: Savareen
System: Tyrius (276, -245)
System Position: (5, 7)

By personal ship

If you are planning to come visit us with your personal ship, we suggest you set your navcomputer for coordinates (275, -245) and, once there, do a microjump by setting the hyper coordinates to (276, -245). Once in the system, sublight heading at 45° to (5, 7). Docking inside the Museum is not allowed, but our Security Staff will take care of your ship at the entrance.

By Star Tours Inc.

You can get to Rodia Starport from any open starport in the galactic network. The Museum is currently linked to 110 destinations in the galaxy. Once arrived at the Rodia Starport, a shuttle service will be provided to you upon request.
