The Panama

Apart of the Antilles roaming fleet, the Panama is the flagship of the nomadic group. The vessel is an old Jinkusu design, heavily modified to have extra residential and industrial facilities. As such, the vessel is less so a warship than a mobile station. It boasts a population of roughly 700, at least 450 being residents. The industrial modules focus on construction of ship materials, food, and pharmaceuticals. The ship is nearly self sufficient in regards to living requirement. For any other need, shipments need to be made to help keep the vessel running.

The ship was one of the first of it's designs to go out and explore beyond the colonies. The hope was to find worlds beyond the houses to settle and be free of governmental rule. One system far outside the Sirian Sector was scanned and noted for a possible habitable planet. After the long journey there, they found the system extremely hostile and newly formed. The planet was a volcanic, arid, and cracked ball that was flung to the outer sections of the sun's pull. Putting down a small settlement was found to be a poor choice due to the constant meteor strikes and unstable structure of the planet itself. Quick scans found a unique material among the lava flows which was sampled and taken back to the fleet, among other samples. Finding their exploration fruitless, the Antilles fleet set course for Sirius with hopes of venturing out once again.

Biodome Farms

One of the biodomes hosts a section which is walled off and under tight security. Residents don't speak of it, though passengers say it's treated as a lab of sorts. The rest of the biomes hold enhanced farms to produce food and medical goods. Though only two are visible to the outside, a third farm is found inside, stretching most of the ships length. The extra farm acts as both extra food production as well as a cultural pillar. Everything grown must not be enhanced or selectively engineered. In one of the larger galleys, the farm soil leaks onto the walkway and a few animals graze on what seems to be wild grass, giving the section an almost planet feel.

Currently, the Panama moves mostly solo from the Antilles fleet, though the hope is to one day reform and set off once again.
