<aside> 💡 Most starports are surrounded by defense stations (like in Rebel Galaxy), which are satellites equipped with weapons platforms that can defend against ships that might attack the starport. Some are automated, some are controlled from within the station or, most often, both. These stations are heavily shielded, unmanned, and quite distant from the starport with long range weapons.
