[meta] The Main Belt

[robkelk]

I'm cleaning up the Wiki page for the Main Belt, and have noticed two things:

1) We don't have anything on 10 Hygiea, 511 Davida, or 704 Interamnia, the fourth-, fifth-, and sixth-most-massive asteroids in the Belt, respectively.

2) We don't have an official location for Hogwarts.

Were we pretending Hogwarts' location was a "secret"? (I don't recall either way. I do recall we were pretending the Ninja home base was a Hidden Asteroid...) If not, does anybody mind if we put Hogwarts on 10 Hygiea?

And does anyone want to put anything on 511 Davida or 704 Interamnia?

No objections here to 10 Hygiea, and I've got nothing to add to the Belt.

Not sure it needs to be on one of these asteroids, but I just had an idea for a pub catering to the various asteroid miners and other Belters called
Callahan's. I can't actually take the idea any farther since I've never actually read any of the series.

I recall that "Callahan's" was open for business on Port Phobos for the SOS-Con. I don't recall whether it was a permeanent establishment or
a floating bar...

I just remembered that I mentioned the Artemis Project has "Main Belt Research Stations McAuliffe and Chawla" and "shipyard Ley". I envisioned the research stations as constructed habitats, but I never did say where the shipyard is.

Anybody mind if Artemis grabs 704 Interamnia? That still leaves 511 Davida available for someone else...

Hey, there's a couple million asteroids out there, and less than a million fen. I don't think anybody's going to complain if we leave Davida empty.

As for the Ley shipyard, how about 2709 Sagan? It's a Main Belt S-type asteroid about the same size as Phobos. Not one of the biggest objects in the solar
system, but not bad for a shipyard facility.

Oh, that's perfect...
