Oppenheimer Station (also known as Oppenheimer Research Outpost) is a Regula Class station located in the Gamma Coronae Borealis system (abbreviated γ CrB).
The facility is fairly unusual in that it is anchored at the L4 Lagrange point with its two parent bodies being the γ CrB - B star and the γ CrB - B6 planet . Over millennia the L4 Lagrange point has accumulated a large amount of stellar debris and dust resulting in the formation of a large Ionised dust cloud that resembles a small micro-nebula
