=====Hercules Station=====

Hercules Station is the headquarters of Hercules Squadron, a Space Patrol Squadron tasked with the survey, contact and protection of human colonies in the 6 sectors of [[hercules_cluster|The Hercules Cluster]].  The station is homebase for 6 frigates, each assigned to 1 sector, 2 more frigates held at base as reserves.  There are also 3 dispatch ships at the station for communication duty.

The station is located in a star system with no terrestrial planets, although two of the gas giants in system have large moons, one of which has a small Space Patrol scanner outpost.

There are approximately 200 personnel on the station (not counting the crews of the 6 survey frigates) on permanent duty. It takes a dispatch ship or frigate 80 days to reach Earth from the station.  One is sent back as soon as one arrives from Earth every 80 days.
