It has previously been used to manufacture [[starfighter|starships]] and has added [[delver]] training facilities. The shipshipyard is metallic, rectangular,<!-- As Spensa describes half the shipyard as a cube, it seems reasonable to assume that the whole thing would resemble a rectangle--> and incredibly large. [[Spensa]] believes half the shipyard to be the size of a mountain, however, this may be exaggerated. The shipshipyard has, at some point, hasbeen broken into two halves leaving large gaping holes along it'sits side. It is likely that it does not have an AI computer system.{{book ref|sky1|25}}

The bottom of the shipshipyard is coated in hundreds of [[starfighter#Acclivity_ring|acclivity rings]] that keep it afloat. These rings begin running out of power in 83 {{Detritus date|63}} causing the shipyard to fall from the atmosphere as it could no longer correct its orbit. The loss of power in the acclivity rings is gradual, allowing the shipshipyard to fall at a steady pace instead of hurtling straight towards the ground.{{book ref|sky1|25}}

The inside of the shipshipyard contains cranes and other construction equipment. Working emergency lights can still be found throughout the vessel, though they often flicker, indicating their gradual loss of power. A writing system unknown to the Defiant people can be found throughout the shipshipyard. It uses circular patterns similar to those that used near the old machinery in the outer Defiant Caverns.{{book ref|sky1|26}}
