|The station looked kind of like one of the platforms that surrounded Detritus. A floating city—shaped like a disc, with buildings sprouting from both sides. A bubble of something glowing and blue surrounded it.

When Spensa first approached the [[Superiority]] space station [[Starsight (station)|Starsight]], her description of the station was strongly reminiscent of both the Detritus platforms and Old Earth-built platforms such as Evensong.{{book ref|sky2|9}} Starsight had an artificial "bubble" atmosphere and metal buildings built on both sides of a large disc.{{book ref|sky2|10}} [[Morriumur]] indicated that the Superiority oversaw dozens of platform cities like Starsight that had existed for hundreds of years.{{book ref|sky2|28}} It is unclear if humans actually built these platforms or if alien races who had early contact with humans (such as the [[tenasi]] or [[varvax]]){{book ref|Elysium}} copied their design and technology. The Superiority also used similar artificial atmosphere technology to run smaller platforms, such as mining stations.{{book ref|sky2|13}}
