Type Spacecraft
Universe Cytoverse
Featured In Skyward (series)

The Yeong-Gwang was a ship in the old fleet which carried humanity to Detritus.

The residents and descendants are known as Yeongian, and are mostly ethnically Chinese or Korean.[1]

After landing, they formed a clan and used their hydroponics knowledge to become underground farmers in a cavern close to Igneous. The food grown by this clan is of high value and is only available to those who have multiple achievement or industry merits. Bim is from that clan.[1]

Trivia[edit]

  • The name of the starship is likely a reference to the South Korean poet Lee Yeong-gwang, who is famous for writing about the pain and trials of youth.
  • Yeong-Gwang (영광) also means glory or honor in Korean.[2]
