The Space Station is made up of 5 main areas: Green Zone: The green-tech side of the space station where research on plants is done.

Blue Zone: The sleeping quarters and command center side.

The Bar: Where the space station residents come to relax, have a drink, and dance.

Central Hangar: Where base is.

The Lab Where experiments are run, data is collected, and late nights doing work are spent.
