Q: What was the Starseed Subterfuge?

11: Entry #37: The Space Station Starsiege
Q: How do we have so much information on Starseed during the Dark Ages?
The Dark Ages are nearly 1,000 years where information all but disappears. However, we have information on Starseed and its trussing, thanks to the well-preserved Captain's Logs.
11: Entry #37: The Space Station Starsiege
Q: Why was the Starship Poohove launched?
The Starship Poohove was a research vessel, launched to study the newly forming star, which we now know as Solubus Orba.
