Repeater Buoy

Repeater Buoy – the communication and data exchange network (includes GalNet) of the United Stars is considered the most important element of this multicultural mega society.

While the network is instantaneous, it is limited in distance. To overcome this limitation, the network uses repeater buoys. These buoys receive, amplify and re-transmit incoming signals (i.e. GalNet, Explorer Fleet Long Distance Probes, Union ships, etc.)
