The Revelation
A very large data center built collaboratively by the United Nations of Tebburus and Unified Arkan Council on Paragon.
The Revelation is classified a megastructure by some due to its immense scale. Though it is filled with rows of HF Quantum Computing Devices, the UAC helped construct it. Most of its processing is performed by massive populations of microbes constructed with Tebburus - style biomatter, with the advantage of being able to use time crystals for memory keeping. The Revelation has a computational output that can easily exceed most large space stations. Even a Matrioshka Brain built around an M-class star has about 1 order of magnitude more processing than the Revelation, putting its immense computation into perspective. It is one of the largest data centers on Paragon and the entire HF excluding matrioshka brains. Making use of the self-repair abilities given to it by replicators, the structure can be easily modified by the nanobots allowing it to build additional sectors if needed.
To improve the computation of the microbes, Graviton Wave Refraction is exploited and there is no gravity observable within the structure itself. It is possible for most sentient species including humans to enter, they would have no gravity. This comes at the cost of increased gravitation around the exterior of the structure. No microbes are visible from the outside as they are all internal. To anyone entering the structure, there is practically no risk of infection as the microbes were not designed to handle gravity and would be crushed when a person enters a gravitational field. They are also targeted by the immune systems of most species. As many of these organisms undergo reproduction, they are sometimes also harvested for a small measure of highly valuable magnetic monopoles that are very hard to find in most places around the universe.
The entire Revelation is built about 2 km off the ground of the surface it is built. It rests on massive support pillars. Most of the symbols are written in Suon Common, these are mostly visible from the ground. Wile the structure can be climbed, the most common way to reach the top is via teleporter. The pillars also contain superconducting cables that send power from the depths of Paragon to the Revelation, keeping it powered. Paragon is also a large penrose sphere which generates massive amounts of power from a black hole, powering the entire megastructure. For redundancy, every pillar has multiple of these superconducting channels.
The structure is large enough that a city was built on the top to accommodate millions of people. The gravity at the top is still earthlike and while many species can be seen in the city it is mostly suons and Harki. Saelians are also common, but not as common. The megastructure is mostly automated and requires little manpower to remain operational but those that do work in the structure usually live in the city at the top. Most of the popuation does not.
The Revelation is controlled by a large, powerful AI that controls the entire structure. There are various terminals at which people can communicate to it, and it also has a number of QEC machines which also allow communication. It gets most of its data to store through QEC from various other starships.
