=The Nest (3,000 AU)= 
**Station Type:** [[Beehives|Beehive]]
**Allegiance:** Independent (Exhuman)
**Primary Languages:** Unknown
**Population:** Unknown
The Nest is an exhuman creation, infested with an ecosystem of arthropod biomorphs designed to survive deep space without the use of technology. Research has identiﬁed over forty individual genomes. Individuals have shown limited intelligence, but the complexity of the community suggests either a social intelligence or a dominant consciousness deeper within. All encounters with the Nest have been hostile. The Nest is hurtling away from the solar system at 40 kilometers per second. While this is far too slow to reach another system in the immediate future, the Nest has already spawned two children colonies on neighboring asteroids. Firewall is concerned this particular strain of exhumans may become a powerful presence in the Oort Cloud before transhumanity can establish a toe-hold here.
