Very cool asteroid based hive.
I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers!

I like this picture.  I wonder how it stays in orbit so close to an atmosphere?  The clouds looks so close.  TerlObar, any ideas?

Maybe it is a gas giant.  The clouds are actually very far away and very large.

If it is in the atmo - chemical burn engines. Could be an advanced anti-grav system or some type of electro-magnetic drive system. Maybe a system that uses...hot gas or a type of repulse system - it uses protons (+) to repulse from eletrons (-) within the atoms within the atmo to provide lift. The opposite would work / use electrons to repulse from protons.
