Welcome aboard... intrepid Space traveler... to...
~ Terrapin Station ~

A lovley view of heaven... but I'd rather be with you.

Watch your head as you enter our low-orbiting, self-sustaining space station. We are a "freeport" station, in that we operate outside of national identity or national jurisdiction. As we circle our home world... that "bright blue ball just spinning, spinning free," we are constantly reminded of the global perspective. We provide access to all points off-world. In addition to being a gateway to our solar system and beyond, Terrapin Station acts as a repository for a wide assortment of galactic databanks, both terran and extra-terrestrial.

Terrapin Station was salvaged from a decaying soviet space program, and is manned and maintained by an unlikely confederation of techno-gurus from Silicon Valley, scientists from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and Deadhead tapers from San Francisco. Our mission is to provide access to our many database archives, facilitate the global perspective of spaceship earth and to assist in transporting our understanding of what it means to be human a little furthur along as we travel outside earth's gravity well and into the unknown.

Check out the view from the porthole, then check out our data...

In addition to the many databanks, Terrapin Station acts as a transmitter of “Radio Free Dead”, the Tek-Gnostic pirate radio station. We consider this a public service for our galactic community. We maintain other archival materials pertaining to Jehovah's favorite choir. Follow the links below for more information, and remember: Once in a while you get shown the light... in the strangest of places... if you look at it right !
