Orbital Corridor
DRAG TO ROTATE · SCROLL TO ZOOM
Transparent polymer skin over a rigid orbital truss, unpressurized, station-attached. The field of play occupies the central 60 m; illuminated Terminal Planes — red one end, blue the other — mark the scoring boundaries. A 1 m buffer past each Plane houses the capture net.

A dense steel sphere — the sole object of play. No player may make intentional contact with the Core by body or suit. The Staff is the sanctioned interface, mechanically incapable of grasping; play upon the Core is non-covalent — catch, redirect, release.
