The Dark Wheel base may be a hybrid ship-station structure similar to Jacques Station, with ring geometry matching generation ship designs. Visual analysis of station architecture and symbol encoding suggests the station itself may be a key to recognition or access.

Dark Wheel base described as disused starport but could be similar to Jacques Station—a ship functioning as a starport. Jacques was discovered in populated system in Colonia where no population should exist; suggests searching similar low-power anomalies.
The Dark Wheel image on page 1... ... looks like a ship, not a station. Compare to this, recently posted images of generation ship Odysseus, orbiting Ross 859 B 1. The thickness of the Dark Wheel "station" ring and structure elements look like the last ring of the ship. And even the star looks similar. Click to expand... True. And even tho their base is described as a disused starport, Jacques is also a starport but really is also a ship. TDW base could be along the same lines. I doubt it would be this easy, but Jacques was found when someone happened upon a system marked as populated in the Colonia region where no one should have been. And Jacques was also running on low power, albeit unintentionally. Maybe I’ll scan around where we’ve been looking currently, and also the Void region ...
The Dark Wheel 'station' ring structure and thickness resemble the last ring of generation ship Odysseus orbiting Ross 859 B 1. The star in both images appears similar, suggesting the Dark Wheel may be a generation ship rather than a traditional station.
