Asteroid Library

This is a large Asteroid, approximately five miles in diameter. On the outside, there is nothing remarkable about this asteroid to suggest it is inhabited. Inside, of course, is another matter entirely. Inside a large fissure, 200 feet deep, there is a secret door which leads inside. The halls are smooth, square and bare no tool marks. The vast majority of the Asteroid's interior is taken up by the central Library. The Central Library rests on the Gravity Plane of the Asteroid, The floor is made from glassteel, and there are shelves on both sides. Most of the shelves line up, but there are exceptions where a shelf exists on one side, but not the other. The shelves vary in height from 35 to 50 feet, with ladders being plentiful and sturdy. The walkways are 15 feet wide and the ceiling is 100 feet from the floor, in both directions.

The books are mostly not labeled on the spine, but careful investigation will reveal that the library is carefully and meticulously sorted by category. The bookshelves themselves are not laid out linearly. They form a twisted maze of shelves over a 6000 acre area. Travel from one side of the floor to the other is intermitent at best, further complicating the maze. Non-flyers are encouraged to bring a map or a guide, neither of which are readily available. Illumination is plentiful, provided by glowing glass spheres embedded in both ceilings. The glass floor results in light being available both above and below, which generally enhances the vertigo effect.
