History
The House of Planets was constructed in 2106 CE, to house the Senate of the Initiative, on land previously occupied by the former colonial-era government complex. It was designed to house representatives from each colony with a population over ten thousand. It's design was influenced by a fictional building from a 1953 CE novel by Andre Norton.
Design
Located on the Plaza de Fondateurs (Plaza of Founders), the House of Planets serves The senate hall is laid out in a circle, with tiers of desks arranged by planet size, with the largest seated the closest to the open center. It was designed to hold up to five hundred planetary representatives. The dome of this chamber is dark, with a projected starfield which highlights the star of the representative talking.
Defenses
The House of Planets is designed to be defensible by an under strength battalion in the event of an emergency. Many of the doors between key sections are armored beneath the ornate designs. Scattered throughout the complex are arrays of cameras and sensors hidden in the ornate wall designs.
