The Autonomous Staryard is an independent staryard orbiting Volii Psi in the Volii system.
Background[]
The Autonomous Staryard was an independently-operated staryard that relied on automated assembly lines and robots to efficiently manufacture starships. Following the dismissal of the facility's lead robot programmer, one employee who was less experienced with robot systems and under significant pressure from his superior attempted a revision to increase the robots' labor output, but this apparently turned all of the facility's robots hostile. The robots killed the staryard's security force and all other human employees on board, and then resumed building ships.
