The Platform, when not in use, sits close to Solaris Humanus's hull.
When in use it extends out from Solaris's hull.
Its purpose is to protect Solaris, it is a separate unit from Solaris.
It is a ship on its own, but also part of Solaris.
it has its own Medical, Security, Transporter Station, Quarters, Cafeteria, etc..
Its Primary purpose is to house ships and their crews when its not
certain if they are 'safe' enough to land and dock on Solaris itself.
Because it is meant to be separate, in case of emergencies, it can be ejected into space.
It also has its own self destruct ability, when activated.
As a ship, it is capable of everything a ship is, but only the Senior staff and Security
know this.
As a separate entity, from Solaris, the only thing that connects to The Visitors Platform,
other then the mechanical unit that extends The Platform is the TTT, but it doesn't completely
enter The Visitors Platform, it only travels as far as the extention portion of Solaris that
rises it out of Solaris. The TTT platform at the base of the Visitors Platform, where its hull,
is its own ship.
There is no other connection to Solaris, when extended. No hard wiring, no communications line, but comm's work, no fuel lines, electronic or computer connections, etc... nothing.
For Security, the hall that leads to the TTT platform, there are scanners placed here, that detect any medical, or biological
issues, etc... and any weapons. Only those cleared to carry weapons can pass, those with any issues, medical or biological,
they will be instantly encased in a force shield.
Only those with current security clearance to carry weapons are able to pass these scanners.

TTT - Turbo Tube Transport - Into and from Solaris - You'll pass through a security scan as you enter Solaris.
TTT - Turbo Tube Transport - This is either the start of the line or the end of the line, depending on whether you are coming or going.
You'll pass through a security scan as you enter Solaris.
TTT - Travel Tube Transport -Visitors Platform: access able only when the Platform is docked with the Station
Out of Character, when you post be sure to identify any weapons you have on you. This applies to new members only, the station's computer recognizes that Solaris Senior Staff members, can carry weapons, and especially the SST and Security Chief.
