The wreck is the crash site of the The ship on Calima: the cubicles that landed, scattered over a huge V-shaped region of karstic jungle and cliffs, and the camp the survivors build among them.
In Descent (2258)
Description
The outermost cubicles, the periphery, are in fair condition, tilted on flattened trees and rock, with ladders and log platforms added and blue hydrogel signs pointing the way; they hold workshops, laboratories and work cubicles. The modules that crashed hardest lie at the centre, around a crater just over half a kilometre across, where the fractured ground collapsed under their weight. The reclaimers work down in it day and night.
Around the crater's rim the survivors have raised camps, stalls, workshops and warehouses, a market and even a cubicle given over to sex; bonfires burn everywhere, and their smoke thins the fog enough to see the stars. The camp follows a radial layout, and among its quarters are the The hunters' camp, Wang's camp and the The zeichen market. The exploration vehicle, which landed intact, stands on the periphery.
