# Nal Hutta Space

## What's New
Pilots can launch into **Nal Hutta Space** (`space_hutta`), a Level 5 veteran sector above Hutta.

| Location | Description |
|---|---|
| Bilbousa Spacedock | Orbital station near the starport corridor: repairs and landing clearance |
| The Smuggler's Shroud | Ionized nebula that degrades sensors and drains shield capacitors |
| Cartel Freighter Graveyard | Debris field popular with scavengers and ambushes |
| Hutt Mining Belts Alpha and Beta | Silicic and carbonaceous space ore |
| Cartel and pirate patrols | Tier 5 Hutt gunships, Black Sun interceptors, corsair wings |

## How to Access
- **From the ground**: use the starport terminal or dispatcher at Bilbousa Starport on Hutta and select **Launch Starship**; you arrive near Bilbousa Spacedock.
- **By hyperspace**: plot a route from the navigation computer to Shadowport Anchorage (`space_hutta_0`), The Smuggler's Gate (`space_hutta_1`) or Cartel Redoubt (`space_hutta_2`).
- **Docking**: get within 400 m of the spacedock, target it and press Comm (`C`). Choose **Request Landing Clearance** or **Starship Repairs** (25/50/75/100%).

## Flight Advisory
<p class="callout warning">[WARNING] Veteran difficulty. Stock or lightly shielded ships are at real risk.</p>
- Sensors are weaker inside the nebula; watch for tracer fire.
- Ion lightning stresses hull and components; route power to shields or leave dense pockets.
- Firing on neutral station installations or Cartel escorts draws heavy gunship fire.
