 ===== Notes =====
   * If a station is on an asteroid (e.g., a mining colony) use the size of the station as a guide (the asteroid should be less than twice the size of the station).
   * Stars probably need a different scale.
   * Planets are currently out of scale. They need to be roughly double the size.
-  * CSC is slightly out of scale. It should be around 400 meters, which would make it 331 pixels. Also, Centurions are probably too big--they are probably ~25 meters in diameter.
