'''INS Jericho''' is a [[StarCitizen:space station]] in the [[StarCitizen:Stanton System]], located close to [[StarCitizen:microTech (planet)|microTech's]] [[StarCitizen:lagrangian point]] 1 (aka MIC L1). It is a naval base, acting as a forward outpost for quick deployment of [[StarCitizen:UEE Navy]] forces within the Stanton system.<ref name="in-game">[[StarCitizen:Star Citizen Alpha 3.12.0|Alpha 3.12.0]] in-game survey</ref>

It was completed in 2871 and named after famed squadron leader [[StarCitizen:Amare Jericho]]. The station is outfitted to provide logistical support, refueling and resupply options for a variety of [[StarCitizen:capital ships]], as well as smaller support and combat vessels.<ref>{{SC/Cite game|build=[[StarCitizen:Star Citizen Alpha 3.14.0]]|text=In-game starmap description|accessdate=2021-07-17|game=}}</ref>

==Discovery==
The space station was supposedly implemented with [[StarCitizen:Star Citizen Alpha 3.12.0]], which also featured the gas cloud tech. The station was placed within an extensive formation of gas clouds in an attempt to hide it. Shortly after Alpha 3.12.0 was deployed to the "wave 1" [[StarCitizen:PTU]], a player / [[StarCitizen:reddit]] user named Storm Eagle posted multiple pictures on spectrum and reddit.<ref name="spectrum">{{SC/Cite RSI|url=https://robertsspaceindustries.com/spectrum/community/SC/forum/3/thread/i-present-you-ins-jericho|text=Spectrum: I present you INS Jericho!|accessdate=2020-12-14}}</ref> This resulted in many other players attempting to find it.

==Location==
Its location is not visible on the in-game [[StarCitizen:Starmap]], but players can attempt to navigate to it using a set of distance numbers, with which can be triangulated to its location.<ref name="in-game" /><ref name="spectrum" />

Since [[StarCitizen:Star Citizen Alpha 3.12.1]] however, the station has its own quantum marker and can be travelled to freely to allow for civilians to support the Navy in the efforts fighting the [[StarCitizen:XenoThreat]] invasion. The navigation marker only appears during these events.

== Trivia ==

* A 1/1000 scale model of INS Jericho by [[StarCitizen:Planet Ring Heavy Industry]] was shown at [[StarCitizen:CitizenCon]] 2024.
