The '''Poby''' is [[StarCitizen:Audrey Timmerman|Timmerman]]'s experimental [[StarCitizen:Ships|ship]], an old [[StarCitizen:Aurora (series)|Aurora]] with [[StarCitizen:Xi’an]]-inspired maneuverable thrusters, that she named after her cat.<ref>{{Cite RSI|url=https://robertsspaceindustries.com/en/comm-link/spectrum-dispatch/18974-Portfolio-Eras-Of-IAE-History|text=Portfolio: Eras of IAE History|accessdate=2022-11-09}}</ref><ref name=":0">{{Cite RSI|url=https://robertsspaceindustries.com/en/comm-link/spectrum-dispatch/16841-Portfolio-Intergalactic-Aerospace-Expo|text=Portfolio: Intergalactic Aerospace Expo|accessdate=2018-11-14}}</ref>

Afraid to test fly the ship on a heavily populated planet, Timmerman and fellow aerospace enthusiasts loaded Poby and a number of other heavily modified ships onto a transporter and flew to the nearly desolate planet of [[StarCitizen:Castor]] to test fly them. Though it was an informal gathering, historians now considered it to be the very first [[StarCitizen:Intergalactic Aerospace Expo]].<ref name=":0" />

Poby’s first flight was a disappointment, as a power surge fried a number of her experimental thrusters. Timmerman wasn’t deterred by the failure — quite the opposite, she was energized by the process, and it wasn’t long before this group of experimental spacecraft enthusiasts were meeting regularly to discuss and examine various mods they were building. The annual test flights on Castor became a tradition and grew in popularity over the years.<ref name=":0" />
