InterCore is currently the sole **Megacorporation** operating out of Iridia system, and one of the largest Megacorporations in Recom space. InterCore (or **IC** for short) produces a vast line of products, from household tools and utensils to military hardware and beyond. The corporation is a leader in advanced avionics, weapons systems, and modular ship components. Since the turn of the 23rd century, IC has directed significant R&D funding to advancements of [[Artificial Intelligence]] systems which has propelled the corporation to one of the premier developers of cutting-edge machine intelligences. | InterCore is currently the sole **Megacorporation** operating out of Iridia system, and one of the largest Megacorporations in Recom space.

InterCore operates and maintains small merchant, defensive, and scientific fleets of comparable size and composition to other Megacorporate entities. The majority of these ships are merchant vessels, though defensive escorts are available for protection in hostile territory or defense from pirate attacks. A small but potent scientific fleet permits long-term research of remote locations, with ships capable of deploying in excess of one year without requiring resupply. | InterCore operates and maintains small merchant, defensive, and scientific fleets of comparable size and composition to other Megacorporate entities.

After the disaster in Alpha Dome on Luna and underscored by the political unrest on Mars which followed shortly after, InterCore announced plans to develop a hospital ship. While few details have been released, design specifications call for a full-service orbital hospital and triage center, accompanied by atmosphere-capable landing craft which can provide field hospital services in virtually any planetary environment. | After the disaster in Alpha Dome on Luna and underscored by the political unrest on Mars which followed shortly after, InterCore announced plans to develop a hospital ship.

Prophecy provides significant assistance for in-house scientific and R&D projects for InterCore, and processing time is also leased to other companies for scientific research. Students studying computer science in Oceanian universities enjoy free (though restricted) access to the AI as well. | ||
