O'Neill Cylinder Jovia, Jovian Moon System Jupiter
The scene of hundreds of ball-like space fighters known as the F-201 Space Based Close Space Support planes, with a small size of only 1 meter wide, left the UNFE (United Naval Forces of Earth) Ship Lunar Fall, a Jupiter Class Supercarrier.

It was the largest ship in the entire UFE Navy clocking in at a length of 4 kilometers and 400 meters wide, its unparalleled size allowed it to outgun any and all UNFE ships before it. It holds 3 large 16 in. Railgun Batteries on both the top side and the bottom each, along with 6.5 in. Railgun batteries on each side.

Being supported by hundreds of smaller flak guns along with a multitude of missile batteries all capable of launching 300 small space to space anti space vehicle missiles, 20 large Space to Space Torpedoes. Along with many Laser Point Defense Systems.

The ship was able to launch inter lunar space/air interceptor Space superiority fighters and bombers along with the small ball-like close space support fighters capable of being fielded in the thousands due to their small size and little to no crew requirement to operate.

Lunar Fall had five main hangar bays on both sides all located towards the center of the ship, they also had a multitude of support and smaller hangar bays allowing for the launching and landing of small transport ships.

The ship in itself was being escorted by two 2 kilometer Saturn Space Battleships with similar gun armaments to the Lunar Fall itself, just without the Hangar bays. 

There were other ships such as the Neptunian Heavy Cruiser with only one large sixteen inch railgun battery, and two five inch railgun batteries with a length of only one kilometer.

There was the Venusian Light cruiser with two five inch railgun batteries coming at a length of five hundred meters.

Then there was the small Mars Class Missile Destroyer SpaceShip, being only armed with one five inch railgun battery but having a multitude of missile batteries, with it coming in at a length of 50 meters.

When the Jupiter or Saturn class ships fired their armaments no sound came out of them as there was no medium for the sound to travel through. Except that didn't stop them from being deadly.

They teared right through the Rebel Ships like a hot knife through butter. Within 30 minutes the battle was over leaving only the occupying rebel forces on the O'Neill Cylinder left.

"Captain? What are the current orders from High Command?" Asked a sailor, the captain remained silent, his face seemed dark then he spoke up.

"Our orders from the brass is... to speed up the Jova Cylinder to experience 10 Gs and more." He said, the entire control room paled at the order.

"Increase the Gs! There's still civilians there! Can't we atleast give them a chance to escape?" Said a sailor.

"Those orders are absolute. If I had a choice I would've given them the chance to escape but we will all be shot if we let them escape. So do it, begin increasing the Gs on Jova!" The captain ordered, the entire crew quieted the bridge and was absolutely silent, an aura of dread at what they're going to do.

"You heard the captain, begin preparations to increase the Gs on Jova." Said the Commander.

The crew of the Lunar Fall and her escort ships began preparations to increase the Gs on the Cylinder. Blockading Jova in the process. Rocket boosters were launched from the ships and placed on the outer shell of the Jova O'Neill Cylinder.

Within 30 minutes preparations for increasing the Gs on Jova were finished.

"Captain... Preparations are complete." Said Sailor.
