The Northstar Spaceport is home to the Lac Glacei space program and is situated in the Violette Sea among the Purple Isles. Following Lac Glacei's occupation of the Purple Isles, the government initiated reconstruction efforts on the ancient Gralan Stardock. The port had previously been used to launch Gralus' rockets into orbit, including numerous satellites, but after years of abandonment had fallen into a state of severe disrepair.

Administration of the island falls under the complete authority of the defense department and is thus not treated as a political component of the Purple Isles (as an overseas territory). Thus it has a Director appointed by GARD Command. Security is provided directly by the military, which maintains a small garrison on the island. A small civilian village associated with the scientists working at the spaceport simply called "Quatre" (from "Civilian Quarters") exists, but access to the community is strictly limited to family of those working at the spaceport.
