Planet Butterscotch Swirl, maybe?

The Autobot Orbital Command Hub is the central base of Autobot operations in their galactic war against the Decepticons. A massive space station, it orbits the planet Opulus.<ref>{{#if: The planet (gas giant) around which the Autobots’ command hub orbits is named Opulus (no relation). |"The planet (gas giant) around which the Autobots’ command hub orbits is named Opulus (no relation)."—|}}{{#if: http://simonfurman.wordpress.com/2008/01/22/blaster-from-the-past/#comment-3135 |Simon Furman|Simon Furman}}{{#if: Simon Furman: The Blog |, Simon Furman: The Blog|}}{{#if: BLAST(ER) FROM THE PAST |, "BLAST(ER) FROM THE PAST"|}}{{#if: 2008 |, 2008{{#if: 02 |/{{#switch:{{#len:02}}|1=002|02}}{{#if: 06|/{{#switch:{{#len:06}}|1=006|06}}|}}}}|}}{{#if: http://simonfurman.wordpress.com/2008/01/22/blaster-from-the-past/#comment-3135 ||}}{{#switch:{{#sub:http://simonfurman.wordpress.com/2008/01/22/blaster-from-the-past/#comment-3135%7C7%7C11}}%7Cweb.archive= (archive link)|}}{{#switch:{{#sub:http://simonfurman.wordpress.com/2008/01/22/blaster-from-the-past/#comment-3135%7C8%7C11}}%7Cweb.archive= (archive link)|}}{{#switch:{{#sub:http://simonfurman.wordpress.com/2008/01/22/blaster-from-the-past/#comment-3135%7C7%7C10}}%7Carchive.is= (archive link)|}}{{#switch:{{#sub:http://simonfurman.wordpress.com/2008/01/22/blaster-from-the-past/#comment-3135%7C8%7C10}}%7Carchive.is= (archive link)|}}{{#if: | (dead link)}}</ref>

It is on the Hub that Autobots unassigned to warfront planets are stationed, waiting on-hand in the event that they'll be needed. From these Autobots a crew can be assembled quickly to man one of the Arks.

Due to the pan-galactic nature of the war, the Autobots also use regional command hubs. Spotlight: Cyclonus

Fiction

[edit]

2005 IDW continuity

[edit]

A priority pulsewave from Earth reached Optimus Prime on the Hub Stormbringer #1 just moments before a message buoy was received from the Calabi-Yau. He gathered Autobots from the Hub to crew the Ark-27 and left for Cybertron. Stormbringer #2

With Prime on Earth, Silverbolt became Operational Commander. A salvaged Blaster, having been presumed dead, arrived at the Hub and carried out a galaxy-wide broadcast to Autobot forces in order to draw out his attempted assassin. Spotlight: Blaster

When the Decepticons initiated a major offensive, the Command Hub was cut off from communicating with other Autobots, and may have come under attack. Lost & Found
