Autobot Orbital Command Hub
- The Autobot Orbital Command Hub is an Autobot-manned spacestation in the Generation 1 continuity family.
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.<sup id="cite_ref-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-0" title="">[1]</a></sup>
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

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
