Raxilites designed the enormous Crown Canopy model as a mobile space station, acting as a representation of their home world far from their native star system. Although travel to Raxil is restricted, Crown Canopy capital starships can provide visitors a taste of that idyllic planet, along with raxilite culture, without placing the raxilite home world at any risk. The Crown Canopy resembles UC Gardenships in function, but the vessel functions on a larger scale. Massive hydroponic gardens double as parks and recreation areas for nature lovers, and the vessel is self-sustaining, recycling almost everything. Support ships—Doons, Gleaners, and even Gowans—travel with each Crown Canopy, providing defense and supplemental resources. A Crown Canopy could form the backbone of a self-sustaining carrier battle group in times of war, although as of 317 ag, the vessels have yet to be used for such a task. It's possible the UC will take up the design in the future, perhaps even upgrading it to dreadnought size.
With a light crew complement, a Crown Canopy can accommodate many more guests than its expansions suggest. These small, comfortable lodgings are integrated with the gardens, which include space for “outdoor” sleeping for an experience like camping. The residences and gardens also adjoin the recreation facilities aboard the Crown Canopy, creating a cohesive and pleasant whole for passengers.
