But I'll never know why it wasn't set up explicitly as a top-secret, elite post with a colony of super-loyalists? Sooner or later, SOMETHING was bound to go wrong or at least need routine maintenance after the lifespans of the Star One denizens.
Maybe they moved Central every twenty years or so in any case, whenever a systems upgrade was needed. YOu build the new one, transfer all the data (by remote transfer) and then destroy the old one.
