History
Starcore One
Starcore One was an orbiting laboratory satellite space station designed by NASA physicist Dr. Peter Corbeau. It first appeared in Hulk #148 (Feb 1972) and was created by Archie Goodwin and Herb Trimpe. Starcore was financed, launched, and manned under United Nations auspices, and primarily used for scientific observation of the sun. The station is notable for detecting the activities of Dark Phoenix in Earth's solar system. The station was destroyed by instabilities caused by a Shi'ar wormhole.[1]
