Morgan's Rock is an asteroid base inside the small NGC 6188 nebula. It is controlled by the Interstellar Mining Corporation, with 26,000 staff on site. All concourse and ship services are available except for outfitting and a shipyard. This is the closest station to Hawking's Gap and the last stop for those going to Eta Carina Nebula 4000ly away. The identity of the station's namesake, 'Morgan,' is unknown.

NGC 6188 is an emission nebula in the southern constellation Ara, located about four thousand light years coreward of Sol. It also has reflection nebulosity due to the associated open cluster, NGC 6193. It is an active, star forming nebula, with some recently formed stars that are only a few million years in age. These stars continue to sculpt the nebula and contribute to the glow with intense solar ultraviolet radiation. The recent star formation was probably triggered by supernova explosions from previous generations of massive stars within.
