  • This Watchtower was much larger to accommodate the expanded League following the Thanagarian invasion. In addition to the League members, the Watchtower also employed an extensive support staff. The base was equipped with wide hangar facilities, including at least nine separate landing pads to support the fleet of improved Javelins. as well as large cargo and transports for humanitarian emergencies. It also housed the powerful orbit-to-ground Binary Fusion Generator which was the power supply for the entire facility; However the generator also doubled as a weapon. Housed in its lower decks, in the event of an attack similar to the Thanagarian invasion. Firing the weapon required tremendous amounts of energy, and was done sparingly if at all. After firing, the Watchtower's power systems required one hour to recharge and restore primary power to the station. Until then, the station would be on strictly emergency power, life support and artificial gravity. Communications were largely blacked out beyond a special communications link to the President of the United States. The Watchtower's center was a promenade with a monitor perch. Around it were an operations pit and a teleport platform. It was directly adjacent to the hangars and to several hallways that lead to storage facilities, the commissary, an infirmary, laboratories for research and repair, and living quarters that catered to each member's living conditions. The Watchtower was originally slated to be decommissioned after the Cadmus incidents, but instead was used in tandem with the League's new ground-based headquarters, the Metro Tower. However, the station's main energy cannon was taken permanently off line to avoid a repeat of the dangerous incident where Lex Luthor hijacked the weapon long enough to make an unwanted firing on Covenant, New Mexico and frame the League for it.
