Ptolemaeus Lunar Base

The Ptolemaeus lunar base is a moon base in the series Gundam SEED.

History
The Ptolemaeus base was built in CE 35 by the Atlantic Federation to oversee the space colonies. It was built in the Ptolemaeus crater from which it derived its name. The trait to name moon bases after craters they are built in is carried over to future bases and cities.

When the Bloody Valentine War broke out between PLANT and the Earth Alliance, the base became the headquarters of the EA's space fleet from where they launched their attacks on PLANT. The base was destroyed in CE 71 on the last day of the war, by ZAFT's superweapon GENESIS.
