Whether you breathe methane or oxygen, feel comfortable at plus 200 degrees or minus 200 degrees: ORBIT HOSPITAL guarantees you optimal medical care. ORBIT HOSPITAL is a clinic in space that provides medical assistance to all spacefaring life forms in the galaxy. It accommodates all creatures, whether they have a dozen limbs or none at all, whether they feed on radioactivity or breathe water - not to mention other exotic habits and needs. It is an ecological madhouse and an organizational absurdity, but it is there for everyone and it works. It is literally - a matter of life and death.
