Based on the name of the station, it has been theorized that it held geosynchronous orbit over [[Wikipedia:Malta|Malta]]. By the looks of the station's location through the Cairo Station's windows, however, it appears to be much further south than Malta really is. Additionally, the ''Cairo'', ''Athens'' and ''Malta'' stations are in visible distances of one another whereas their Earth namesakes are hundreds of kilometers apart. | Based on the name of the station, it has been theorized that it held geosynchronous orbit over [[Wikipedia:Malta|Malta]].

Additionally, the ''Cairo'', ''Athens'' and ''Malta'' stations are in visible distances of one another whereas their Earth namesakes are hundreds of kilometers apart, enough that the curvature of the earth blocks direct line-of-sight between them. | ||
