HOME - Definition and Overview

The GACE-59650 HOME is a cargo ship that was modified by the Junk Guild for use in their salvage operations. The ship has no armament of any kind, but mounts 8 manipulator arms for cargo handling. HOME is commanded by a mysterious woman known only as "The Professor", and the remaining crew are Junk Guild technicians Lowe Gear, Liam Garfield, and Kisato Yamabuki. After a salvage operation at the destroyed colony Heliopolis, HOME acquires the MBF-P02 Gundam Astray Red Frame, and becomes a target for many people who desire the advanced mobile suit. Eventually, the ship is damaged beyond repair after a battle with the MBF-P01 Gundam Astray Gold Frame forces it into the Earth's atmosphere. The crew of HOME utilizes the salvaged land battleship Lesseps until acquiring the ReHOME to replace their lost spaceship.
