'''Bolse''' is an artificial defense satellite in orbit of the world of [[Venom]]. It was created by [[Andross]] to protect his capital world and as a staging platform for his armies in their invasion of the [[Lylat System]] during the [[Lylat Wars]].
 
It serves as one of the two possible penultimate levels in ''[[Star Fox 64]]''. It's the only stage in the game that lacks a boss, (the [[Star Wolf]] team will appear, if they weren't defeated on [[Fichina]]) though the satellite's core acts like a boss.
 
==Overview==
 
Created for the defense of Venom, Bolse is a massive artificial satellite in orbit of Andross' capital planet. It is protected by a force field that makes it immune to remote scanning and allowed it to shrug off capital ship weaponry. [[File:Satellite.jpg|thumb|left|250px|The Satellite core, protected by a force-field.]]The sheer size of the station and the amount of magnetic energy generated by its force field give Bolse a strong gravitational field. Besides its laser cannons, Bolse also houses missiles and [[Bolse Fighter]]s, along with armies to be used for the invasion of [[Corneria]].
 
The power needed for the operation of Bolse is generated by a bionuclear core. The fusion of biomutated energy and nuclear power gives the station the immense power needed to battle entire fleets of enemy ships. However, this reaction is also incredibly unstable, turning the defense satellite into a ticking time bomb. Six reactor pylons were needed to cool and stabilize the generator, otherwise the core would undergo bionuclear meltdown. This is believed to have happened to a Bolse prototype, and the fallout supposedly created [[Sector Y]].
 
==History==
 
Bolse comes under attack by the [[Star Fox Team]] as they head the invasion of Venom. [[Fox McCloud]] and his team, aware of Bolse' weakness from stolen design documents, are able to destroy the six generator pylons and expose the core to attack. Not even the arrival of the [[Star Wolf Team]] is able to prevent Star Fox from destroying the station and opening the way for Venom's invasion.
