Owned

An Owned galaxy is similar to a Protected galaxy. Combat is still allowed inside the galaxy unlike with Protected galaxies.

To own a galaxy a team must have a colony on one of the planets in the galaxy. The population requirement to own a galaxy based on the total number of galaxies that your team already owns. First galaxy is 100, second is 2000, then 4000, 6000, 8000, etc. There is a 20 minute waiting period for owning a galaxy that starts from the laying of the first teamed base in that galaxy. Once both these requirements are met, if all the bases in the galaxy are on your team, then you can own the galaxy. Unlike Bases, drones do not prevent ownership of a galaxy. A team's Director, Councillors and officers may choose to own or unown a galaxy from menu options: Character -> Team -> Control -> Own Galaxy. Once a Galaxy is owned, other teams cannot place bases or permanent drones in that galaxy.
