Several spaceships surrounded the outskirts of the planet, forming space roads in and out of the planet, showing to the group the entrances and exits of this colossus where they would first stop to investigate the tracks of the 'king of beasts'.
There were basically two methods of entering Eater. Using an instantaneous transport from one of the space stations that functioned as Eater's moons, or going directly to the planet with your ship, if it had suitable characteristics for entering the area's atmosphere.
As you'd imagine from a high level planet, most of the comings and goings didn't face Eater's atmosphere. The greatest flow was obviously in the various space stations nearby, which outnumbered those around Zocarro.
