Located on the northwest corner of the Temple, the Tower of First Knowledge was designed to symbolize unity and the steps to enlighenment each Jedi must take. The masonry of the spire is supported by a highly-tensile substance known as magnate, which aids in the support of the thin frame of the Tower. Also, the permem incorporated into the Council Chamber’s windows supports in maintaining a constant gravity balance, along with keeping the artificial air supply operational at such altitude. The turbolift that lead to the Meeting Room at the top was crafted by great Jedi architects, who incorporated Force-inspired, internal dynamics, which allows for the different sizes and shapes of the Order’s members to ascend the narrow spire.
The center of the tower has a reception hall, and a bridge leading out from the reception hall connects the twoer to the roof of the Temple Ziggurat. Two large bronzium statues flank the tower's doors on the bridge. The lower levels houses the many training facilities, from training areas for combat as well as a gym. In the main Training Hall, a balcony encompasses the entire room, allowing for masters, teachers, and the occassional group of students to observe the training going on below. At the higher levels is a planetarium, though it rarely sees use anymore as most students tend to just read up on such things in the archives.
It is one of the most important towers in the daily operation of the teaching institution that is the Coruscanti temple, as it hosts the meetings of all the faculty in residence as well as the Jedi Masters who teach on occassion as their duties take them to Coruscant. The resident teachers also have their rooms in this tower. The other reason it is important to the daily life of the temple is because it also houses the Jedi Archives. Tranquility Spire might house the sacred texts of old, but the Archives is a library that is accessible to all younglings, padawans, and jedi. Its halls are always open, and its not unusual to see students and masters alike there at odd hours.
