Tier 9 combat anomaly in null sec.

There is a Chemical Factory around a bunch of Sharded Rock, but cannot be destroyed.

Factory Defense Sentry x2 can hit out to 140km so get those first. On another run, the sentries were not there.

Admirals can hit out to 70km pretty good.

Main object is a Pirate Gate inside Giant Snake-Shaped Asteroid. Pirate Gate can't be destroyed but Harvester object can.

Warp in to 100km cloaked and no enemies. A popup appeared about the stargate. There is a “Pirate Gate” object (Could not attack. approach to trigger a wave?)

After uncloaking, enemies spawned in about 30 seconds.

Drones could not engage the Pirate Gate. I think it needs to be approached (looks like enemies spawn without approaching).
