New Gettysburg was the name of a city on Tarsonis.

History
New Gettysburg was caught in a major battle between the Terran Confederacy, Sons of Korhal, Protoss and Zerg.

By the end of the battle, New Gettysburg had been reduced to a wreck. Its skyscrapers had fallen, vehicles and bodies littered the streets, adjacent farmland had been set ablaze and even the surface of its once majestic lake had been turned to glass by the heat of Protoss landing craft. By the time the Zerg departed from the world, scant few individuals remained within the city, most having given in to madness or fear.

Trivia
New Gettysburg is featured in Operation Silent Scream, a disabled mission, as a ground-based city. It is not known if both the city and station bore the name, or if Blizzard liked the name enough to "rescue" it after Operation Silent Scream was removed.

The name Gettysburg is often misspelled "Gettysberg" in the StarCraft universe.
