Kethis XII
Yellow Dwarf · Sector E6
Golden star supporting diverse planetary ecosystems. Optimal stellar conditions support diverse planetary biospheres.
It has no asteroid belt: only a few stray clumps of rock. Which stations, gates and relays stand here changes hour by hour, as the factions contest the galaxy.
Corvex IX
- Corvex IX Alpha Solid rocky satellite with mineral-rich surface deposits. First contact protocols recommended for initial diplomatic engagement. Sophisticated technology provides extensive trade and diplomatic opportunities. Service-oriented economy provides excellent facilities for crew rest and recreation.
- Corvex IX IX Glacial satellite featuring ice geysers and frozen valleys. Allied territory with favorable trade agreements and docking privileges. Emerging technology base offers potential for technological exchange. Research facilities may provide advanced technology and upgrades.
- Corvex IX VIII Cratered moon featuring valuable ore veins and mining potential. First contact protocols recommended for initial diplomatic engagement. Limited technological development restricts communication and trade options. Primary food production makes this world valuable for supply operations.
- Corvex IX I Dusty world with extreme temperature variations and sandstorms. Enemy forces may engage on sight - avoid unless absolutely necessary. Advanced spaceflight capabilities enable regular interstellar commerce. Manufacturing capabilities offer repair services and equipment procurement.
Lambda Cassiopeiae I
- Lambda Cassiopeiae I III Dry satellite featuring ancient riverbeds and mineral deposits. Enemy forces may engage on sight - avoid unless absolutely necessary. Cutting-edge technology may offer access to advanced systems and knowledge. Primary food production makes this world valuable for supply operations.
- Lambda Cassiopeiae I I Crystalline moon with subsurface oceans beneath the ice shell. First contact protocols recommended for initial diplomatic engagement. Limited technological development restricts communication and trade options. Major trade hub with extensive merchant networks and market opportunities.
- Lambda Cassiopeiae I Pi Asteroid-like moon with significant geological activity. Aggressive locals pose a significant threat to unauthorized vessels. Cutting-edge technology may offer access to advanced systems and knowledge. Manufacturing capabilities offer repair services and equipment procurement.
- Lambda Cassiopeiae I V Dusty world with extreme temperature variations and sandstorms. Independent territory with standard diplomatic protocols. Cutting-edge technology may offer access to advanced systems and knowledge. Primary food production makes this world valuable for supply operations.
Upsilon Cassiopeiae V
- Upsilon Cassiopeiae V V Dusty world with extreme temperature variations and sandstorms. Allied territory with favorable trade agreements and docking privileges. Cutting-edge technology may offer access to advanced systems and knowledge. Major trade hub with extensive merchant networks and market opportunities.
Wormholes
- Psi Cassiopeiae III Wormhole A natural wormhole to sector D6, the Psi Cassiopeiae III system: an unsteady throat that comes and goes. Sun-like star providing optimal conditions for planetary development.
- Omicron Ursae VI Wormhole A natural wormhole to sector E5, the Omicron Ursae VI system: a strong, steady throat. Compact star representing the final stage of stellar evolution.
- Myrrhen Wormhole A natural wormhole to sector F6, the Myrrhen system: a faint, flickering tear. Massive, hot star burning through its fuel at an accelerated rate.
- Kethis Wormhole A natural wormhole to sector C6, the Kethis system: an unsteady throat that comes and goes. Medium-sized star in the prime of its stellar evolution.
Phenomena
- The Ardanis Cradle A stellar nursery: protostars kindling in a glowing knot of gas and dust. The rocks nearby are rich, and the rare goods trade follows them.
- The Tolvar Anomaly A gravitational anomaly: space bends visibly round it. It makes the wormholes here easier to find and to stabilise.
Relays
- Survey log, Upsilon Cassiopeiae V: Toxic wasteland with corrosive atmosphere and volcanic activity.
- Recovered log, drive failure off Upsilon Cassiopeiae V: 'Holding orbit. Life support at forty percent. If anyone hears this, we're on the inner lane.'
- From the Meridian: we call at every station in Kethis XII on our circuit. Dock under way; we'll match your speed.
- Survey log, Lambda Cassiopeiae I Pi: Asteroid-like moon with significant geological activity.
- Survey notice: the way toward Omicron Ursae VI has been charted. Unstable space; approach with caution.
- Memorial buoy: for the crews lost in the 3224 war over Corvex IX. Fly quietly here.
- Nav advisory: Kethis XII is a yellow dwarf. Optimal stellar conditions support diverse planetary biospheres.
- From the Meridian: we call at every station in Kethis XII on our circuit. Dock under way; we'll match your speed.
- Survey notice: the way toward Psi Cassiopeiae III has been charted. Unstable space; approach with caution.
- Survey notice: the way toward Omicron Ursae VI has been charted. Unstable space; approach with caution.
- Old relay, still transmitting: 'This is Lambda Cassiopeiae I traffic control. All lanes nominal.' The station it belonged to is long gone.
