Astrographic Features & Trade Routes: 1105

The following astrographic and commercial data has been determined:

Uncharted Anomaly

The "Enigma of Theta Borealis" is a mysterious astrographic feature.

• It is believed to be an uncharted space-time anomaly
• Its precise location, nature, and characteristics remain unknown.
  • It is believed to lie across parts of Monway Subsector and Banderhue Subsector.

Thetan Void

The Thetan Void is a rift region of very low stellar density.

• The Void primarily lies within Sibigil Subsector, with its fringes just within Monway Subsector, Banderhue Subsector, and Phoenix Subsector.
• The Void measures around 10 parsecs spinward-trailing by around 8 parsecs coreward-rimward.
• It is a significant barrier to interstellar travel
• It serves as a natural line of defense for the Trooles Confederation against the Korsumug Empire.
• Its spinward end is known as the Korsumug Gate.

Borealis Group

The subsector forms part of the Borealis Group, a gigantic, broadly spherical cluster of stars centered on Theta Borealis Sector.

• It is a distinctive, extremely bright feature that can be easily observed from all across Charted Space.
• It is more than 40 parsecs in diameter.
• It contains an unusually high number of giant stars.
• It is the density of giant stars within the region, rather than their individual brightness, that makes the feature so prominent.

The night-time skies of all of the worlds across the region are studded with a panoply of colorful, intensely bright stars.

• Some are so bright that they can be clearly seen from planetary surfaces during daylight hours.
• The brightest is Theta Borealis, an unstable, violent, blue-white bright supergiant with a luminosity of around 73,000 sols.
• Other extremely bright stars within the cluster include Sigma Borealis, Tau Borealis, Epsilon Borealis, Mu Borealis, and Kappa Borealis.
• While the cluster contains many extremely luminous giant stars, Theta B is exponentially brighter than any of the others.

Chains of giant stars trail out from the cluster into many of the surrounding sectors.

• Banderhue Subsector lies to coreward-trailing of the clusters core, forming part of a long outlying trail of giant stars.

Stellar Distribution

A basic map showing the distribution and size of stars within Banderhue Subsector.

• The color corresponds to the visible color of the star, which links to its spectral classification.
• The size as shown indicates both the physical size of the object and its relative brightness.

(Chart sourced from Traveller Map).

Note that the stars as depicted are representative. Any star, no matter what its size, is a mere speck within the hex it occupies.

• Ordinary main sequence stars can barely be seen from even a hex away.
• Huge, intensely luminous giant stars can be seen from across the subsector and far beyond.

Subsector Summary: 1105

Banderhue, subsector D of Theta Borealis contains 34 worlds with an estimated population of 46 billion, a per capita income of Cr5,804, and a total economy is BCr271,202. These worlds originate an interstellar trade of BCr189 through 26 starports (7 Class A, 9 Class B, 9 Class C, 1 Class D) employing 23,315 people. Driving this interstellar trade are two Agricultural (Ag) worlds, two Non-Agricultural (Na) worlds, three Pre-Agricultural (Pa) worlds, no Pre-Industrial (Pi) worlds, no Rich (Ri) worlds, and one Industrial (In) world. The governments in Banderhue maintain one Scout base. The average technology level is 8 (with most between 5 and 11). The highest technology level is 13 at Oujda (Theta Borealis 2703), Tamatave (Theta Borealis 2708), and Nithus (Theta Borealis 3107).

Banderhue, subsector D of Theta Borealis contains 50 stars and 360 identified planets; 20 monostellar systems, 12 binary systems, two trinary systems, and no systems with four or more stars. 19 of the 34 systems (55%) have native gas giants. There are no Asteroid (As) belts, two Desert (De) worlds, one Garden (Ga) world, no Ice-capped (Ic) worlds, 13 Poor (Po) worlds, one Vacuum (Va) world, and one Water (Wa) or Ocean (Oc) world.

Banderhue has an estimated population of 46 billion distributed across three High population (Hi) worlds, two Moderate population (Ph) worlds, 13 Non-industrial (Ni) worlds, 15 Low population (Lo) worlds, and one Barren (Ba) world. The highest population world is Oujda (Theta Borealis 2703). The population consists of 5 sophont groups including three native sophonts.

5 identified sophont populations in Banderhue

Humaniti of Terra (Solomani Rim 1827): 46 billion on 33 worlds. Cygmo of Sapies (Theta Borealis 2606): less than 4 million on their homeworld. Mitzene of Sapies (Theta Borealis 2606): less than 4 million on their homeworld. Bose of Wabor-Parn (Theta Borealis 2903): less than 1 million on their homeworld. Trist of Wabor-Parn (Theta Borealis 2903): less than 1 million on their homeworld. Captutian of Nithus (Theta Borealis 3107): less than 1 million on their homeworld.

Non-Aligned, Human-dominated

There are 31 Non-Aligned Human-dominated worlds in Banderhue with an estimated population of 46 billion.

Non-Aligned, unclaimed
