Calimite is a ring of many small worldlets (planetoids AKA an "asteroid belt"), not capable of retaining an atmosphere or water, and both non-agricultural and preindustrial in nature.

  • These worldlets warrant hazardous environment precautions.
  • Life in a vacuum requires great discipline. After all, it only takes one forgotten seal on a vacuum suit to spell death. Those who survive tend to be very methodically-minded and attentive to small detail.
  • Despite the challenging of living on asteroid colonies, this settlement is at a moderate population status of over a hundred million, but not yet at a billion sophonts in size.
  • The worldlets are, for the most part, unable to produce quality foodstuffs and must import them.
  • These worldlets are working towards being an industrial world but lack adequate resources to do so. Local leaders are diligently working towards the expansion of this settlement's industrial manufacturing capability.
  • It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Alba Subsector of Alpha Crucis Sector.

World Starport

STARPORT TYPE E: This is a Frontier installation. Only a traffic control beacon and a landing pad are available. The port facilities are about average for its class. Each year 6489 passengers are handled and .55 Million tons of cargo shipped. The system has a low traffic volume. There are about 7 Type R (400t) arrivals each day. The port has a double fence, with motion sensors, Guards are patrolling all the time. Additional security measures, PESA AESA, Chem, Radscanner. The whole port measures 1.1 by 1.1 km.

DAILY freight and passenger amounts:

MINOR ROUTE: Cloudia (J-4) 1361t, 7P.

Available trade goods : Sci11, Mat11, Eng11, Inf 9, Tra 8, Wea11 - Bio11, Med 8, Env11

World Technology Level

SCIENCE : Empirical observations allow full access to jump space. The exact relationship of jump space to normal space remains a mystery. Gravitic manipulation continues to advance.

MATERIAL : Crystalline iron and other super-strong allotropes of industrial metals.
ENERGY : First fusion power plants. Energy grids have become global in scope.
INFORMATION : Programmable electronic computers, rapidly becoming small and cheap enough to allow personal use on the desktop. Advanced radio communications include radio telephony, image transmission (television), satellite relays, and digital signaling.
TRANSPORTATION : Fast railways and electric trains. Personal automobiles. Tracked vehicles, usually restricted to military applications. 
WEAPONS : The firearm attains its full maturity with advanced caseless-ammunition weapons (the ACR). Laser weapons become more common on the smallunit scale. Exoskeletons produce powered infantry units. Plasma cannon.
BIOLOGY : Full theory of genetic morphology allows radical modification of species. First integration of mechanical implants with peripheral or sensory nerves. Experimental nanosurgery.
MEDICINE : Mass vaccination techniques. Development of antibiotics lead to the first reliable cures for disease. Rapid development of surgical techniques. Workable prosthetic limbs.
ENVIRONMENTAL : Orbital and deep-space settlements with complete recycling efficiency (microworlds). Similar techniques make arcologies common in crowded planetary urban centers. Practical weather control. Terraforming can cause gradual change in planetary environments.
