Capella (World) Synopsis
Capella is a ring of many small worldlets (planetoids AKA an "asteroid belt"), not capable of retaining an atmosphere or water, and nonindustrial 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.
- The worldlets require extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. Having to import most manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
- It is a member of the Solomani Confederayion in the Capella Subsector of Solomani Rim Sector.
Description
The research firm, Probable Technologies, is based in the Capella system.
Non-canon: A former colony of Aquitaine, Capella is known for its rich planetoid belts . Survey experts predict that the Capellan belts will continue to support the needs of the Boötean Federation for at least the next 325 years.
Also in the Capella system is Probable Technologies, a sectorwide corporation based on San Roque, the moon of a large gas giant. ProbTech has a reputation for manufacturing and promoting high technology.
