Oom is a low-population vacuum world, with a population of less than 10,000 sophonts in population size, warranting 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.
- It is a member of the Bright Conclave in the Alasim Subsector of Halcyon Sector, which is part of the Distant Fringe.
Astrography and Planetology
This star system is detailed using the Fringian Variant System Description.
- This world lies on the Long Line Star Lane.
- It is a part of the Bright Peninsula.

System Data
Onnek-Oom System
The primary is Onnek, a dim red main sequence star. It has a luminosity of 0.0025 Sols, a mass of 0.244 Sols, and a diameter of 334,000 km. (I) a very thin atmosphere inner world, (II) a trace atmosphere worldlet, (III) an exotic atmosphere radworld, (IV) a ringed large gas giant, (V) Otoch, a large gas giant: (Vc) Oom is its second moon and is designated the mainworld, and (VI) a vacuum iceworld form the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.
Luyt Subsystem
The companion is Luyt, a dim red subdwarf star that orbits Onnek at 82.2 AU (orbital position (XI), 12.3 billion km). It has a luminosity of 0.00103 Sols, a mass of 0.081 Sols, and a diameter of 109,000 km. (I) a vacuum inner world, (II) a sparse icy planetoid belt, (III) a small gas giant, and (IV) a vacuum iceworld form the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.
Boram Subsystem
The far companion is Boram, a dim red subdwarf star that orbits Onnek at 615.5 AU (orbital position (XIV), 92.1 billion km). It has a luminosity of 0.00006 Sols, a mass of 0.058 Sols, and a diameter of 73,700 km. (I) a vacuum worldlet, (II) a trace atmosphere iceworld, (III) a sparse icy planetoid belt, (IV) a large gas giant, and (V) an exotic atmosphere stormworld form the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.
(V) Otoch
(V) Otoch is a large gas giant that orbits Onnek at a mean distance of 1.19 AU (178 million km), within the outer system, and has an orbital period of 2 years 229 days. It has a diameter of 124,000 km and has an atmosphere consisting of 94% hydrogen (H2), 6% helium (He), and less than 1% methane (CH4), carbon monoxide (CO), ammonia (NH3), water vapor (H2O) and other trace gases. It is a banded brown-tan color with powerful storms concentrated within the polar regions. It retains a family of three major satellites.
Satellites
Otoch retains three major satellites:
- (Va) Oom (designated the mainworld, orbiting at 5 Diameters/620,000 km)
- (Vb) Musto (UWP Y101000-0, orbiting at 11 Diameters/1.36 million km)
- (Vc) Gask (UWP Y310000-0, orbiting at 13 Diameters/1.61 million km)
Mainworld Data
(Va) Oom
(Va) Oom is the inner of the three major moons of (V) Otoch and is designated the mainworld. It orbits its parent world at a mean distance of 5 diameters (620,000 km), with an orbital period of 38 days 20 hours: it is tidally locked to Otoch. The axial tilt is 8 degrees relative to Otoch. Oom has a diameter of 2,776 km, a density of 6.88 g/cm³ and a surface gravity of 0.27 G. Tidal stresses generated by the gravitational pull of Otoch cause near continuous geological activity. Oom's atmosphere is rated as Vacuum. The world has no hydrosphere. Mean surface temperature: -130°C.
Mainworld Geography and Topography
Total surface area: 24 million km².
Native Lifeforms
Onnek-Oom System
No world in the system is known to have native life.
Luyt Subsystem
No world in the subsystem is known to have native life.
Boram Subsystem
The large gas giant lying in orbital position (IV) (within the outer system) has jovionoid lifeforms within its atmosphere.
No other world in the subsystem is known to have native life.
History & Background (Dossier)
No information yet available.
World starport
Oom has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which includes amenities including unrefined fuel for starships, some brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing maintenance and other kinds of repair. Ports of this classification generally have only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.
World technology level
Oom possesses a Technology Level of TL–10 or TL-A in Hexadecimal Notation.
- Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Holovision, Personal Global Communications, and advanced Translators.
- Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Increasingly advanced fusion plants and advanced fuel cells.
- Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
- Land & Water: Grav belts and maturing gravcraft.
- Air: Greatly improved hybrid grav-aircraft.
- Space: Improved interplanetary spacecraft (System Craft).
- FTL: Jump Drive-1.
World government
Oom is governed by a Feudal Technocracy. Society divides itself based on the technical requirements of the society. Each of these functions are granted as a fief to an individual or group. Leadership of these fiefs determines the head of the government.
