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.

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) and has an orbital period of 2 years 229 days. It has a diameter of 124,000 km and is a banded brown-tan colour. It retains a family of three major satellites of which the first, (Va) Oom, is designated the mainworld.

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. 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 caused by the gravitational pull of Otoch causes near continuous geological activity. Oom's atmosphere is rated as Vacuum. The world has no hydrographics. Mean surface temperature: -130°C.

Mainworld geography and topography

Total surface area: 24 million km².

Native lifeforms

No world in the Oom system 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.

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.
