Description / Specifications
The System Densities table describes the density of Star Systems in the different areas of known space.
Stellar System Density Table
ZT | Zone Type (ZT) | Designation | % | Subsector Range | Sector Average | Sector Range | Remarks |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
AV | Absolute Void | Empty | 0% | 0 worlds | 0 worlds | 0 worlds | Absolutely empty of significant planetary objects. |
EG | Extra-Galactic | Very Sparse | 1-2% | 1 world | 6 worlds | 1 to 37 worlds | Rogue planets and other galactic ejecta.
|
IntG | Rift | Sparse | 3-6% | 2 to 5 worlds | 38 worlds | 38 to 215 worlds | Rifts are the mostly empty places within a galaxy structure.
|
IntG | Spare | Very Low | 7-32% | 6 to 25 worlds | 216 worlds | 216 to 419 worlds | Spare zones begin to form aggregate planetary masses.
|
IntG | Scattered | Low | 33-49% | 26 to 39 worlds | 420 worlds | 420 to 639 worlds | Scattered zones contain significant planets and have significant potential for conventional life.
|
IntG | Standard | Average | 50-65% | 40 to 52 worlds | 640 worlds | 640 to 839 worlds | Standard zones contain a goodly number of planets and have good potential for conventional life.
|
IntG | Dense | High | 66-82% | 53 to 65 worlds | 840 worlds | 840 to 1,059 worlds | Dense zones contain a lot of planets and have very good potential for conventional life.
|
IntG | Cluster | Very High | 83-90% | 66 to 72 worlds | 1,060 worlds | 1,060 to 1,169 worlds | Cluster zones contain many planets and have great potential for conventional life.
|
IntG | Core | Dense | 91-100% | 73 to 80 worlds | 1,170 worlds | 1,170 to 1,280 worlds | Core zones contain many, many planets, but the density and radiation make conventional life very difficult.
|
IntG | Full | Very Dense | 100% | 80 worlds | 1,280 worlds | 1,280 worlds | The maximum number of Main World star systems possible within the specified area. |
- IntG = Intragalactic Space.
