Utt is a rich, agricultural world with improving living conditions due to a bustling agro-economy.

• As an agricultural world, this world is a near-ideal environment for producing quality foodstuffs of plant, animal, and other forms. Quality foodstuffs are a major export commodity for this world.
• This is a rich world with a prosperous and thriving world economy.
• This world is rich with high-grade living conditions, a good climate, and a non-harmful environment. Immigration registration for this world is always in high demand.
• This is a "low technology" world with technology competencies well below technology standards for Charted Space.
• It is a member of the Enlightened in the Utt Subsector of Halcyon Sector, which is part of the Distant Fringe.

System Data

Galat-Utt System

The primary is Galant, an orange giant star. It has a luminosity of 140 Sols, a mass of 4.2 Sols, and a diameter of 29.5 million km – the corona of the star lies at 0.1 AU, within orbital position (I). The inner system consists of (I) a small very hot gas giant orbiting close to the surface of the star, (IV) a vacuum worldlet, (V) a corrosive atmosphere inferno world, (VI) a very thin atmosphere inner world, and (VII) a thin atmosphere hospitable world – orbital positions (II) and (III) are empty. (VIII) Utt orbits within the habitable zone and is designated the mainworld. (IX) a sparse stony planetoid belt, (X) a large gas giant, and (XI) a vacuum iceworld form the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.

Mainworld Data

(VIII) Utt

(VIII) Utt is designated the mainworld. It orbits Galant at a mean distance of 10.7 AU (1.6 billion km), within the habitable zone. It has an orbital period of 17 years 29 days and a rotation period of 31 hours. The axial tilt is 15 degrees. Utt has a diameter of 8,144 km, a density of 5.77 g/cm³, and a surface gravity of 0.67 G. The world is geologically active. Its atmosphere is rated as Dense, with a mean surface pressure of 1.69 bar and a composition of 79% nitrogen, 20% oxygen, and 1% argon, water vapour, carbon dioxide, neon and other trace gases. Approximately 60% of the surface is covered in oceans of liquid water: average tidal ranges exceed 0.25m. Mean surface temperature: 22°C. The atmosphere is active and strong weather systems driven by the star and the oceans drive across the globe. The climate is seasonal.

Satellite

Utt retains a single natural satellite, a cratered vacuum worldlet named Ishoy:

(VIIIa) Ishoy (UWP Y100000-0, orbiting at 12 Diameters/98,000 km)

Mainworld Geography and Topography

Total surface area: 208 million km², Water surface area: 125 million km², Land surface area: 83 million km².

Native Lifeforms

Utt has extensive, abundant native life, with complex organisms inhabiting every ecological niche. Their metabolic functions drive the process of atmospheric renewal.

History & Background (Dossier)

No information yet available.

World starport

Utt has a Class D Starport, a poor quality installation which has few of the expected amenities. There is unrefined fuel for starships and a limited variety of ship provisions. There is no shipyard of any kind, but there may be parts and technical support for doing minor services and repair. Ports of this classification generally consist of only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.

World technology level

Utt possesses a Technology Level of TL–4.

• Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Telephone and telegraphs, widespread printing.
• Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Early electricity, hydrocarbon internal combustion.
• Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
  • Land: Trains and early automobiles.
  • Water: Clippers and steam ships.
  • Air: Dirigibles, balloons, very basic rockets.

World government

Utt has a Balkanized Government. There is no central world government. The world has several governments competing for control of the world. These may be allies, cooperating, competitors, or at war with each other.
