Wyn IIa has an automated beacon for an abandoned lithium strip-mine, historically used as a drop for smugglers. After 1136 there was no space-based law-enforcement to smuggle stuff past. Why the beacon remains in not known.
Wyn b and Wyn bI are almost a pair of twin planets. They were formed by an massive collision about 3-billion years ago, about 2 billion years after the system was formed. They are very close and very careful measurements were required to confirm that the two bodies are being pushed, by gravity, slowly apart rather than being drawn together. There was less than 1% margin in the calculation. While noted as moon-locked, there is still slight precession by Wyn b during each stellar orbit so the moon is not entirely stationary when viewed from the surface of that planet.
Ling Standard Products held a long-standing exclusive licence for the extraction of Xenon from the atmosphere of Wyn d, but found other sources nearer the potential markets and neither gave up the licence nor exploited it.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
Demographics[edit]
Between 1136 and 1138 the Aegzagangnthoegngvang migrated to the planet bringing a battalion of light infantry and their dependents. They established themselves as the arbiters of external trade and also started importing what were, to all intents and purposes, human chattel slaves from the Khouth Cluster and Ian Subsector.
Government[edit]
By the end of 1136 the Aegzagangnthoegngvang fully controlled the market in Atmospheric Filters and used control of this vital part of everyday life to enforce their government.
