History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Prior to the Third Imperium, this world was claimed by the Interstellar Confederacy.

Point of Interest: Self-aware Starship Project[edit]

Celetron Project: The Imperial Naval Base at Celetron is hard at work on a self-aware starship project.

  • While only a ground-based prototype has been produced, the project's technicians are hopeful that an independently intelligent interstellar vehicle will be produced by the end of this century.
  • Partial applications of the technology, such as safer navigation and more accurate ship-to-ship combat, should come much sooner.
  • Celetron has no inhabitants other than Navy personnel.

World Starport (Sp)[edit]

Celetron has a Class A Starport, an excellent quality installation which includes all the expected amenities including refined fuel for starships, brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing annual maintenance, overhauls and other kinds of repair, and construction of both starships and non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.
