Comet Mongo 891

Comet Mongo 891: A typical rock, dust, ice comet located within the Mongo System, Mongo/Jewell 1204.

Description (Specifications)

Completing its orbit one time every 66 years. Mongo 891 was discovered in the year 891 and moves at 77 degrees to the ecliptic.

The comet was unremarkable and generally ignored by the residents of the Mongo system beyond mere discovery and documentation of its existence and the fact that it poses no navigational problems.

History & Background (Dossier)

Circa 1104, Mameluke, an Imperial Navy cruiser, was conducting combat training operations within the Mongo system and discovered a secret base.

The base facilities consist of three landing pads and several buildings, a small ice quarry for converting ice into fuel, drinking water and oxygen. They also discovered pallets of rations dating back to the Third Frontier War. Careful examination of the site revealed the Zhodani had been operating an observation post there intermittently for at least one hundred years or more.
