Mainworld Data[edit]

Mainworld Size (S)[edit]

DB5-922 is a Big World between 20,000km and 21,600km diameter. The world has a high gravity between 1.3 and 2.0G. The horizon will appear about 6.6km away. Vessels with 1G of thrust should not land on this world. Vessels with 2G of thrust should check with local starport authorities before attempting to land using emergency power.[2]

  • It has a surface gravity in excess of 1.3 G.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)[edit]

DB5-922 has a Corrosive Atmosphere and possesses a concentrated gas mix or unusual temperature which requires the use of a Hostile Environment Suit or Vacc Suit. TL–9 or more advanced survival gear is required to settle this world.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)[edit]

DB5-922 has 45-55% of its surface covered by a fluid other than water. Wilderness refueling is not possible. Water for the inhabitants needs to be imported and extensively recycled. These worlds may be Hell Worlds.

  • This surface fluid may be ammonia, methane, hydrocarbons, or other exotic liquids depending on the local temperature and environment.

Mainworld Geography and Topography[edit]

No centrally held map of the world exists within AAB Library Data records.

  2. The Size Code for this world is D, which is sometimes an indication of a Debris field, but in this case it refers to Size Code 13, a very large planet of approximately 21,000 km diameter. Due to the extremely large size of this planet and the density of its composition, the surface gravity is very extreme: more than 1.3 G (and according to some referees' calculations it may be as high as 2 G).
