DB5-922 is a barren fluid world with oceans consisting of heavily contaminated water or a substance such as ammonia, methane, hydrocarbons, or other exotic liquid.
- This world has no overt population, government, or law level.
- This world could be populated if anyone had an inclination to do so...
- It is an unclaimed Non-Aligned world located in the Muscida Subsector of Canopus Sector.
- This world is a "Twilight Zone World", a planet that is tidally-locked to its star. It has a hot side that permanently faces the star, a cold side that permanently faces away, and a narrow twilight zone in-between.
- It is a member of the Cornell Trace.
- It has also been known as Ab5-922.

- The mainworld.
- x10 secondary rocky worlds.
- x1 gas giant.
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.
- It experiences low temperatures.
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.

- ↑ 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).
