Jump map from Travellermap.com

Ferot is a poor, nonindustrial world.

• As a nonindustrial world, it requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. The need to import most manufactured and high technology goods drives the price of these goods up in the open market.
• This world has few prospects for economic development.
• It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Bunkeria Subsector of Core Sector in the Domain of Sylea.

History & Background (Dossier)

Prior to the Third Imperium, this world was a member of the Interstellar Confederacy.

World Starport

Ferot has a Class B Starport, a good 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 most kinds of repair, and construction of non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.
