Jump map from Travellermap.com

Gijon is a nonindustrial, pre-rich desert world with no free-standing water.

• It still lacks adequate population or other means to expand its economy to a rich status.
• It requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. Having to import most manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
• It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Peril’s Edge Subsector of Crucis Margin Sector.

Description

History & Background (Dossier)

In this world's dense atmosphere, storms are frequent and fierce. A Mining Station has exploited a large deposit of rare earth minerals, and a few hardy prospectors seek out and work smaller deposits. Water is processed from hydrous minerals for life support purposes and fuel manufacture.

World Starport (Sp)

Gijon 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.

Population

600,000.
