Jump map from Travellermap.com

Gorakpur is a ring of many small worldlets (planetoids AKA an "asteroid belt"), not capable of retaining an atmosphere or water, and is also a low-population vacuum environment with a population of less than 10,000 sophonts, warranting hazardous environment precautions.

• Life in a vacuum requires great discipline. After all, it only takes one forgotten seal on a vacuum suit to spell death. Those who survive tend to be very methodically-minded and attentive to small detail.
• It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Khavle Subsector of Diaspora Sector in the Domain of Sol.
• This is a "high technology" world with technology achievements at, near, or above the standard for Charted Space.
