History and Background[edit]

Gukhemuuka had been colonised continually from midway through the First Imperium until the -530s when the last settlement was wiped out, apparently by disease. The planet, due in large part to its lack of resources, then remained uncolonised until 1106 when the Free University of Ushra set up a small research colony to excavate the sites. They are currently examining the ruins of a First Imperium settlement that were only recently discovered.

World Starport (St)[edit]

Gukhemuuka has a Class D Starport, a poor quality installation which has few of the expected amenities. There is unrefined fuel for starships and a limited variety of ship provisions. There is no shipyard of any kind, but there may be parts and technical support for doing minor services and repair. Ports of this classification generally consist of only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.
