Hergan is a ring of many small worldlets (planetoids AKA an "asteroid belt"), not capable of retaining an atmosphere or water, and barren in nature with no overt population, government, or law level.
- These worldlets would warrant hazardous environment precautions if anyone lived here.
- They could be populated if anyone had an inclination to do so...
- It is an unclaimed Non-Aligned world located in the Cauldron Subsector of Cauldron Sector.
- This dangerous world is designated an Amber Zone with an environment, laws, customs, life forms, or other conditions make it dangerous to visitors.
Description (Astrography & Planetology)[edit]
The Hergan system was officially surveyed by the University of Tal Varisa Deep Sky Program.
- The results of the survey are available as the DSP Listing, a comprehensive star catalog first published in 5550AD.

It is a still-forming protoplanet. It is a late-stage protoplanet. (still in the process of formation). (accretion disks). (collapsing accretion disks).
- x1 secondary rocky worlds.
- x1 planetoid belt.
- x1 gas giants.
Mainworld Data[edit]
Limited data is available about the body nominated as the mainworld. All of the data has been gathered over centuries of remote observation.
Mainworld Size (S)[edit]
This world
Mainworld Atmosphere (A)[edit]
