Jump map from Travellermap.com

Kishkeiim is a moderate population, non-agricultural and preindustrial, icy vacuum world, with over a hundred million, but not yet at a billion sophonts, which warrants hazardous environment precautions.

• Its surface is ice-capped with little or no atmosphere and nearly all of its water frozen.
• It is unable to produce quality foodstuffs and must import them.
• It is a world working toward being an industrial powerhouse but lacks an adequate workforce to do so at this time. Immigration is being encouraged and promoted. This world needs workers.
• It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Kaskii Subsector of Core Sector in the Domain of Sylea.
• This world has a colony at Kerliar.
