Jump map from Travellermap.com

Kukhvu is a ring of many small worldlets (planetoids AKA an "asteroid belt"), not capable of retaining an atmosphere or water, and nonindustrial in nature.

• 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.
• The worldlets require extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society.
• It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by Vargr sophonts located in the Zoghz Subsector of Gvurrdon Sector.

• Although politically independent, it is part of Saeknouth Dependency territory.

History & Background (Dossier)

Kukhvu is a high-tech orbital facility that was built shortly after the Saeknouth Dependency was established, in order to serve as a shipyard for that government. Since its construction it has been upgraded several times in response to new advances in technology. In addition to constructing and repairing the mainstay vessels of the Saeknouth navy, new designs are also prototyped here (many of which originate on Uekongull).

World Military

Kukhvu is defended by a small fleet and a substantial defence grid. Many of the ships being worked on can also be called into service if need be.
