It is a member of Third Imperium in the Gadde Subsector of Dagudashaag Sector and in the Domain of Vland.

History and Background[edit]

An Imperial naval base is all that keeps this small lifeless ball of rock from abandonment. Laeris forms one of half-a-dozen bases within the Pukh-Shea cluster, and the Uumirsa Trail to rimward. The small community serves the naval personnel and the starport (which is subsidized by the Navy).

World Starport (St)[edit]

Laeris has a Class B Starport, a good quality installation which includes all the expected amenities including refined fuel for starships, brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing annual maintenance, overhauls and most kinds of repair, and construction of non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.
