Mechane Cluster

An astrographical feature in the Dark Nebula Sector.

This is a small but historically important grouping of worlds located in the Khtoiakta and Kimson's Stand subsectors.

History

The cluster is notable for Earltras (Dark Nebula 2527), a system known originally by the name of its primary, Mechane. Earltras was settled around -700 by Terran refugees from the Mizah Cluster and beyond, as the Aslan Border Wars drove Terrans out of worlds deeper in Aslan space. By -500 the Aslan claimed most of the cluster, but the Human populations proved difficult to assimilate.

Earltras was captured by worlds from the Solomani Autonomous Region during the War of Kimson's Stand in 832. The other worlds of the cluster remain with the Aslan Hierate.
