Jump map from Travellermap.com

Midias is an icy, barren world, with no overt population, government, or law level.

• Its surface is ice-capped with little or no atmosphere and nearly all of its water frozen.
• This world could be populated by a determined group if they had an inclination to do so...
• It is an unclaimed Non-Aligned world located in the Babadur Subsector of Theron Sector.

• This world is a "Twilight Zone World", a planet that is tidally-locked to its star. It has a hot side that permanently faces the star, a cold side that permanently faces away, and a narrow twilight zone in-between.
