Jump map from Travellermap.com

Pollux is a ring of many small worldlets (planetoids AKA an "asteroid belt"), not capable of retaining an atmosphere or water, and barren in nature with no overt population, government, or law level.

• These worldlets would warrant hazardous environment precautions if anyone lived here.
• They could be populated if anyone had an inclination to do so...
• This is a "forbidden" world designated as a Red Zone with an environment, laws, customs, life forms, or other conditions that make it extremely dangerous to visitors. Everyone is forbidden to travel here.
• This is a hot world, with a climate of high temperatures.
• It is a member of the Solomani Confederation in the Gemini Subsector of Solomani Rim Sector.

Description (Astrography & Planetology)

The Pollux asteroid belt is little more than drifting gravel making commercial exploitation unprofitable.

• The system is unvisited, uninhabited, and almost completely unexplored.

Pollux has a solitary primary star.
