Jump map from Travellermap.com

Sarappa 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...
• It is an unclaimed Non-Aligned world located in the Heart Subsector of Cauldron Sector.

Description (Astrography & Planetology)

The Sarappa system was officially surveyed by the University of Tal Varisa Deep Sky Program.

• The results of the survey are available as the DSP Listing, a comprehensive star catalog first published in 5550AD.
• The system lies within the Cauldron Nebula.

System Data

The worlds of the two systems have been remotely surveyed. They consist of:

• The mainworld.
• x2 secondary rocky worlds.
• x3 planetoid belt.

Mainworld Data

Limited data is available about the body nominated as the mainworld. All of the data has been gathered over centuries of remote observation.

Mainworld Size (S)

This world is an Asterioid Belt or Planetoid Belt consisting of a few very large objects with diameters of hundreds of kilometers, thousands of bodies of a few kilometers in diameter, and millions of smaller objects. Asteroid Belt is used when the belt is the mainworld of a system. Planetoid Belt refers to any non-mainworld belt within a system.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)

This world has a pressure of less than 0.001 atmospheres which requires the use of a Vacc Suit. TL–8 or more advanced survival gear is required to settle this world.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)

This world has no free-standing water or ice on the surface. Wilderness refueling isn't possible on this world. Water for the inhabitants needs to be imported and extensively recycled. These worlds are classified Desert World or a Hell World depending on their atmosphere.

Satellites:

None.
