SYZYGY SUBSECTOR (ca. 1117)

This subsector will always be remembered in history for containing the world which became the first meeting place between a Human from Terra (Solomani Rim 1827) and a Hiver from Guaran/Hive (Ricenden 0827). That world is Momentory (world).It is where a long-range exploration vessel from Guaran had to land to make emergency repairs. A mute Terran scout, Franklin Cheevers, was able to assist the Hiver/Gurvin team with their jump drive. Relations have been cordial ever since, with the recent Solomani tensions a low-point in that nearly 3,000 year history.

The Dolphins at Hrilll (world) (2834) were there before the Hivers came to Spica sector. They chose not to join the Federation and willingly accepted the Hiver Interdiction. This colony is twice removed from Terra, having been an off-shoot of Delphin Colon(y) Cerise (world)(2916 Aldebaran). For whatever reason, Dolphins don't pronounce the 'y'.

Yard Explorer (world) (2938) is the regional starship yard that Star Patterns Trading Company uses to produce its successful version of the 200 ton type-HX Hiver Explorer.

SYZYGY SUBSECTOR (ca. 1201) IN THE NEW ERA

This subsector is still recovering from the effects of the Collapse 70 years later. The best stronghold for Hiver technology was at Yard Explorer (world) (2938), today renamed to Wrengax, it now serves as the subsector capital. The oversight of the subsector by Federation government will probably transfer to ]]Kinyar Vi (world)]] (2539) by the end of the year when it is expected to return to Nest control. Kinyar VI is a prime candidate to upgrade the starport to class "A". Star Patterns Trading took over the operation of Shipsboat (world) (2532) after the government subsidized company that had run it, failed due to the Collapse. When the yard at Wrengax is restored, they are expected to have control of that system returned to them as well.

The Dolphins at Hrilll (world) (2834) were spared the effects of the AI Virus due to their practice of self-Interdiction. Their compassion for fellow sapients necessitated their participation with the Hiver Federation recovery. They are used as high hydrograph specialists for Federation Re-Development Agency first contact/recontact missions.

Momentory (world)(2632), is still a popular vacation spot for Hivers, and even more important for recreational relief for those who work hard to restore the Federation. The world had its first human visitors since the Collapse when, a few years ago, officials and dignitaries from the League of the New Dawn were on-hand to celebrate the founding of the League and to help the Hivers commemorate the 3,000 year anniversary of their first meeting with Humans.
