Point of Interest: Research Station Gamma

After the late 300's settlement of this world, the Imperium constructed a separate facility staffed by its own personnel.

• This station grew until it was officially designated Research Station Gamma.

Gamma serves as a clearing house for unexplained phenomena.

• Within it are records of bizarre happenings and mysterious relics dating back tens or hundreds of millenia.
• Untranslated nonhuman accounts and strange engines predating the First Imperium await the person able to read or operate them.
• Many items in the station's collection are so odd that they are freely displayed to the public, although Tarin Sink's position within the Great Rift limits the number of visitors.
• Imperial researchers, completely baffled by these objects, hope that someday, someone will pass through the station who can shed some light on these mysteries.

History & Background (Dossier)

Tarin Sink is an Imperial client state and site of Corridor Research Station Gamma.

• The planet was colonized by nine extended families during the wave of spinward expansion in the late 300s.
• Most of Tarin Sink's modern inhabitants are their descendants.

World Starport

Tarin Sink has a Class D Starport, a poor quality installation which has few of the expected amenities. There is unrefined fuel for starships and a limited variety of ship provisions. There is no shipyard of any kind, but there may be parts and technical support for doing minor services and repair. Ports of this classification generally consist of only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.
