System Data

Although bypassed by the larger corporate freighters and liners, Unishpiir serves as the closest departure point to the minor trader wishing to bridge the two parsec gap between the Dagudashaag Main and the Vilani Main. It is known as the J-2 Amigu-Unlshplir Jump Bridge.

History & Background / Dossier

Unishpiir was first mentioned in -7710 in connection with a newly established Vilani company called Da'Gu'Dushaage, which manufactured life support equipment. The company apparently went into liquidation sometime prior to the Rule of Man but the Vilani colony on Unishpiir has remained. Today Unishpiir is the primary Dagudashaag Sector distribution point for most Makhidkarun entertainment programmes designed in Gushemege Sector. It also manufactures several models of hand computer and tri-vee consoles.

Unishpiir has a Class B Starport, a good quality installation which includes all the expected amenities including refined fuel for starships, brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing annual maintenance, overhauls and most kinds of repair, and construction of non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.
