System Data

The worlds of the system have been surveyed. They consist of:

• The mainworld.
• x4 secondary rocky worlds.
• x2 planetoid belts.
• x5 gas giants.

Mainworld Data

The mainworld orbits within the star's Habitable Zone.

• It lies within the zone's colder outer H- region.
• It receives relatively low levels of stellar energy.

Mainworld Size (S)

Veskric is a Small World between 4,000km and 5,600km in diameter. The world has low gravity between 0.24G and 0.34G. The horizon will appear about 3km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)

Veskric has a pressure of 0.10 to 0.42 atmospheres. The very thin pressures require a respirator or Oxygen Mask. TL–5 or more advanced survival gear is required to settle this world.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)

Veskric has 45-55% of its surface covered by liquid water. Wilderness refueling is possible.

Satellites:

Veskric retains a close, relatively large, very thin atmosphere moon.

• The worlds orbit once every few days.

Mainworld Geography and Topography

No centrally held map of the world exists within AAB Library Data records.

• Locally, detailed maps may be available.
• Verified updated charts are constantly sought.
• Detailed survey data commands premium prices.

(Placeholder chart, predominantly dry world.)

Native Lifeforms

Primitive, specialized native life filling a few specific ecological niches. Its metabolic functions help regulate the process of atmospheric renewal.

History & Background (Dossier)

The system is a frontier, a wild and lonely place that only occasionally sees visitors. Many of the planets and moons within it have ever have had an intelligent being visit them.

• Information about the system is limited.
• The resources of the system are largely untapped.

Note that social data, though only 40 years old, may be out of date: previously undocumented groups may now inhabit the system and maintain their own culture, forms of government, and systems of law.

• Verified updated data is constantly sought.

Veskric is the furthest coreward system on the Korsumug Main. It is occasionally visited by the forces of the Astron Frontier Patrol.
