Jump map from Travellermap.com

Wellington is a low-population hellworld with a population less than 10,000 sophonts struggling to survive in an inhospitable environment .

• Hellworlds often offer daily, and sometimes even hourly, life-threatening situations to their inhabitants.
• It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the New Islands Subsector of Reft Sector.

• This world was colonized by and is controlled from Esperanza (world).

Astrography and planetology

The colony in the Wellington system is little more than an outpost, and is mainly present to support the Jump-3 link through to Gloire.

History and background

Esperanza (Reft 0926) established a base in the Wellington system to find and exploit natural resources.

In the Regency, Wellington is an interdicted red zone, a dead world with no refueling sources. It is kept isolated while the Regency Quarantine Service checks the system for Virus infections.
