History and Background
Hellas was unpopulated until a survey by the Xenobiology unit of the Free University of Ushra in 677 identified Fillaslopu as a potential valuable food source. The success of the pilot farms ensured the influx of prospective farmers who set about trying to tame the frozen plains of Hellas.
The main city on Hellas, Kendricks-Alaal, developed around an atmospheric terraforming tower which was built to remove a sulphur taint from the atmosphere. The Tower was later decommissioned, stripped of the terraforming machinery, and refitted as a residential area. It also serves as an atmospheric and environmental monitoring station, taking readings from the immediate locale and receiving data from a series of remote sensing satellites.

Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.
