Mainworld Data

Sagan appears to be a near ideal colony world, but the presence of a high concentration of native microscopic lifeforms makes the world a hazardous place to live without a sealed suit.

History and Background

An IISS medical research base is actively developing vaccines and treatments to allow open habitation.

The Imperial Navy also maintains a small orbital facility, established to monitor the growing commercial tensions between Bolivar (Dagudashaag 0240) and the Amec Trade Protectorate.

World Starport (St)

Sagan 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.

• There is an associated Imperial Naval Base, hosting elements of the 75th Fleet.

• Anglic: One of the two official languages of the Third Imperium.
  • Galaach: An Ushran trade language derived from Anglic, widely spoken throughout the Shallows, Zeda and Ushra subsectors.
• Vilani: One of the two official languages of the Third Imperium.
