Klantor Subsector is Subsector E of Astron Sector.
- It lies within Charted Space.
- It is a wild and remote wilderness.
Description / Specifications
Klantor Subsector is a unpopulated and undeveloped wilderness. Some worlds within the region have never had an intelligent being visit them.
- It forms part of the Longer Void, a large rift region.
- The resources of the subsector remain entirely untapped.
World Details: 1105
Detailed UWP data for all the worlds listed within the subsector can be retrieved from Astron Sector data files.
- The first listed world lying within the subsector occupies hex 0214.
- The last listed world lying within the subsector occupies hex 0816.
Astrographic Features & Trade Routes: 1105
The following astrographic and commercial data has been determined regarding Klantor Subsector:
- The subsector is a relatively low stellar density region.
- The brightest star is an unstable yellow subgiant lying within hex 0511.
- An unnamed cluster of stars lies across the central and trailing parts the subsector.
- Its rimward-trailing area forms part of the Longer Void, a large rift.
- No trade routes are noted as crossing the region.
Stellar Distribution
A basic map showing the distribution and size of stars within Klantor Subsector.
- The color corresponds to the visible color of the star, which links to its spectral classification.
- The size as shown indicates both the physical size of the object and its relative brightness.
(Chart sourced from Traveller Map).
Note that the stars as depicted are representative. Any star, no matter what its size, is a mere speck within the hex it occupies.
- Ordinary main sequence stars can barely be seen from even a hex away.
- Huge, intensely luminous giant stars can be seen from across the subsector and far beyond.
Rift Regions
Three rift area lies within the subsector: the spinward rift, the trailing bit, and the rimward void.
- They are considered to be part of The Gulfs, an extended region of the Idella Rift.

Locally at least, a rift is an astrographic concept based on Jump Drive performance.
The highest tech level commonly encountered out this Far Along (spinward of the Third Imperium) is TL–12, though a few worlds may be more advanced.
- This level of technology allows the routine use of up to Jump-3 drives.
- Areas that cannot be crossed by Jump-3-capable vessels are denoted as rifts.
World Listing: 1105
Comprehensive Second Survey data for all worlds lying within Klantor Subsector is available.
- The primary source material for all data is Traveller Map.
- Other sources may differ: some elements of the data may be contradictory or incorrect.
- Data is occasionally updated as new information becomes available.
- Scouting missions gathering reliable, verified data can receive substantial payment.
AAB library archives contain expanded data about the following systems:
Note that some Second Survey data, though only 40 years old, may already be out of date.
- Verified updated data is constantly sought.
Subsector Summary: 1105
Note that this section is awaiting an AAB Interal Records update.
History & Background / Dossier
Klantor Subsector is a remote backwater with almost no activity or development within its borders.
- None of the sixteen systems within the subsector are named: as such they don't appear on AAB expanded data records.
- Partial Second Survey UWP data can be retrieved from Astron Sector data files.
- Second Survey data, though only 40 years old, may already be out of date.
Polity Listing: 1105
No polities are known to exist within (or make any claim upon) the subsector.
Native Sophonts (NILs): 1105
No Native Intelligent Lifeforms (sophont species) are believed to have originated within this area.
Demographics: 1105
Very rarely, the following groups may be encountered:
