Description

Scatter is named appropriately. With the exception of the worlds forming a main in its coreward stretch (and a single system to spinward associated with the Tsavo Reach), this subsector's stars are generally isolated. Traversing the region can be difficult for civilian traffic.

Summary

Scatter, subsector O of Crucis Margin, contains 20 worlds with an estimated combined population of 2 billion, a per capita income of Cr2,166, and a total economy of BCr4,690. These worlds originate an interstellar trade of BCr50 through 14 starports (1 Class A, 3 Class B, 5 Class C, 5 Class D) employing 7,055 people. Driving this interstellar trade are three Agricultural (Ag) worlds, no Non-Agricultural (Na) worlds, six Pre-Agricultural (Pa) worlds, five Pre-Industrial (Pi) worlds, no Rich (Ri) worlds, and no Industrial (In) worlds. The average technology level is 7 (with most between 5 and 8). The highest technology level is 10 at Krandin (Crucis Margin 1737) and Nieuw (Crucis Margin 2031).

Scatter, subsector O of Crucis Margin, contains 24 stars and 220 identified planets; 16 monostellar systems, four binary systems, no trinary systems, and no systems with four or more stars. 12 of the 20 systems (60%) have native gas giants. There are one Asteroid (As) belt, no Desert (De) worlds, three Garden (Ga) worlds, no Ice-capped (Ic) worlds, one Poor (Po) world, two Vacuum (Va) worlds, and one Water (Wa) or Ocean (Oc) world.
