Saturn is a barren fluid hellworld with oceans consisting of heavily contaminated water or a substance such as ammonia, methane, hydrocarbons, or other exotic liquid.

  • This world has no overt population, government, or law level.
  • Hellworlds often offer daily, and sometimes hourly, life-threatening situations to their inhabitants.
  • This world could be populated if anyone had an inclination to do so...
  • This world has a research station engaged in the scientific pursuit of knowledge.
  • It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Sol Subsector of Solomani Rim Sector in the Domain of Sol.

Description / Astrography & Planetology[edit]

Saturn is a large gas giant in the Terran system in Sol Subsector of the Solomani Rim.

Terra /Sol has a solitary primary star.

System Data[edit]

The primary of the Terra system is Sol, an ordinary yellow main sequence star. It has a luminosity of 1 Sol, a mass of 1 Sol, and a diameter of 1.391 million km. Sol retains a family of four inner rocky worlds, a stony planetoid belt, and four outer gas giant worlds. The Kuiper Belt, an outer icy planetoid belt, exists at the system fringe but is rarely counted as a distinct world, despite containing a number of significant bodies. The system is named for Terra, the mainworld, the third world out from the star and orbiting within its habitable zone.
