This world was first explored by the [[IISS]] in the early [[400s]], when it was discovered the world contained enormous mass concentrations far beneath the surface. Despite almost 800 years of study, scientists still can not explain these concentrations, but speculation involves some artifacts of the [[Ancient]]s as well as deposits of [[superheavy element]]s. The system was interdicted in [[690]] and remains so to this day. The world is naturally the the subject of ongoing study. {{Page cite|name=The Regency Sourcebook|page=56}}

A [[IISS|Scout]] team first discovered the enigma hidden here in the early [[400s]]. While helping to compile the [[First Survey]], [[Lidia Besant]]'s geological team detected the enormous mass concentrations which lurk deep beneath the moon's surface. The phenomenon would have been strange enough if the small satellite had had a molten core. These masses, however, lay within a ball of cold, inactive rock. The geological knowledge of the day offered no explanation, and Besant put the moon on the [[IISS]]'s list of survey anomalies.

More than 700 years later, [[geologist]]s still cannot explain the presence of these mass concentrations, which have been the subject of much speculation. The [[Imperial Navy]] favored a slightly more scientific hypothesis, however - one which identified the masses as deposits of superheavy elements - and consequently interdicted the system in [[690]]. The Navy consistently denies reports of any secret research being conducted in-system.

Anomaly Five is a barren vacuum world world with no registered population or government. This world is designated a Red Zone, with an environment, laws, customs, life forms, or other conditions that make it extremely dangerous to visitors. Everyone is forbidden to travel here. It is a member of Third Imperium in the Sabine Subsector of Deneb Sector and in the Domain of Deneb.

Point of Interest: Survey Anomaly[edit]

This world was first explored by the IISS in the early 400s during the First Survey. Lidia Besant's geological team detected enormous mass concentrations deep beneath the moon's surface -- an anomaly made more baffling by the moon's cold, geologically inactive state. The phenomenon defied explanation at the time and was classified as a survey anomaly, hence the world name.

Despite more than 700 years of study, scientists still cannot account for the source or nature of these masses. Speculation ranges from remnants of Ancient technology to deposits of superheavy elements. The Imperial Navy, favoring the latter theory, placed the system under interdiction in 690, a status it maintains to this day. Officially, the Navy denies conducting any secret research in the area, though the world remains an active subject of scientific interest. [2]
