Jump map from Travellermap.com

Earthstone is a pre-agricultural and nonindustrial world lacking adequate development for its economy to become prosperous.

• As a nonindustrial world, it requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. The need to import most manufactured and high technology goods drives the price of these goods up in the open market.
• This dangerous world is designated an Amber Zone with an environment, laws, customs, life forms, or other conditions that make it dangerous to visitors.
• It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Shimmer Subsector of Massilia Sector in the Domain of Sylea.
• This world has an Imperial Scout base, capable of handling IISS starships and personnel.
