Mainworld Data[edit]

Mainworld Atmosphere[edit]

The atmosphere is primarily composed of methane and carbon dioxide, and great care must be taken to prevent the methane from mixing with the atmosphere within the habitats as a single spark could cause it to ignite. As a result, the long-term inhabitants of Ikiir have evolved a culture where open flame is considered a unique symbol of life and is worshiped in deep temples far beneath the surface.

History and Background[edit]

Ikiir was once a major chemical extraction site but was abandoned during the collapse of the Rule of Man.

The S'mrii ConSentiency annexed the planet in -4 and established a major research facility with the prime objective of working on low temperature superconductors. Over the centuries the research base expanded into a major manufacturing site; then in 677 new technologies rendered the entire manufactory complex obsolete.

World Starport[edit]

Ikiir has a Class A Starport, an excellent quality installation which includes all the expected amenities including refined fuel for starships, brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing annual maintenance, overhauls and other kinds of repair, and construction of both starships and non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.

Point of Interest: Superconductor Research Center[edit]

A large research facility has been built on Ikiir with the prime objective of working on low temperature superconductors.
