GM Notes about this place

Conditions/Environment

Nexus is more properly referred to as Nexus-A XII-G, as it is the 6th moon of the 12th planet around its primary star, an F6V. None of the other bodies have official names, so the system is referred to as Nexus, the primary star as Nexus-A, the distant M9 V binary as Nexus-B, and planets numbered according to the usual default nomenclature (see System Astrography.

Nexus has a Frozen climate, has surface gravity of 0.377 G, has Trace atmosphere, and no surface water or ice. The surface is rocky, with fine dust in places from impacts by smaller bodies. There is no natural biosphere.

Starport and Transport Infrastructure

Nexus has a Class B Starport, including highport facilities in orbit. Both facilities have both refined and unrefined fuel for sale, skimmed from the gas giant's atmosphere by a trio of 100-ton fuel skimmers based at the downport, where the fuel refinery is located. Good quality TL 11 repair and maintenance facilities are available at both Nexus-High and Nexus-Down. Gravity inside the starport buildings is maintained at 1 G by means of grav plates in the floor, as is common throughout the inhabited parts of Nexus. The Starport has personal grav vehicles for rent, and there is regularly scheduled passenger/freight service by grav transport to other facilities on the surface of the moon.
