History & Background (Dossier)
Delphi Sector receives much coreward-rimward interstellar traffic, but little spinward-trailing commerce due to the presence of the Delphi Rift. Even with this great barrier, much traffic flows in through the Rimward Hub region of the Greater Delphi Cluster, a line of worlds leading to spinward-trailing along the rimward edge of the Rift. The Arm, however, sees little of these benefits.
High cargo capacity, low jump rating vessels move along the Arm, carrying vast amounts of goods and commodities between its member worlds.
Worlds & Sectors / Astrography

- Data is occasionally updated as new information becomes available.
AAB library archives contain expanded data about the following systems:

Note that some Second Survey data, though only 40 years old, may already be out of date.
- Scouting missions gathering reliable, verified data can receive substantial payment.
