History & Background (Dossier)

A low-population Imperial world in the Lunion Subsector of the Spinward Marches.

• Sharrip population consists of the minimal support staff for the starport.
• In 149 the planet is the subject of a terraforming project aimed at turning the atmosphere into a breathable one by seeding the planet with specially tailored plankton-like vegetation.
• By 1047 the project was far enough ahead that an unprotected human can breathe the air - it just isn't very pleasant - and the project advanced to the next stage, that of establishing plant life on land.
