Point of Interest: Fulacin Starport

• The starport features ship construction and repair facilities, a Travellers' Aid Society hostel, and overhaul equipment.

Fulacinian Tainted Atmosphere

Fulacin's most noted feature is its standard density tainted atmosphere. Widespread taint in the form of heavy metal dust and oxides means that the atmosphere is unbreathable without a filter mask. The dust causes a wide variety of respiratory illnesses, and can cause carcinoma within years of exposure. This metal dust has also made Fulacin an an ideal location for use of MagnetoDynamics's several patents dealing with recovery of metal from atmospheric and oceanic suspension.

Fulacin Noted Fauna & Flora

Fulacin is well known for several of its native species:

• Fulacinian Groat: Fulacin is notable as the native world of the Groat, an herbivore prized for its shaggy hair and meat.
• Fulacinian Snow Cat, a carnivore and potentially agressive creature.
• Fulacinian Trapper, an octopodal carnivore/trapper, known for its aggressive behavior.

History-Era: Milieu 1120

In 1105 the discovery of a secret Zhodani base forced the Imperium to revoke the MagnetoDynamics charter and launch a major investigation into the activities of the company. The charter for the development of Fulacin was granted to Spinward Development.

Non-canon: In 1108, as part of the increased trust and cooperation between the Zhodani Consulate and the Imperium, the Zhodani revealed that they had established a secret base on Fulacin. It was opened up and converted into a state-of-the-art interactive museum that shows the history of the Frontier Wars from the Zhodani viewpoint. It is required visiting for any student of Frontier War history, and draws tourists from all over the Marches.

The museum contains a flame sculpture memorial to the Imperial and Zhodani undercover agents who died during the Frontier War period, which officially ended when Emperor Strephon ratified the Treaty of Quar on 000-1110.
