Haddox Subsector is Subsector H of Astron Sector.

• It lies within Charted Space.
• It is a remote but developing frontier.

Description / Specifications

Haddox Subsector is a lightly populated region with a number of settled worlds. Some of the more remote worlds within the region have never had an intelligent being visit them.

• The resources of the subsector are being exploited but remain largely untapped.

Astrographic Features & Trade Routes: 1105

The following astrographic and commercial data has been determined regarding Haddox Subsector:

• The subsector is a relatively low stellar density region.
• The brightest star is a white main sequence lying within hex 3212.
• The orange giant star lying within hex 2412 of Vantor Subsector, to spinward, is clearly visible.
• The Haddox Cluster, a cluster of stars centered on Haddox, lies within the spinward and central parts of the subsector.
  • It is the location of the Haddox Association.
• The subsector lies rimward of the Hudson Expanse, a large rift region.
  • Its systems comprise part of the Outer Loop, a ring of jump-3-distant systems that surround the Expanse.
• No trade routes are noted as crossing the region.
  • Haddox Association vessels may occasionally traverse the spinward parts of the subsector.

Stellar Distribution

A basic map showing the distribution and size of stars within Haddox Subsector.

• The color corresponds to the visible color of the star, which links to its spectral classification.
• The size as shown indicates both the physical size of the object and its relative brightness.

Note that the stars as depicted are representative. Any star, no matter what its size, is a mere speck within the hex it occupies.

• Ordinary main sequence stars can barely be seen from even a hex away.
• Huge, intensely luminous giant stars can be seen from across the subsector and far beyond.

Rift Regions

Three rift area lies within the subsector: the spinward rift, the trailing bit, and the rimward void.

• They are considered to be part of The Gulfs, an extended region of the Idella Rift.

Locally at least, a rift is an astrographic concept based on Jump Drive performance.

The highest tech level commonly encountered out this Far Along (spinward of the Third Imperium) is TL–12, though a few worlds may be more advanced.

• This level of technology allows the routine use of up to Jump-3 drives.
• Areas that cannot be crossed by Jump-3-capable vessels are denoted as rifts.

World Listing: 1105

Comprehensive Second Survey data for all worlds lying within Haddox Subsector is available.

• The primary source material for all data is Traveller Map.
• Other sources may differ: some elements of the data may be contradictory or incorrect.
• Data is occasionally updated as new information becomes available.
• Scouting missions gathering reliable, verified data can receive substantial payment.

AAB library archives contain expanded data about the following systems:
