System Data

The worlds of the system have been surveyed. They consist of:

Mainworld Data

Dojodo is little more than a baked rock with a little water ice buried deep beneath its surface.

Mainworld Size (S)

Dojodo is a Meso World between 7,200km and 8,800km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 0.4G and 0.57G. The horizon will appear about 4km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)

Dojodo has a pressure of less than 0.1 atmospheres which requires the use of a Vacc Suit. TL–8 or more advanced survival gear is required to settle this world.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)

Dojodo has 15-25% of its surface covered by ice, either in vast sheets or contained deep within craters or fractures on the surface. Wilderness refueling is possible. Water for the inhabitants can be got by mining and melting ice.

  • The surface of the world is composed of a crust of ice many kilometers thick.
  • Much of the surface is cratered and covered in thick layers of regolith and dust of meteoric origin, leaving only a part of the icy outer shell exposed.
  • Below the outer icy shell there may be a world-ocean of liquid water.

Mainworld Geography and Topography

No centrally held map of the world exists within AAB Library Data records.

History & Background (Dossier)

The base is staffed by the Scout Service's less able members, who are often left to rot here for several assignments in a row in order to keep them out of trouble. Dojodo is renowned as a punishment posting, and morale is very low, even among those staff who are competent and simply drew the short straw. Dojodo sees little or no traffic, and many off-duty scouts spend their time mapping the planetoid belt, simply for something to do.
