Mogok is a nonindustrial vacuum world, which warrants hazardous environment precautions.
- Life in a vacuum requires great discipline. After all, it only takes one forgotten seal on a vacuum suit to spell death. Those who survive tend to be very methodically-minded and attentive to small detail.
- As a nonindustrial world, it requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. The need to import most manufactured and high technology goods drives the price of these goods up in the open market.
- It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Gaussi Subsector of Zarushagar Sector in the Domain of Ilelish.
- It is a part of the Victorian Arm region of the Greater Massilia Main.
- It orbits the secondary star.
- This world was once known as Australia.

System Data[2]
The worlds of the system have been surveyed. They consist of:
- The mainworld, orbiting the system's small red secondary star.
- x9 secondary rocky worlds.
- Four orbit within the primary star's habitable zone.
- The innermost has a trace atmosphere, the second has an insidious atmosphere made up of corrosive gases, the third has a dense atmosphere that can sustain conventional life, while the fourth has a very thin atmosphere with a very low oxygen taint. All four worlds, flexed and pulled by one another's gravity, exhibit intense geological activity.
- x2 gas giants.
- The system also contains over 70 moons.
Mainworld Data
Mogok orbits the system's secondary red main sequence star.
Mainworld Size (S)
Mogok is a Small World between 2,400km and 4,000km in diameter. The world has low gravity between 0.1G and 0.17G. The horizon will appear about 2.5km away.
Mainworld Atmosphere (A)
Mogok has a pressure of less than 0.001 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)
Mogok has no free-standing water or ice on the surface. Wilderness refueling isn't possible on this world. Water for the inhabitants needs to be imported and extensively recycled. These worlds are classified Desert World or a Hell World depending on their atmosphere.
Mainworld Geography and Topography
No centrally held map of the world exists within AAB Library Data records.
