=== Point of Interest: Survey Anomaly ===
A [[IISS|Scout]] team first discovered the enigma hidden here in the early [[400s]]. While helping to compile the [[First Survey]], [[Lidia Besant]]'s geological team detected the enormous mass concentrations which lurk deep beneath the moon's surface. The phenomenon would have been strange enough if the small satellite had had a molten core. These masses, however, lay within a ball of cold, inactive rock. The geological knowledge of the day offered no explanation, and Besant put the moon on the [[IISS]]'s list of survey anomalies.

* More than 700 years later, [[geologist]]s still cannot explain the presence of these mass concentrations, which have been the subject of much speculation. The [[Imperial Navy]] favored a slightly more scientific hypothesis, however - one which identified the masses as deposits of superheavy elements - and consequently interdicted the system in [[690]]. The Navy consistently denies reports of any secret research being conducted in-system.
