Jump map from Travellermap.com

Arukhi is a preindustrial, moderate population world with over a hundred million, but not yet at a billion sophonts in population size.

• As a preindustrial world, this planet cannot yet manufacture enough high-technology resources to support a modern, star-faring society. Having to import most manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
• It is a member of the Trae Aggregation in the Mumari Subsector of Trenchans Sector.
• This world supports a Scout Base, capable of handling exploration vessels.
