− | === | + | === Orbital Definitions === |
− | + | Each orbit should be understood as a generalized band into which an astronomic object such as a planet, belt, or related object may occupy. There are no set distances for each orbit or band, which are determined by the star or stars centered the system. | |

− | === | + | == History & Background (Dossier) == |
− | + | The IISS or its counterparts typically only have fairly comprehensive star charts for inner systems (inner zone, HZ and outer zone). Outer systems (remote and far) typically remain very roughly charted or nearly uncharted. | |
