Placer

__NOTOC__
Placer is a planet in the Mirach system. It is controlled by the Syndicate.
== Description ==
Placer is uninhabited aside from one small mining outpost; the atmosphere contains uncomfortable levels of ammonia and sulfur dioxide. To avoid respiratory injury from long term exposure, those who live here must wear breathing gear when they leave their pressurized homes and mine shafts.
Several scientific experiments over the last few centuries have sought to introduce microorganisms that would break down the harmful chemicals and transform the atmosphere to make it safer for human beings to breathe, but none have been successful.
== Spaceport ==
The port consists of a large atmospheric dome, with landing pads and airlocks around the periphery. Although brief exposure to the air is not considered harmful, you find yourself holding your breath as you run from your ship to the airlock.
Inside the dome, hanging gardens and open park land create a much more hospitable place, but the spaceport is nearly deserted, aside from one small pub that seems to be full of mine workers whose shift has just ended.
== Shipyard ==
Placer does not have a shipyard.
== Outfitter ==
Placer does not have an outfitter.
== Information ==
* Placer has a tribute value of 300 and is defended by Small Syndicate Fleets.
* Landing here has no required reputation.
