Prometheus

Galaxy: Civilized Space
Species: Neo-Terran
Population: 100,000's (Hundreds of Thousands)
--
Notable Locations: Aeschylus
Description: The planet upon which Neo-Terrans made first-contact with the Tribunal. Now populated by a variety of sapient species, the planet was founded on what was once the border of Tribunal space.Mostly covered in terraformed wilderness, there is a single major city that is a pilgrimage point for many Neo-Terrans.
Across the planet there are small offshoot colonies that have been founded by naturist Neo-Terrans. The planet is more or less maintained as a tourist destination, the only other major service provided is intergalactic transport. Another planet, Epimetheus was settled at the same time by the Tribunal and was the point from which they made contact with Neo-Terrans.
Prometheus is encircled by several moons, around one of which rotates a Neo-Terran satellite Aeschylus from which Neo-Terrans first detected alien life.
The plant is unique by its near-crossing rotation with another large planet in cycle of their shared star. The planets are predicted to collide in the next ten thousand years and so colonization efforts on Prometheus are minimal, but not restricted by any overbearing emergency law.
