Hermes

__NOTOC__
Hermes is a planet in the Capella system. It is controlled by the Republic.
== Description ==
No one is permitted to settle on Hermes without a government permit. It is a sparsely populated world, mostly used for medical research and development - including some research that, if the rumors are true, are carried out here in isolation so that if something goes wrong, entire districts can be quarantined or even "sterilized" by orbital bombardment.
The landscape is nondescript, mostly rolling plains and forests. The oceans are relatively small, and as a result it is a somewhat dry planet.
== Spaceport ==
The spaceport is far removed from any of this world's cities. It consists of a single, ring-shaped building; the docking bays open onto the central atrium, which visiting ships fly through to reach them. Industrial strength ultraviolet lasers are mounted on turrets throughout the atrium, and fire automatically at entering and departing ships to sterilize them. Once you land, the docking bay is hermetically sealed. Based on the precautions they are taking, you find yourself wanting to spend as little time as possible breathing the air here.
