New Iceland

__NOTOC__
New Iceland is a planet in the Kaus Borealis system. It is controlled by the Republic.
== Description ==
New Iceland is a perpetually hazy volcanic world, with a slightly caustic atmosphere but enough reserves of metal and petrochemicals to draw a large number of settlers. Some of those settlers also make a living as farmers, and a few well-developed factory towns produce goods for export to other worlds.
Many of the inhabitants wear dust masks to avoid letting the particulate matter from the volcanoes accumulate in their lungs.
The second paragraph is replaced with the following during the Free Worlds campaign. 
In the wake of their defeat in the south, the Navy has begun to set up a massive new base here on New Iceland, in order to allow them to continue to have a strong presence in this sector.
== Spaceport ==
Almost as soon as you stepped off your ship, your eyes began to sting. You try to breathe as shallowly as possible.
This port consists of a single large hangar, only big enough for two or three Bulk Freighters, plus some overflow landing pads and old rusted storage sheds outside. There is a small cafeteria, offering you a choice between two kinds of soup, some pre-made sandwiches, or the hot meal of the day.
