Skillet

__NOTOC__
Skillet is a planet in the Saiph system. It is controlled by the Republic.
== Description ==
Skillet is a sparsely populated planet whose red hills and canyonlands are strip mined for placer deposits of iron ore and precious metals, mostly to supply the needs of the shipyards in Betelgeuse. This world is also used for ranching, and even for growing corn in a few less arid regions. The weather is usually quite mild, although hot and dry; the only reasons so few people have settled here are because it is so remote, and because the mining and farming industries need far fewer human workers than machines.
== Spaceport ==
The spaceport mostly consists of a row of adobe warehouses, with tin roofs polished to mirror brightness to reflect the heat of the sun. Around the warehouses is a ring of concrete landing pads. Forklift trucks carrying pallets of iron and steel ingots weave their way in between men and women on horseback and others on foot. The air is hot, but too dry to feel oppressive.
== Shipyard ==
Skillet does not have a shipyard.
== Outfitter ==
Skillet does not have an outfitter.
== Information ==
* Landing here has no required reputation.
* Skillet has a tribute value of 600 and is defended by Small Republic Fleets.
