Mercury has seen major industrial developments since 22nd century.

## Planetary Properties

Mercury is one of the four terrestrial planets in the Solar System. its is also the smallest , with a radius of 2,439.7 km (1,516.0 mi). Mercury is also smaller than the largest natural satellites in the Solar System, Ganymede and Titan. Mercury have a solid silicate crust and a mantle overlying a solid, iron sulfide outer core layer, a deeper liquid core layer, and a solid inner core. Mercury's core is large and rich in iron.

### Geology

Mercury's surface is similar in appearance to that of the Moon, showing extensive mare-like plains and heavy cratering, indicating that it has been geologically inactive for billions of years. Mercury was heavily bombarded by comets and asteroids during and shortly following its formation 4.6 billion years ago, as well as during a possibly separate subsequent episode called the Late Heavy Bombardment that ended 3.8 billion years ago. During this period of intense crater formation, Mercury received impacts over its entire surface, facilitated by the lack of any atmosphere to slow impactors down. During this time Mercury was volcanically active; basins such as the Caloris Basin were filled by magma, producing smooth plains similar to the maria found on the Moon.

## Colonial Development

Mercury is the site of many strategic industries for Humanity. There are massive mainly automated mining operations of metals such as Titanium and Plutonium around the surface of the planet. The dark side of the planet is also home to the industries producing Anti-Matter. There is also a major cargo hub in its orbit transporting goods in and out of the Mercury sector. There is also a research outpost dedicated to the study and monitoring of the Sun.

## Characteristics

### Distance to Earth

0

The **Milky Way** is a 4-armed spiral galaxy, with the name describing the galaxy's appearance from Earth: a hazy band of light seen in the night sky formed from stars that cannot be individually distinguished by the naked eye. From Earth, the Milky Way appears as a band because its disk-shaped structure is viewed from within. Galileo Galilei first resolved the band of light into individual stars with his telescope in 1610. Until the early 1920s, most astronomers thought that the Milky Way contained all the stars in the Universe. Following the 1920 Great Debate between the astronomers Harlow Shapley and Heber Curtis, observations by Edwin Hubble showed that the Milky Way is just one of many galaxies.

The Galaxy contains more than four hundred billion categorized stars and is home to many life harboring bodies and sapient species such as Humans, Na'vi, Innosans, the now seemingly extinct The Architects and others.

There are several domed colonies in Ramirez's equator.
Biochemistry Types

**Biochemistry Types** are forms of biochemistry found in the discovered universe. For example, the kinds of living organisms on Earth all use carbon compounds for basic structural and metabolic functions, water as a solvent, and DNA or RNA to define and control their form. Other lifeforms discovered on other planets or moons, has been seen to have biochemistry that differs from the one on Earth; there are several types of organisms discovered with quite different chemistries-for instance, the life on 'Under Revision'.

The study of life-forms outside of earth and their "alternative" biochemistries is the topic of xenobiology, including what has already been discovered in extraterrestrial worlds and also about the other chemical behavior of various elements and compounds that can lead to new discoveries.

**Location:** Milky Way Galaxy/Local Cavity/Luyten's Star System

**World Category:** Frozen World

**Akira** is the ninth body orbiting **Luyten's Star** in the Luyten's Star System. Akira orbits the star at 190.46 AU every 922.34 Earth years and rotates around its axis backwards very slowly. Akira is barely holding in its orbits by its star due to its distance. The light from star is also so dim around Akira that makes Akira almost invisible in darkness of space. The planet is rich with natural resources and therefor is a candidate for planet cracking operation, although it has not seen any colonial developments due to its remoteness. Akira was discovered in 2093 by Hawking Space Telescope.

Cyborg

> "Existence must have meaning."
>
> **Cyborg**

## Background

Cyborg is one of the first humans to voluntarily undergo full body modification and the only one to survive it. Ravaged by a debilitating disease, her brain and spinal cord are the only human elements remaining. Over the years, she has been the center of U Corp's most secretive project -- development of the perfect weapon. However, as the virus broke out, U Corp researchers scattered before they could finish Cyborg's programming. Left with a broken mind and a deadly body, she wanders the island to find the meaning of her existence.

## How to Obtain

**Cyborg** medals can be obtained from Event Prizes and Sales. The **Cyborg** is a relatively difficult to obtain hero even when Events are active that contain her Medals. If you see a chance to obtain **Cyborg** medals, jump on it while you can.

**Groombridge 1618** is a star in the northern constellation Ursa Major. With an apparent visual magnitude of +6.6, it lies at or below the threshold of stars visible to the naked eye for an average observer. It is relatively close to Earth, at 15.88 light years. This is a main sequence star of spectral type K7.5 Ve, having just 67% of the Sun's mass. The system has no planets.

There is only a small Federation outpost in the orbit of the star running security checks in the neighboring star systems.
Oregon

Oregon used to be an ocean world during its genesis.

**Location:** Milky Way Galaxy/Local Cavity/Luyten's Star System

**Oregon** is the forth body and the second dwarf planet orbiting **Luyten's Star** in the Luyten's Star System. Oregon orbits the star in every 41.4 days and is Tidally Locked to star, meaning that one side is bombarded with heat while the other side sits in an eternal darkness. Oregon lacks any kind of atmosphere and is considered the most massive dwarf planet in the system. There are evidences of former liquid water oceans on the surface of the planet, but they are long gone, probably due to the loss of atmosphere. The planet's name was chosen by an A.I. Oregon was discovered in 2096 by Hawking Space Telescope.
Jawas

Jawas are an unidentified spacefaring species that used to be active in Perseus and Outer Arms of the Milky Way Galaxy. They seem to be much more advanced than any known spacefaring species in the galaxy. They are the main subject of study for xeno-archaeologists beside the Protheans and the Architects, specially for humans because their activities were centered around Orion Spur (the location of Solar System). They seem to be Humanoid with the same height as humans. They were named after one of the species in Star Wars by Archaeologists to make their identification easier.

Their presence has been discovered on many planets and moons such as Hesiod, Ourea and Fujin. There are evidences of their presence in the Solar System as well.

Their homeworld, which they call Shishmaak, is located at Cervantes System, which they called Vizhak.

## Name

In July 2014 the International Astronomical Union launched NameExoWorlds, a process for giving proper names to certain exoplanets and their host stars. The process involved public nomination and voting for the new names. In December 2015, the IAU announced the winning name was Rocinante for this planet. The winning name was submitted by the Planetario de Pamplona, Spain. Rocinante was the horse of the lead character of the novel *El Ingenioso Hidalgo Don Quixote de la Mancha*.
UGPS J0722−0540

**UGPS J072227.51−054031.2** (designation often abbreviated to **UGPS 0722−05** and designation **RP-01** in star navigation charts) is a a rogue planet located approximately 4.1 parsecs (13 light-years) from Earth. It was initially thought that it is a brown dwarf, but later observations with more advanced telescopes proved that it is a rogue planet.

The object is roughly the volume of Jupiter, but has 5.8 Jupiter masses (MJ). This would make it less massive than ε Indi Ba. The object's atmosphere is mainly composed of Hydrogen and Helium and contains Water Vapor and Methane and has a surface temperature of 470 kelvins.
Hector

Hector is a combination of Earth and Titan's features.

**Location:** Milky Way Galaxy/Local Cavity/Alpha Centauri System

**World Category:** Hydrocarbon Worlds

**Hector** is the second body orbiting star **Proxima** in the Alpha Centauri System. Hector orbits the star at 0.71 AU every 226.33 Earth days. Hector is tidally locked and and its distance to the star helped the planet to hold on to its atmosphere. Hector has Ethane oceans similar to Titan. The planet has four moons, all of them with a radius less than 50 km. Hector was discovered in 2027 by ESA using Ariel Telescope and named Proxima c but when ISV Bradbury entered the system as the first human interstellar vehicle, the name of the planet changed to Hector, a warrior in Trojan wars.

Thought Hydrocarbon mining is an option for colonial development of Hector, Proxima stellar winds prevents any mining operation on the planet considering Hector does not have any magnetic fields and therefor the surface is littered with radiation.
Sirius System

Despoina is one of several life bearing worlds of 61 Ursae Majoris System.

**Location:** Milky Way Galaxy/Local Cavity/61 Ursae Majoris System

**World Category:** Garden World

**Despoina** is the third body orbiting the star **61 Ursae Majoris** in the 61 Ursae Majoris System. Despoina orbits the star at 0.928 AU every 333.07 Earth days and rotates around its axis every 34.01 Earth hours. Despoina has a Nitrogen-Oxygen atmosphere with vast liquid water oceans. Its active core generates a strong magnetic field around the planet even stronger than Earth. Despoina can easily be seen from Kanaloa during day time (and vice versa). Due to its Excellent conditions, Despoina was quickly colonized by EUSI in late 24th century. Despoina was discovered in 2109 by ADST and first visited by Discovery One in 2342. The planet was named Despoina after its colonization.

The planet is the homeworld of Confederation of Independent Systems.

## Colonization

The planet was first charted by Discovery One starship in 2342 and was marked for colonization. In 2359, the first landing on the surface made sure that the planet is fully habitable for life on Earth. The first colony ships landed in 2389 the colonization officially began.

The system became one the very first stages of First Contact War in early 25th century and was quickly lost. Humanity finally won the war, by the hatred of Earth for not protecting the planet properly quickly escalated into a revolt which ended in the birth of Confederation of Independent Systems.
