Planet Junyo

TERRAIN: Water

TEMPERATURE: 4°C to 46°C

ESCAPE VELOCITY: 8.83 km/sec

Junyo is almost entirely covered by a deep ocean that remains liquid across the planet's entire surface due to the young, hot Shikoku sun. While initially dismissed as infeasible for further development, the impending collapse of fisheries throughout Kusari in 630 AS motivated the government to begin terraforming the planet using recently discovered Alien Organisms in order to jump-start the nascent ecology. Within 50 years, the planetary environment had been sufficiently altered to begin wide-scale production of Luxury Foods under the administration of Samura, a company that refuses to concede the market to the competing Liberty firm of Synth Foods.

## Rumors

* We bring Alien Organisms to this planet to help maintain our fish populations. Most of the Organisms we get are from Shinjuku.
* This planet is very young. We first overlooked these oceans as a place to raise fish because they were bereft of life. It would have taken a very long time for a food chain to develop here, that is, until we used Alien Organisms to jumpstart the process.
* The Oxygen and Water collected at this base is sent to every other base in this system by Samura shipping convoys. Though we ship basic supplies, we still fall under attack quite often. Even criminals must drink and breathe, only I wish did they did less of it.
* If you wish to go to New Tokyo, there is a way to line your pockets and travel there as well. Take a load of the Luxury Foods we produce here to the capitol. You may return with H-Fuel.
* In the Border Worlds on the eastern side of Kusari space is a planet where Alien Organisms are found in vast numbers. That planet, Kurile, is in dangerous space. If you believe yourself to be a good pilot, you could always bring them here.
* Most of the criminals that attack my ship in the Trade Lanes pour from the Saiun. It’s such a beautiful place that to be filled with so many loathsome creatures is very regrettable.
* Sometimes I will look across these waters and wonder what creatures might have eventually emerged from these depths had we not meddled with nature here. Sometimes it is better for a man to eat rice, but you didn't hear that from me.
* I used to be an important man in New Tokyo. My division was always ahead of schedule, and my team very efficient. One of my men was a terrible worker, so I fired him. Little did I know he was the cousin to a powerful executive.
* I will stare into the depths of the waters here. There is little I can do to escape this place. I miss New Tokyo dearly, and I want only to be back there. I hate fish; I can never completely wash its smell from my skin.
* The communications tower is very high in the center of the station. There are always many people nearby. Perhaps I could throw myself off of its highest point and end this suffering.

* Sometimes I will buy fish here and take it to my family. Once I forgot to take the fish out of my ship, and it stayed there overnight. No matter how much I clean, it always smells very bad in the cockpit. The other police call me Squid-san now; it is very embarrassing.
* The Golden C. are dangerous fanatics who do not care if they live or die. The Cardamine has made them mad. One tried to ram my ship. Fortunately, I dodged her attack and blew her craft to pieces.
* The Saiun Cloud was so beautiful to me when I was first assigned to this system. Now I look upon its painted scape with fear, for there the worst of Kusari lurks. Even now I'm sure pirates wait for the next appetizing convoy to pass.
* The Bounty Hunters are filth-ridden foreigners, but I must admit they are very good pilots. They kill many of the worst pirates in this system, and for that I am thankful. It should be Gaijin killing Gaijin anyway. Why must I risk my skin fighting smelly outsiders?
* Blood Dragons attacked the most recent convoy headed to Fuchu prison. We got the distress call and scrambled to help, but by the time we arrived the entire convoy was destroyed. Even the prisoner ship was demolished; there was no one left alive.
