0803 Alphyxzane

0803 Alphyxzane B 521577-9 Gas Giant

Starport Type B - Alphyxzane is a base built by the Benxyzanik people from 0801 Benxyzan to establish a presence in this system. Their first priority was to build a starport and it is a quality installation, with an abundance of refined fuel available and excellent facilities for annual maintenance and overhaul of star ships. While most construction is used to create non-jump system defense boats, there is a planned upgrade to the facility as is being done to the starport on the home planet.

Planetary Size 5 - This is a medium sized planet about 5200 miles in diameter and it is has a low enough gravity that several steps have been taken to maintain strength and bone density.

Atmosphere Type 2 - The atmosphere is very thin and is tainted and requires filter to breath. A number of atmospheric compressors provide a breathable mix for the outpost.

Hydrographic Percentage 1 - This is a very dry desert world with no native life.

Population Size 5 - This base has a population of about 120,000 and is mostly volunteer.

Government Type 7 - Uncharacteristically this base currently has a number of different factions, some loyal to the home planet and some that are not.

Law Level 7 - Most personal weapons are allowed, but only law enforcement are permitted to use shotguns. However, most factions have managed to get their hands on most weapons including shotguns.

Technological Index 9 - One of the factions found some ruins near the base and it contained remnants of technology greater than what the home world possesses.

Notes - Of the nine competing factions, two have learned of this technology and are seeking to control it. Some have dreams of toppling the government of the home world. A showdown is looming in the future and one group thinks that they may have finally succeeded in warning the home planet. What they don't know is that loyal citizens of the home world now living on 0804 Cetaxyzine have recently found similar ruins in a previously unexplored area and the home world is busily studying it.
