Pyro System

Planetary Systems

The Pyro system is an unclaimed planetary system that consists of a K-type flare star, five terrestrial planets, and a gas giant. Discovered in SEY 2493 by Pyrotechnic Amalgamated, it was not claimed by the United Nations of Earth (UNE) due in part to the dangers surrounding its…

Fairo (Pyro 5d)

Moons

Fairo is the fourth moon from the gas giant Pyro V, Pyro system. A hotbed of seismic activity, Fairo experiences frequent earthquakes that disturb its deep oceans of brackish water. The moon has an unusual ecosystem that thrives both on the surface and under the sea, supported…

Adir (Pyro 5c)

Moons

Adir is the third moon from the gas giant Pyro V, Pyro system. Jagged mountains and rocky hills dominate its crater-ridden landscape. Because it lacks a protective atmosphere that would otherwise break apart most approaching celestial objects, its surface sees frequent impacts.…

Oso VI

Planets

Oso VI is a dwarf planet in the Oso system, and is the last planet from its star. Uniform in appearance, its surface is coated in tholin, a hydrocarbon sludge that colors the world dark red and covers up deep layers of methane and water ice. Like neighboring planet Oso V, it is…

Vatra (Pyro 5b)

Moons

Vatra is the second moon from the gas giant Pyro V, Pyro system. Its thick, high-pressure atmosphere of nitrogen and methane supports an ecosystem of plants that subsist on hydrocarbons instead of carbon dioxide. Some water is present on Vatra in the form of ice, but it is too…

Callisto (Sol 5d)

Moons

Callisto (Sol 5d) is a moon of Jupiter (Sol V), United Empire of Earth (UEE). Of all the celestial bodies in the Sol system, Callisto's surface is the most heavily cratered. Because it has never been geologically active, it is home to multiple sealed settlements and a handful of…

Vuur (Pyro 5f)

Moons

Vuur is the sixth moon from the gas giant Pyro V, Pyro system. Thanks to an increased greenhouse effect in its dense carbon dioxide atmosphere, it is unusually warm for a moon so distant from its sun. Its carbon-rich soil supports forms of vegetation that utilize crystalline…

Io (Sol 5a)

Moons

Io (Sol 5a) is a moon of Jupiter (Sol V), United Empire of Earth (UEE). Due to tidal heating and the presence of a subsurface ocean of molten and solid rock, Io is the most geologically active object in the Sol system. Armor manufacturer Caldera utilizes the surface of Io as a…

Ignis (Pyro 5a)

Moons

Ignis is the innermost moon of the gas giant Pyro V, Pyro system. The canyons and dry riverbeds on its surface suggest that liquid water once flowed there in the distant past. Its frigid average temperature and deadly atmosphere of sulfur dioxide creates an unfriendly…

Fuego (Pyro 5e)

Moons

Fuego is the fifth moon from the gas giant Pyro V, Pyro system. Relatively temperate but still cold, it has a mostly carbon dioxide atmosphere with small percentages of nitrogen, sulfur dioxide, and oxygen. High amounts of iron-sulfide in its soil gives its surface a yellow and…

Europa (Sol 5b)

Moons

Europa (Sol 5b) is a moon of Jupiter (Sol V), United Empire of Earth (UEE). Coated with a sheet of water ice that hides a brackish ocean, its surface is crisscrossed with vast cracks that appear when tidal heating induces too much stress upon it. In SEY 2431, single-celled…

Ellis 5b

Moons

Ellis 5b is the second moon of Noble (Ellis V), United Empire of Earth (UEE), and is tidally locked to the planet. Nearly three times larger than its sister moon Ellis 5a, the light reflected off its pristine white surface is sometimes bright enough that Ellis 5a becomes…

UEE Naval Flight Academy

Human · Education · Military · Locations

The United Empire of Earth Naval Flight Academy (UNFA) is a coeducational service academy located on MacArthur (Kilian V). Established in SEY 2632, it is one of the oldest of the United Empire of Earth's (UEE) service academies. It educates officers for commissioning into the…

Ellis 5a

Moons

Ellis 5a is the first moon of the planet Noble (Ellis V), United Empire of Earth (UEE). To the naked eye, it appears to be softly pink. In 2845, the prominent jewelry company Apgar's debuted a line of pink pearl necklaces inspired by Ellis 5a, made of pearls harvested from…

Gliese Belt Beta

Space

The Gliese belt beta is the second belt from the sun of the Gliese system, Banu Protectorate. Located between Nogo (Gliese IV) and Gliese V, it is packed with ancient outposts and abandoned rigs, left there from an earlier period in which resources were abundant. It is a popular…

Kiel VI

Planets

Kiel VI is a tiny protoplanet in the Kiel system, United Empire of Earth (UEE). During the formation of the system, it failed to accrete enough matter to become a planet but avoided getting subsumed into Kiel V. The farthest object from its sun, it completes its orbit roughly…

Ganymede (Sol 5c)

Moons

Ganymede (Sol 5c) is a moon of Jupiter (Sol V), United Empire of Earth (UEE). The largest moon in the Sol system, its diameter is greater than that of the planet Mercury (Sol I). Before Ganymede's subsurface ocean was explored in the 25th century SEY, it was popularly speculated…

Herschel Belt (Sol Belt Alpha)

Space

The Herschel belt (Sol belt alpha) is an asteroid belt in the Sol system, United Empire of Earth (UEE). Located between the orbits of Mars (Sol IV) and Jupiter (Sol V), it is where Humans first began to experiment with asteroid mining. Pure water ice harvested from the belt…
