Inex System
The
Inex Group lead the push into the small two star solar system in hopes of expanding its extensive research into fusion dynamics and propulsion systems. By doing so they have ensured a place in history for establishing humanity in one of the most hostile environments to date, losing fortunes of credits in failed colonization efforts before finally doing it right. This small system is home to a pair of cannibal of stars, one larger star overtaking and devouring a smaller star over the course of millions if not billions of years.
Planetary Colonies & their Satellites
System Statistics and Facts
- System Viability: Estimated 300 million years
Cannibal stars are violet spacial bodies and Stonehenge is a testament to that explosive fact. Once, planets stood here, but now existing as a litter of discarded asteroids and broken planetary matter, Stonehenge is colonized for lack of additional space in the system. Small bases dot the larger objects in this debris field and some intrepid souls have even tugged numerous small pieces together to form a interconnected network of small havens. Bored workers from the Leech Outpost frequent these hideaways.
- Protus: On the edge of the Stonehenge is a small planet that somehow survived the tug of its larger cousins which collided and died. However, the eruption of debris from the collision rained destruction down upon the world with such force that now it sits with seas of molten metal, stone, and superheated gas boiling across its surface.
Artificial Stations & Outposts
Otherwise known as the Leech Research Center, the outpost is currently the core of the Index system and home to the corporation that funded the system's colonization,
Inex Group. The artificial habitat, situated at the closest edge of the plasma chain that links the system's two stars, is slightly smaller than the
Sol's Lagrange stations but somehow manages to house just about as many people inside.
