Asura System

The Asura system is located very near one of the larger nebula to the galactic south of the Yugumo Cluster. It's 20ly from Jiyuu, and a burgeoning system of commerce that also includes tours of what many locals refer to as the 'Ayumi Nebula' that dominates local space. The system's star is on the hotter end of most main sequence G stars, so most planets that are hospitable are farther away from the star.

Leo Star Fortress is stationed in this system.

This is the system's capital planet, the citizens are still trying to expand smaller colonies to fit more people as it's one of the more popular planets to live on outside of the Yugumo cluster. Tourism used to be a popular industry, since one can be on the beach, watch the rings, and visit the nebula all in one day. One city is on the shortlist for the region's capital building. Most of the citizens who survived the death of the UOC have split into factions, or been polarized into groups and communities based on race, creed, or employment.

It is also part of the PAINT mass transportation system and has a terminal operated by Yugumo Corporation, offering flights to Jiyuu Fleet Depot, Jiyuu III every 5 hours.

• Type: Terrestrial Planet ~Temperate / Desert
• Colonies: Leadville, Aoyama, Death Waste Rim
• Population: 253,510,266 Civilian and Military
• Other uses: Military Center for the System, has largely not been explored -
• Moons: IshikawaIVa-c

This is the second inhabitable planet in the system, though very little is known about most of it so far. Most colonies are in the temperate areass, as much of the planet is essentially a desert. Terraforming companies might find interest in here once the strange rumours about the planet are allayed.

• Type: Asteroid Belt
• Other uses: Exploration incomplete

Heavy mining potential, requires exploration. Heavy industries are still vying for the rights.

• Type: Gas Giant
• Colonies: None-possible on moons
• Population: -None-unexplored
• Other uses: Military Stations
• Moons: AsuraVa-AsuraVL

A giant of primarily darker shades of gas such as rich cobalt and others, this is sometimes a stop for cruises overnight when the nebula isn't an option. The moons are yet unexplored, but most initial surveys agree some are habitable.

• Type: Ice Giant
• Other uses: Exploration Ongoing

While a large planet, it is primarily caked in very thick, and inhabitable layers of ice.

• Type: Asteroid Belt
• Other uses: Not Explored

• Type: Gas planet
• Other uses: Possible Terraforming - Exploration needed
• Moons: 12 Small moons, some fit for stable colonies

• Type: Gas planet
• Other uses: Possible Terraforming - Exploration needed
• Special: Brilliant colours, possible gas miner station

• Type: Gas planet
• Other uses: Possible Terraforming - Exploration needed
• Special: 25 small moons, 4 large

• Type: Ice Planet
• Radius: 184.91 AU
• Special: Rumours of strange patterns in the ice. Saiga Psychogenetics Research Laboratories operates a cold research biotech facility here.
