UX-11 IX

The ninth planet in the UX-11 System is habitable but currently only holds microbial life. It can be very cold on the surface.

Because of high obliquity (exceeding the 54° threshold), the equator is cooler, on average, than the poles of the planet and the changing of the seasons brings extreme climate change.

In YE 34, the YSS Eucharis visited the system and deployed a Orbital Geological Survey Platform in orbit of this planet.

In YE 35 the Scientific Studies Service (SSS) deployed a Ke-P6-01a Bisen Lighthouse on the surface of the planet at the request of the Star Army of Yamatai.

The Yamatai Star Empire placed an orbital communications network of Emrys Satellites around this planet in YE 36.

In YE 36, this planet became part of the PAINT public transportation system and has a Tenba that regularly visits and provides passenger flights to Shinjuku Starport on Hanako's World. Trinary Star Shipping operates a small storefront at the PAINT station.

In YE 41, this planet was conquered by forces from the Interstellar Kingdom Of Kuvexia during the Kuvexian Invasion of YE 41.

Item Drop

In YE 34 Hanako purchased a “grab bag” bulk salvage from an unknown supplier which was dead dropped on this planet. Though most were picked up by the YSS Eucharis1) – including the retrieval of two Elysian slave girls, an Occestan male Lorath in cryo-freeze, and most notably a derelict Ayana-Class Escort – some of the cache was left behind on the icy world.
