Nome

(Planet in the Barrow system – for the Earth community see Nome, Alaska )

Union Planet



Nome is the first planet in the Barrow System. It is a barren cold and lifeless planet. Close to its sun with extreme surface temperatures reaching up to 800 degrees on the C scale.

Would it not been for the fact that the Barrow system was one of the star systems in the Union Corridor (also known as the Union Cul de Sac ) Nome would have been a little mining community at most. But due to its position so close to GC and Kermac space it had been heavily developed by the Union and like the other planets it was officially just a mining community.

It became a POW camp where prisoners of the GC were held during the many years of conflict between Union and GC. [1]

It also became a distinct research facility for Union captured Kermac tech.

The planet does sport a big mining and smelting industrial community and is a major producer of lead, gold and other heavy metals. The planet is rich in Uranium and a source for Polonium and Radium.

The main city “Kotzebue” is home to about 2 million and the entire planet has a population of about 3 million individuals.

It's claim to fame is the first Union Kermac Colony founded by refugees and Kermac escaping their own government oppression.

The existence of this Colony was kept quiet by the Union government due to the strong anti Kermac sentiment. The Kermac refugees were allowed to become unrestricted Union Citizens only after 5059





[1]As of 5060 it features a Kermac Museum and the Kermac Scare Park ( A GC themed Amusement park)
