Union System - M-0 Galaxy. Upward Sector - Sol Neighborhood

Four Rock type planets - Dim Red Dwarf

First surveyed for United Earth around 2109 OTT -

While none of the planets are within the Goldilocks zone, and none have native life, the system is still close to Sol.

First humans arriving were miners  and resource extractors. Mining camps grew to towns, and due to the relative close proximity to Earth and the resource hungry United Earth, the mining colonies became rich.

The frontier character did not last too long, as every luxury item could be ordered and it did not take long for deliveries.

The four planets are: Mr. Hot,  Dry Bone , Fkn-Cold and Colder Still.

Core world is Dry Bone.

Today there is a Class B space port (on Dry Bone) Space Train connection to Sol Hub, Space Bus connections and all Union installations.

Industry is still focused on heavy metal and heavy industries. Most facilities are underground.
