Garden Worlds



Gardenworlds are planets that can sustain standard human ( Nitrogen/Oxygen breathers) without extensive technological assistance (unprotected).

The Union Colonist and Settlement Bureau has developed a Garden world Classification chart, that determines the level of compatibility.

There are 7 Base Types and a grades from A to F. A= Pefect, F= Fail

Earth for examole is a Type 2A Gardenworld. While it is perfect in many regards, it does have tectonic activities, lifeforms and clima zones that can be dangerous to unprotected human life.

Only a few planets like Azure or Para-Para recieved the rare Type 1A classification.

Most planets fall under the Type 3D type.

Ulta, Nilfeheim and New Sweden are examples of Waterworlds (Ulta 4B, Nilfeheim 4D and New Sweden 4A)

Note that this Classification chart is not used by the Fleet or the Science Corps, but has found its way in daily conversations and of course is used by prospctive Settlers and Explorer - Survey crews.

Also note that Non Garden worlds are often also settled but are not reflected on this chart.
