This red star is 26.42 light years from Sol and has two rock core planets in close orbit. The system was surveyed early on in United Earth History and the first colonists (miners) arrived around 2196 OTT.

The system became Union in 2222 OTT and is represented as a system and not by planets.

Approximatley 4.7 million live and work here.

While mining is no longer the main focus, industry is still heavy industry oriented, with ore processing at the core.

The system is named after the United Earth surveyor first surveying the system.

The two planets are Cindy and Carla (named after James Bignell's daughters)

There is a class C space port on Carla. There is no space train connection.
