Emerald III



A GWC 1D/E planet in the Emerald Star System entirely owned and used by the Union Science Corps Exploration and Survey Division for field training their Exploration and Survey crews. It is nick-named “Early Earth” as it is very much like Triassic/Jurassic Earth is thought to be.

Emerald III’s climate averages roughly 7 to 10 percent hotter than Earth and is three times as tectonically and volcanically active, making it unsuitable for colonization. Its flora regions range from tropical forests to arctic tundra. There are no “giant dinosaur-like” fauna, but several species are aggressive enough to attack lone humans (AL 6).
