Zo is my MTU replacement for Pixie from the Kinunir. It's UWP is: B100595-9. Meaning:
- Starport B - a good facility with refined fuel and capable of starship maintenance
- Size 1 - a very small planet, with just 0.122 G
- Atmosphere 0 - a vacuum world
- Hyrdographics 0 - no standing water
- Population 5 - 80,000 people call this place home for some reason.
- Government 9 - Captured government. Another Imperial operated place, primarily because of the Gash in orbit above
- Law Level 5 - personal concealable weapons prohibited
- TL 9 - early interstellar.
A good question is: where does the fuel come from as the system has no gas giants, planetoid belt nor any liquid oceans? We're going to lean into deep ice caves under the crust. A large chunk of the population deals with mining. Another TL-9 system, so we'll have some next-gen domed habitats, and maybe cave dwellers. The advantage of underground ice deposits is we can also use that as the source of air. TL-9 is not that much more advanced than us.
The starport has a mix of above ground pads and elevator pads. Similar to Space:1999, there are smaller pads that can take ships and shuttles up to 100 tons below the surface.
Worlds without atmosphere nor liquid oceans are a bit difficult to map. I used the mars coloration after trying a few variations. Dust plains or something like that, and some small elevations. I've added 1 other planet to the system, just a tad larger than Zo itself. The habitable zone for a K9 star is in orbit 12, which is 307 AU out! The math works out to 1 year on Zo = √307^3 / 5 = 2405 years! Not that I use jump shadows in MTU, but if I did it would not really change much for any visitors.
