New Ganymede is a barren desert world with little surface water and an unpleasant atmosphere. The planet is at the edge of the [[Hyades Cluster]]. The high winds and frequent dust storms often obscure the sky for days at a time, but the many and plentiful radioactive surface ore deposits make New Ganymede one of the most important mining worlds within the [[Taurian Concordat]]. The planet's few concentrations of surface waters are principle concentrated in southern latitudes.  Planet's semi-permenant garrison forces are normally stationed by these highly valuable resources.

Owner History

Planetary Info

New Ganymede is a barren desert world with little surface water and an unpleasant atmosphere. The planet is at the edge of the Hyades Cluster. The high winds and frequent dust storms often obscure the sky for days at a time, but the many and plentiful radioactive surface ore deposits make New Ganymede one of the most important mining worlds within the Taurian Concordat. The planet's few concentrations of surface water are mostly concentrated in southern latitudes. The planet's semi-permanent garrison forces are normally stationed by these highly valuable resources.

As of 3028, New Ganymede was home to the 1st Battalion of the Pleiades Hussars who were stationed here to protect both the miners and the valuable extractors. New Ganymede is also home to the Concordat's desert warfare training facility in the northern polar regions.[1]
