The largest planet in the system, and the most highly populated (although its population is still miniscule compared to more settled planets). Series of large habitat domes dot the surface. The largest of these, and the de-facto centre of the population is Derrick Dome. Series of high speed railways dot the surface, taking goods and people between the domes.
