Epsilon Eridani

Epsilon Eridani is a system, approximately 10.5 light-years from Sol, with an orange star at it's center. Two planets are present: a rocky ball named Ligures, and a small but super-dense gas giant Umbri, orbit the orange sun. Ligures has little atmosphere, and is currently being terraformed by colonists. Umbri is mined for supermatter. The system also contains numerous asteroid belts, with a high abundance of plasma.

The system and the surrounding sector of space is not claimed as the territory of any government, but is dominated by Nanotrasen. NT maintains a shoot-on-sight policy for any warship entering without authorization.
