Ra (RAH) and Ratér (rah-TAIR) are mutually-orbiting binary planets in the Cronox System. The two are both marginal for human life but were settled many millennia ago.

Ma'agah (1GD.Pa9) is the ninth, outermost planet of the star Cordes in the Cronox System. It is a small, cold, dark world of rock and ice with an elliptical orbit, with the planet being pulled towards the binary star Arjos. At aphelion it is twice as far from the sun as at perihelion. - ck iron rock and ice, both water and gaesous ice. Its erratic orbit suggest it was formed closer to its sun and thrown into the outer system at some point in its formation. Its surface suggests that the core is occasionally subjected to warming, possibly by gravi

Nomez [NOM-ez] is a heavy, dense planet orbiting closest to the sun Cordes, in the Cronox System.
Its surface is molten and constantly active, almost half of its surface being a sea of liquid sulphur and mineral salts. It has a toxic atmosphere of gaseous chlorine, bromine, sulphur, and phosphorus belched from the ever-active volcanoes, with clouds of light metals like lead and arsenic.

Do’ah (DOE-ah) is a small, lilac-white gas giant, the eighth planet of the star Cordes in the Cronox System. It is much smaller than its huge and tempestuous brother Kwato'or (0.26 Jovian-masses).
Do'ah is most likely the only survivor of a number of medium-sized gas world that once circled Cordes, the others having been sucked into the hungry maw of Kwato’or.

Cronox [CRON-ox] is a S-type detached-binary star system consisting of the stars 1GD.Pa-Cordes and 1GD.Pb-Arjos. The two orbit a common barycenter at a sufficient distance for each to have its own independent planetary system.

- The Naetherplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigThe Naether
The Naether is a spatial, or perhaps interspatial region between branes. It is technically a null region of zero energy, but in practice its null-space oscillates in multiple planes, generating strange matter that constantly appears and disappears in waves, creating erratic flows of light, gravity and radiation. - lly a null region of zero energy, but in practice its null-space oscillates in multiple planes, generat
- Hyperdriveplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigHyperdrive
Most modern interstellar space travel is achieved using variations on the tachyon transference drive (TTD), variously called the tachyon drive or hyperdrive. This circumvents the laws of mass and energy by “flipping” a vessel travelling at speeds approaching the speed of light into tachyonic particles. These particles have no mass in the convention sense, as they are incapable of interacting with sub-luminal matter. They also travel at the speed of light within their own point of … - tachyon drive has a number of issues which limit its range. Firstly, the amount of energy required to
