Planetary Info
Forty percent of David's surface is covered with water. This would not be a problem except for the fact that a microbe in the water table causes severe allergic reactions to anyone who isn't immune to it. The early settlers weren't immune, and some rapid medical engineering was needed to create an effective inoculation. As of 3025, the local population is completely immune to the microbe, but any visitors from other worlds still need to take the inoculations to eat or drink any of the local foodstuffs.[1]
David has many minerals and metal ores in the crust, which attracted the early settlers. These are used in local light industry. David also maintains a small farming operation which provides enough food to feed the population, but not enough to export. (And the presence of the microbe in all plants and animals from David would render such an operation futile.)[1]
