Planetary Info

Algorab is a binary star system surrounded by a massive cloud of gases and dust. Inside this cloud are five small planets. As the dust cloud traps radiation and heat, these five worlds have very high temperatures and radiation levels. Only the outermost world is actually habitable by humans; The other four worlds are simply huge barren rocks.

With so little arable land the inhabitants of Algorab V have most of their food imported as freeze-dried meals. The planet's economy is based on mining and ore extraction. To protect themselves from the intense solar radiation, most of the Alborabians live in underground cities.
