Owner History

Planetary Info

For most of Buckminster's history it was an agricultural world whose light industry produced agricultural equipment. The products of the world were often sent to the nearby Lyran world of Port Moseby. After Buckminster was made a prefecture capital in 3005, the DCMS stationed the Second Sword of Light on the world.[1]

The presence of military forces on the world, and the exercises and training runs that they require, dramatically reduced the productivity of the farmland. This had a bad effect on the local economy. These changes to the world took place in a scant two decades, and the population has spawned several covert and overt anti-government groups.[1]
