Nebulae
Ariege Nebula
The Ariege Nebula is a cluster of dense particulates, primarily hydrogen and is thought to be a nodule of the Hebrides Nebula so prominent in the skies of Bretonia.
The presence of the Ariege in Roussillon, and Roussillon's distance from the Barrier Nebulae have led cartographers and astronomers to argue that Roussillon should not be categorized as part of Tau. The new cluster would be called Lambda.
Asteroid Fields
Tet Ice Asteroid Field
Tet is a remote field of ice asteroids that concentrate around Tarascon, a moon on the far orbit of Planet Argeles.
Agout Asteroid Field
When the Council, Brigand and Maquis forces first arrived in Roussillon, this asteroid field was the first obstacle they encountered. Frozen pockets of oxygen were quickly marked a navigational hazard. However, as the construction of several space stations and settlement of Toulouse began, that same field became a valuable local source of oxygen, which was scarce in the system due to the toxicity of Toulouse's atmosphere.
Tarn Ice Field
The Tarn Ice Field is a cloud of asteroids captured from the Barrier Nebula as the Rousillion system passed through the nebula's reaches long ago. The field is composed of particularly dirty bodies of frozen water, which the cost of refining has made any mining of the field to be prohibitively expensive when compared to other sources. Until recently it was notable due to council traffic plying the route from Rousillion to Tau, but the recent instability that collapsed the Tau-29 hole has left the expanse of the Tarn with little to offer.
Debris Field
Edinburgh Gateway Mine Field
A dangerous and dense minefield laid down by Council forces to defend their bases in the Rousillion system.
Tau-44 Gateway Mine Field
A dangerous and dense minefield laid down by Council forces to defend their bases in the Rousillion system.
