Edinburgh System

The Edinburgh system, also known for being one of the few remaining systems not affected by the bretonian industries, is a small piece of paradise within Bretonia. The system is relatively young, with several terrestrial planets and two medium sized red-colored nebulas situated on the northern and southern part of the system, an interesting factor of this system is that Edinburgh is the only binary system within Bretonia, due to the system's two twin white dwarfs.

The only planet that was ever considered for settlement on behalf of Bretonia, was Planet Gaia, but some personnel onboard Cambridge Research Station were contrary to see another system being polluted by the bretonian industry complex. A small group of these scientists will be later known for founding the Gaians, an unlawful movement with only one simple goal, defending Planet Gaia, with deadly force.

Luxury Liner Shetland, a liner of OSC is currently moored in orbit around Planet Gaia, offering an incredible view upon the planet itself.

Several efforts made by the Bretonian complex of Planetform, operating out from Perth Station, are undergoing the terraformation process of Planet Ayr. But the presence of the gaians have becoming a serious threat to this project, especially the actions from a splinter cell of the gaians, Nature's Last Hope.

In order to counter the presence of the gaians within the system, the Bretonian parliament decided to contruct a Bretonia Police Authority station next to the jumpgate leading to Edinburgh. Police forces are operating out from it, often making patrols within the southern nebula, in which gaian controlled Islay Base is located.

Areas of interest

Nebulaes

Arran Ice Cloud

A small cloud of ice crystals, less stunning than the Islay Ice Cloud, but also less dangerous to tourists given the lack of Gaian attacks.

Islay Ice Cloud

A beautiful cloud of ice crystals surrounding a field of ice asteroids, the Islay Ice Cloud is considered one of the wonders of Sirius. It is also home to a large contingent of Gaian eco-terrorists who frequently attack unprotected Orbital and Planetform transports.

Asteroid Fields

Tain Asteroid Field

A small ice asteroid field, frequently used by the Gaians to stage attacks against nearby Perth Station, where Planetform, Inc. has located operations to terraform the planet Ayr.
