Nauru

Planet Nauru is a warm, bone-dry desert world with an atmosphere that is breathable although unpleasant, due to the large concentration of hydrogen sulfide in the air, although at 0.0051ppm, it poses no health risk to humans. Initial surveys detected huge amounts of Iridium ore in the planetary crust, as well as many ancient structures and ruins dotted across the surface. Corsairs eventually constructed a number of mining bases in conjunction with the Zoners in order to extract the Iridium, which is a critical component in antimatter-based weaponry.

The Order and the Zoners have science teams on the surface investigating the ruins, but no life has so far been discovered on the planet. The ruins contain elements of technology that is used both by the Phantom terrorist organization and the Slomon K'hara, but they were conclusively proven has having not been constructed by either in 815 A.S. by the eminent Order Xenoarchaeologist Kendra Sinclair. Little in the way of any clues or evidence as to the identity of the real builders remain, however, although several science teams continue to sift through the remainder of the structures.
