Encyclopedia Entry

Visible in Earth's night sky, Jupiter was known to the Terrans long before they ventured into space. This gas giant's enormous mass, greater than that of all the other planets in Sol combined, affects orbits, numerous asteroids and is still used by Terran deep space drone missions for gravitational slingshots. The planet's upper atmosphere harbours not only great storms, subject to climatic studies and weather control experimentation, but also a wide array of semi-organic lifeforms.

Notes

Jupiter offers the most accessible way to resupply and re-equip ships in Sol and is for more open then the sectors Sol-ward of the Asteroid Belt. It is also a major trade route between the sunlight rich core and the resource rich outer system.
