Earth
The once beautiful jewel in the Federation's crown is anything but, nowadays. Overcrowded and rapidly becoming polluted, Earth is in a dire straight. Her oceans are now mostly polluted and are filled with huge colonies of various water dweling species that sought refuge during the War. Her continents are battle scared, covered with large craters and crowded to the point where no further beings are allowed to settle there. Her skys are now grey and lifeless, and are filled with numerous space stations, many in bad states of repair. Countless starships sit motionless in high orbit unable to leave the Sol system. Earth is running out of room and resources.
The Debris field
A massive area of space debris made up mostly of Borg vessels and some Dominion and Federation ships and large chunks of asteroids and subspace disruptions between the orbits of Mars and Earth. The most hazerdous place in the sol system three paths were cleared thru the debris fields and forcefields placed along the paths to prevent debris drift. Rumored to still contain living Borg. A series of ships and defence satellites watch the field for any sign of trouble. As of yet none has occured.
Main article located at The Field.
Mars
The most famous and heavily populated of the Sol system's "non habitable" planets. The Martian terraforming project was partially completed before the start of the Borg War and is currently underway again. Mars is home to Utopia Planitia shipyards which are currently in a state of rebuilding. The defence and research base Zephyria and the 12th EDF squadronare located in the Martian desert. Mars is also the setting for the first re-signing of the new Federation Charter set for 2410.
The Asteroid Belt
Often forgotten in diagrams of the system, the asteroid belt serves as a divider between the smaller habitible planets of Earth and Mars and the Gas Giants on the outer reaches of the system. Though it stretches around the Sun in a wide orbit, the total mass of the asteroid field is less than half that of Luna, Earth's moon.
Jupiter
Starfleet is currently in the process of rebuilding the Jupiter-class station previously in orbit of the giant body, following the success of the Briar Patch station based upon the general design brief however built largely from reclaimed starship and space station parts. When completed, the new Jupiter Station will house a medium sized starship repair facility and the new Holographic Starfleet Medical Corps headed by Doctor Lewis Zimmerman, the first ever Human/hologram neural transfer subject.
Saturn
Data is not available on saturn at the moment.
Uranus
Current home of the Federation's main methane/hydrogen refueling facility. The facility draws raw Hydrogen from the planet for use in starship fuel mixtures. Uranus' atmosphere is 83 percent hydrogen and is the best mining source for this starship fuel currently available.
Neptune
Small Debris Field
- This debris field is much smaller than The Field, it consists mainly of vessels junked after the war ended. Including the incapacitated vessels used as torpedo and phaser turrets following the Battle of Sol.
Pluto
Small twin planetoid icey outpost and gateway to the Sol system. Currently a platform for the Sol system's "Early Warning Sensor System" (EWSS); a massive outer network of probes, listening stations, sensor arrays, weapons platforms and mines that relay all materials of import on ships and objects in proximity to Sol to Pluto Station and can be controlled remotely from that facility. Construction of a new EDF orbital control Nelis Base was completed in 2403.
