A small, barren, and inhospitable world, Suurja I is covered with endless craters due to massive bombardment from meteors. It is the smallest planet in the Suurja system and has the unfortunate fate of having an orbit that swings it perilously close to the Suurja star, very much like its larger brother Suurja II. Due to this proximity, Suurja I's temperature is always more than most species could survive in. Even when able to overcome the immense heat, few would wish to set foot on the blistering surface and subject themselves to the constant radiation. However, the hope of extensive mineral deposits has more recently brought on the interest of many mining corporations who have sent personnel to brave the harsh and deadly conditions while seeking the treasures of an untapped world.
