Planet: Gree IV
Table of Contents [hide]

Gree IV is the first circumbinary planet for the star Gree Besh in the binary star system that is Gree. It is a hot gas giant, orbiting the twin stars at an average distance of only one hundred five million kilometres, close enough that the average daily temperature is above the boiling point of water and the twin stars’ gravitic pull results in a noticeable shift in the planet’s atmospheric density throughout its eighty four hour day. Being relatively close to the twin stars, Gree IV completes an orbit of its system’ suns every one hundred twelve solar days. The planets atmosphere comprises approximately sixty percent hydrogen with the rest comprising helium, carbon dioxide, sulphur and oxygen. There are some traces of rarer elements, such as tibbanagas and several hydrocarbons that are extracted for use in local industries.

Apart from the tibbanagas extraction and processing industry, which is common to almost all gas giants in the galaxy, the planet is also well known as a hub for the production of Speeders of all description, from 1 person speeder-bikes to multi-passenger shuttles. These are both exported off-world and sold at a reasonable cost at the myriad distributors found on almost every street. In addition to this, the second major contributor to the planet’s economy is the manufacture of precision medical equipment, often manufactured in zero-G environments to ensure stable conditions to reduce any machining and processing errors.

Life for the millions of factory workers in the floating cities is somewhat constrained, as local government favours the interests of business owners, somewhat to the detriment of workers. While some worker benefits are mandated by local laws, the enforcement can vary widely from city to city, leaving some workers at the mercy of their employers. Feeding the teeming billions on the planet is no small matter, and is accomplished by a combination of distributing pills containing the nutrients required daily, together with a cheap stomach filler made of cellulose material flavoured with artificials flavours and processing the byproducts of tibannagas and other gas refining into organic molecules that are then further refined into a type of nutritive paste and mixed with other artificial nutrients and flavourings imported from off-world.

Some scholars and mythseekers believe that the deeper depths of the planet's gaseous atmosphere harbour ancient secrets; age-old refineries and research stations that had once belonged to the Gree civilisation that had dominated this region of space eons ago. With Gree technology remaining incredibly advanced to this day and age, scientists and treasure hunters have attempted to traverse the crushing pressure of the planet's deepest atmospheric layers in an attempt to retrieve valuable relics. None have succeeded.
