    Star type(s): K-type main sequence star.
    Location:

    Reachability: Semi-closed. A ship may fly to it, as there are no defenses whatsoever, but its location isn't well known. It is a fairly dim, difficult-to-spot star just due to its proximity to other even brighter ones.
    Contents:
    • K-2430-I: Habitable. Sustains flora and fauna. Fluctuates between comfortably warm to harsh cold.
    • K-2430-II: Uninhabitable, mostly. A cold, dead, gray rock. Has underground bodies of water, some of which is frozen. It's probably mostly carnivorous water.

    Planet Name: K-2430-I
    Environment: The different biomes across the planet tend to lean toward those adapted to harsh cold seasons, meaning much of the life is that which would be expected of boreal forests and tundras. It has a brief warm season and a longer cold season, though with each one lasting only several weeks due to its proximity to its host star and thus small, though still thin elliptical orbit. Its "year" lasts but 99 days- 32 leaning warm, and 67 being cold. Its highest temperature will likely be at around 75F with an average of 65F, and the typical cold temperature being anywhere from 5 to -10 degrees Fahrenheit, the coldest getting down to -30F depending on location. It snows and rains often, and there is not a lot of dry land on the planet. Aquatic life as a result is disproportionately more abundant than that of terrestrial life, and much of the terrestrial life is amphibious, or capable of flight and more bird-like. Its size and mass is roughly 93% of Earth's.
    Resources: Wood, water, probably some animal products, a lot of aluminum, and iron deep underground. There are not really any particularly valuable elements or anything there.
    Population Size: 0 to a maximum of 4 so far.
    Settlements: None, but there is a small campsite with cabins.
    Backstory Permissions: Uninhabited.
    Notes: Has a teleporter at the campsite, but there's basically nobody with permanent codes to it, those and single-use codes being all it takes at present.
