Waypoint Foxtrot is a cluster of four Waystation Class small space stations set up in orbit around the primary star of the system to act as a refuelling and communications nexus for ships passing through the HM+34 0552 System. ![]() Companion Star: HM+34 0552 B Spectral Type: M0V Mass: 0.46 Sol Radius: 0.537 Sol Luminosity: 0.066 Sol Absolute Magnitude: +7.72 System Age: 6.2 GY Number of Worlds: 2; 1 Asteroid Belt, 1 Planetoid (The Alamo) ![]() The Alamo (HM+34 0552 B II) Orbital Number: 2 Orbital Semi-Major Axis: 19,662,100 km (0.131 AU) Orbital Eccentricity: 0.02 Orbital Inclination: 6.1º Orbital Period: 25.64 Terran Days Orbital Velocity: 0.89 km/sec Orbital ΔV: 1.05 km/sec Axial Tilt: N/A Rotation: 125.2 hours Satellites: None World Type: Sillicate Type Rocky Planetoid Climate Type: Barren Biosphere: None Diameter: 1,568 km Density: 4.63 g/cm3 (0.84 Earth) Surface Gravity: 0.103 G (1.01 m/sec2) Atmospheric Pressure (Sea Level): None Atmospheric Contents (Partial Pressures): None Hydrography: None Mean Surface Temperature: 258ºK (-15ºC) Population: 8,149 (est.)

The nihilists' starship was crippled by industrial drilling lasers from the Prospector class mining vessel Clementine (AMC-116) as it closed with the planetoid to finish the job its missile volley had failed to do. Only three of the terrorists survived capture to be transfered into the custody of Jan Mercer's ship Enterprise (AMC-003) for trial - the rest ether died during the fight or were "killed while resisting" the miners while detained. The three survivors refused to testify against their organization, were convicted of piracy in high space by a court convened by the SDC, and were executed by hanging on 29 July 2360 in the city of Capital Main, on the planet Fury, in the HM+53 0102 System, despite protests from the United Nations and the human rights group Amnesty International that they should be turned over to the International Criminal Court for trial and sentencing. The colony is very proud of its accomplishment, and hope their determination and valor will attract SDC development funds to terraform one of the worlds in-system for their use, but this is doubtful as the worlds here are either far too hot or far too cold to make terraforming reasonable. |
