GL537A, also known as Delos, was a planet located in the GL537 System of the Weyland Isles Sector. It was the site of the Weyland-Yutani Corporation's Spinward Shipping and Distribution Center, which funneled cargo to the Independent Core System Colonies, Three World Empire, and the United Americas.
History[]
During the Frontier War, supply routes through Delos were disrupted for two years; resultantly, Delos was inundated with demands for medical supplies, fuel, and equipment for the outer colonies once order was restored. Delos' strategic importance led to fears that it would be targeted by the New Albion Protectorate, a political faction that had broken away from the Three World Empire.
Climate and terrain[]
Delos' climate was frigid with a thin, barely breathable atmosphere and a mean temperature of –6°C. Terrain on Delos revolved around frost–layered ice interrupted by the occasional thermal spring or steam vent.
Economy[]
Delos' primary asset was its location, and by extension its distribution capability. As such, it traded with the Independent Core System Colonies, the Three World Empire, and the United Americas.
Population[]
Two thousand colonists resided on Delos as of 2187.
