LV–KR 115 was an agricultural colony world orbiting the star Nu Phoenicis in the Far Reach of the Frontier.
History[]
LV–KR 115 was the site of a population of voracious insects dubbed The Swarm; the creatures would ravage the world and its biosphere over a period of time before retreating into hibernation. The Weyland-Yutani Corporation later introduced self–replicating crops to LV–KR 115, obviating the Swarm's need to hibernate. Presented with an infinite source of sustenance, the Swarm's numbers grew at a geometric rate and the species soon blanketed the world. Two Weyland–Yutani harvesters were attacked by the insects, along with a United States Colonial Marine Corps team sent to investigate. To expunge the infestation, Weyland–Yutani used pesticides to sterilize LV–KR 115; the bombardment ruined the planet's ecosystem, but successfully eradicated the Swarm.
