A single unmanned probe was all it took for geologists to discount the planet as a potential source of commerce or science. No attempt at habitation has ever been made, and no interesting resources have ever been discovered. Vega I is a dwarf planet located close to the system’s star. Even though the early warning systems will occasionally lock the system down as Vanduul Clans are detected roaming through Virgil, clearly that threat doesn’t outweigh the appreciation some have for cheap rent. People feeling the effects of the difficult economy have begun to flow to Vega to take advantage of the cheap real estate. Within the last decade, the system has begun to turn around. While native Vegans consider themselves to be on the front line of the war effort, few in the military do: with the existing infrastructure and the connection directly to the home worlds, an assignment to Vega feels nothing like being forward deployed elsewhere. Even so, the constant threat of invasion still looms over the populace. Beyond the occasional rapidly defeated reconnaissance foray, the aliens have not made a solid push to take or significantly ravage Vega. The imagined Vanduul invasion has not, as of yet, occurred.

In the blink of an eye, the most profitable work on Vega became figuring out how to leave it. Real estate prices plummeted to almost nothing, and the tenor of the system’s populace that stayed changed overnight. Suddenly finding themselves on a front line and fearing an organized, ongoing Vanduul campaign, the system’s population decreased suddenly as those with the means to do so retreated to inner worlds. That growth ceased with the fall of Armitage in the late 27th century. The system’s population expanded, constructed cities, mined the asteroid field and Selene gained its first UEE representative in rapid succession. Two planets in the green zone, Aremis and Selene, were quickly terraformed. Once seen as a potential centerpiece for rapid Human expansion that might someday compete with the likes of Earth and Terra, Vega has suffered as it has found itself on the front lines of the Vanduul conflict.ĭiscovered in 2402, the system was first settled in seven years later. On the surface, Vega is an unassuming four-planet system orbiting a G-type Main Sequence star. Let it be a reminder to how great a planet Aremis was, and hopefully, an inspiration for what it can become again. To honor the memory of this tragedy, we here at the Galactic Guide have decided to reprint this article in its original form. Editor’s Note: This Galactic Guide article was written prior to the horrific Vanduul attacks on Aremis.
