Delta Vega I: Difference between revisions

Delta Vega I is the first and only planet orbiting a pair of white dwarf stars and possesses no natural satellites. The planet is rocky and mountainous with sparse outcroppings of vegetation and features no large bodies of water on the surface, although scans from orbit do point to the existence of large subterranean lakes. From orbit, the planet appears a ruddy brown and many species cannot survive on the surface without assistance. There are significant deposits of lithium, dilithium and other crucial materials used in the construction, maintenance of powering of starships. This makes Delta Vega strategically important in the Federation’s exploratory efforts within the Sagittarius Reach.
