NAV Beacons are found in every habitated system and are used for ship navigation. These beacons are laser arrays that send a narrow beam of light that ships may follow. Small amounts of data are imbeded in the beam with identification, status and information about other ships in that lane.

Minor Systems are typically void of any planetary bodies but may have large asteroids, small space stations or permanently moored barges that serve as outposts and way points for travelers and mining operations. These will have limited services and supplies.

Systems with Star Ports have larger space stations with ship docking capability including repair and refueling facilities. A Star Port is a trading center and defensive point.

Major Systems contain one to fifty planets. A few of these have breathable atmospheres with stable conditions to support life. These are typically heavily populated and often have bases on the surface.

Territories are arbotory regions defined after the war. The Reclamation stories take place in mostly the De-milartized Zones between the Federation and Bogar regions and known as the Wastelands.

Spacial anomliles are typically hazardous and should be avoided.

Trade routes are patroled by regional authorities in the Wastelands and by military in Federation space. Lesser used routes.
