StarCitizen:People's service stations are located inside the outer StarCitizen:Keeger Belt. Stations formerly built by StarCitizen:QV Planet Services, these stations are now inhabited and operated with services provided by the StarCitizen:People's Alliance. It is possible to place one of these stations as a primary residence.

System Composition (in brief)

The Nyx planetary system surrounds an F-type StarCitizen:Main sequence star, and is comprised of, in order:

  1. StarCitizen:Nyx I
  2. StarCitizen:Nyx II
  3. Nyx belt alpha (the StarCitizen:Glaciem Ring)
    1. StarCitizen:Levski
  4. StarCitizen:Nyx III
  5. Nyx belt beta (the StarCitizen:Keeger Belt)
    1. StarCitizen:People's service stations
      1. Station Alpha
      2. Station Delta
      3. Station Theta
      4. Station Lambda

History

Nyx was discovered in StarCitizen:2582 during the height of the newly-formed United Empire of Earth's territorial expansion. Astronomically, the most distinct aspect of Nyx is that it is located directly on the border of a dark nebula.

The system was first charted through a jump point in the Bremen System by solo navjumper StarCitizen:Carla Larry. Carla's official claim doesn't specify much of interest in the system, writing that it "lacks logical reason to apply the expense of terraformation." Larry did make an attempt to formally name the star's three worlds Lou, Morgan and Ashley, apparently after three separate romantic conquests she was pursuing. As per normal policy, the StarCitizen:UEE government has never recognized these names, and they have never been widely used.

In StarCitizen:2618 a group of political activists and refugees from the political group known as the StarCitizen:People's Alliance fled the Messer regime and moved into a vacated asteroid StarCitizen:mining facility in the Glaciem Ring, forming the largest settlement within the Ring.<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":1" /> These people named the facility StarCitizen:Levski and have since established some degree of order in the Nyx system.<ref>CitizenCon Direct: October 11, 2025. YouTube. Retrieved 2025-10-12.</ref>

In the last two centuries, Nyx has gained some additional utility as a waypoint on the Castra-Stanton run, with a significant credit value of cargo moving through the system at any one time. Small scale piracy is not uncommon, and travelers are warned not to veer off the standard spacelanes during transit of the system.<ref name="ReferenceA">Script error: No such module "Cite RSI".</ref>

Nyx

Nyx is a main sequence [[StarCitizen::Category:Dwarf stars|dwarf-F star]].

Planets

StarCitizen:Nyx II

A high-pressure atmosphere and thick clouds of acid and carbon dioxide make Nyx II not worth terraforming.<ref>Script error: No such module "Cite RSI".</ref>

StarCitizen:Delamar

Not technically a planet - this large asteroid is hidden deep within the StarCitizen:Glaciem Ring. Anti-StarCitizen:UEE activists, political radicals and criminals now occupy the deserted mining facility StarCitizen:Levski built inside this asteroid.

StarCitizen:Nyx III

Asteroid belts

StarCitizen:Glaciem Ring

View of the Anvil Terrapin flying through the StarCitizen:Glaciem Ring.

A dense asteroid belt circles Nyx's star at roughly 8 AU out. The asteroid field is not a source of valuable minerals, but coupled with the nebula it has created a very good place to hide.<ref name="ReferenceA" /> StarCitizen:Delamar lies within the Glaciem Ring.

StarCitizen:Keeger Belt

The Keeger Belt is located at the system's edge. StarCitizen:People's service stations lie within the Glaciem Ring.

Trivia

  • According to Dave Haddock Nyx is the "greek goddess of darkness and night". In fact, Erebus is the god and personification of darkness in contrast to Nyx, which is the godess and personification of night.
