StarCitizen:Croshaw system

Template:System The Croshaw system is a star system controlled by the StarCitizen:United Empire of Earth. It was the first extrasolar system that was terraformed and settled via jump-point by StarCitizen:Humans in the 23rd century. It was named after the first person who successfully traversed the jump-point and came back alive, StarCitizen:Nick Croshaw.<ref>Template:Cite RSI</ref>

The ramifications of Crowshaw's settlement led also to the creation of the StarCitizen:United Nations of Earth. The system has been a consistent player in Humanity's social and political development ever since.<ref name="ReferenceA">Template:Cite RSI</ref>

History

A space anomaly, called the StarCitizen:Neso Triangle was discovered near StarCitizen:Pluto in 2262. Croshaw's first 'discoverers', the crew of the StarCitizen:Goodman, and two other ships went into the event horizon of the jump-point under unknown circumstances and were damaged heavily. Without a functional engine, the crew of the Goodman was stranded in the system and died there.<ref>Template:Cite RSI</ref>

Ten years later, in StarCitizen:2271 scientist and explorer Nick Croshaw successfully traversed the new star system with a special jump-drive. In the following hundred years, Croshaw was terraformed under great difficulties, since no superior organization coordinated this process.<ref name="ReferenceA">Template:Cite RSI</ref>

Several private and state-owned terraforming companies tried to lay claim to Crowshaw's planets but squabbled over how land rights and mineral resources should be divided once terraforming was complete. Each company failed to calculate exactly how expensive it would be to continually transport supplies to maintain their operations. So, none of them succeeded.

Another challenge was inter-system travel. Ships had to be manually navigated through the jump-point. The risky travel led to high losses of ships and their crews, which resulted in the emergence of expert-pilots, called StarCitizen:Jumpers. The 'forefathers of [today's] StarCitizen:NavJumpers.'<ref name="ReferenceA">Template:Cite RSI</ref>

A committee appointed by the StarCitizen:World Summit, a gathering of Earth's leaders, finally took control of the expansion. 'The committee organized the linking of resources from various countries and companies to tackle the terraforming of StarCitizen:Croshaw II and Croshaw III, established a lottery to grant land and mineral rights once the process was complete, and, most importantly, figured out how to pay for it all.'<ref name="ReferenceA" />

The terraforming was funded with the income of the StarCitizen:Freeman Act. People received a one-way ticket to Croshaw aboard government-subsidized shuttles and the right to live there.<ref name="ReferenceA" />

The 'committee's successful stewardship convinced Humanity's leaders that a cohesive voice and vision was needed to aid our ascension out to the stars' and resulted in the transformation of the World Summit into the StarCitizen:United Nations of Earth in 2380.<ref name="ReferenceA">Template:Cite RSI</ref>

Gravitational governors

Croshaw

A G-type main sequence star.

Planets

Croshaw I

The planet's thick acid-based clouds create an atmospheric mass that makes it impossible to land on.

Angeli : Croshaw II

The first planet terraformed and colonized by Humans in another star system, Angeli unfortunately suffers from heightened tectonic activity. Geologists theorize that there will be a devastating earthquake in its future. Nestled between the mountains and the sea, Angeli's city of StarCitizen:Quinton features one of the most iconic skylines in the StarCitizen:UEE.

Vann : Croshaw III

Slightly smaller than Earth, Vann sits on the edge of Croshaw's green band and is perpetually cold. Its population dropped once more systems were discovered, but many people, especially those who enjoy the cold, still call it home.

Croshaw IV

A large dead world that lacks both an atmosphere and valuable minerals.

Asteroid belts

The Croshaw system contains two asteroid fields - the StarCitizen:Daedalus Cluster and the StarCitizen:Icarus Cluster. Both fields are on the same orbit as Croshaw IV.

Quotes

"

Though we might not know exactly what makes StarCitizen:Angeli-aged whiskeys stand out, it is easy to distinguish what makes them so special. Their rich and dignified flavors excite the palette but never overpower it. It is almost as if their flavors were granted a crisp subtlety with age that has yet to be achieved anywhere else in the 'verse.

What we do here will shape the future of interstellar expansion. Let's make sure we get this right.
