StarCitizen:Tayac system

The Tayac System is a single-star StarCitizen:planetary system in StarCitizen:United Empire of Earth (UEE). It is named after StarCitizen:Thessaly Tayac.

History

Discovered during the early StarCitizen:26th century StarCitizen:Eastern Expansion Program, the G-Class Main Sequence star system was first visited in StarCitizen:2524 by a StarCitizen:UPE pilot further exploring the Terra jump point to Magnus. Home to three planets and an asteroid belt, the system, then known as 368A, was classified by surveyors for commercial development, with the innermost planet noted as a potential terraforming candidate.

Due to the bevy of other systems discovered during that decade of expansion, a backlog of planets waiting to be terraformed grew as funding and the necessary resources were claimed as quickly as they were budgeted. It was not until StarCitizen:2539 that the initial steps for terraforming of 368A.01M (StarCitizen:Tayac I) were finally taken, and construction on an orbital rig begun. However, before the process could be completed, Humanity's first official inter-species war erupted in StarCitizen:2541. As the battle against the StarCitizen:Tevarin stepped into high gear, all non-essential projects were canceled in order to focus on expanding the war effort and strengthening the Naval fleet; the terraformation of Tayac was one of the projects included in the cutbacks.

The system remained relatively untouched until the conclusion of the war and rise of StarCitizen:Ivar Messer to the role of StarCitizen:Imperator. With Messer's expansion of the Empire's control, Tayac was made a military system, declared off-limits to civilian traffic, and all known jumps into the system were shut off by Naval blockades. Completely removed from the public eye, the truth of what happened there during the Messer regime wasn't fully known till their reign came to an end centuries later.<ref name="ReferenceA">Template:Cite RSI</ref>

Tayac

Template:Main Tayac is a G-type main sequence star.

Planets

Tayac I

Template:Main A small terrestrial rocky planet without an atmosphere. The Ark is in Tayac I's orbit.

Tayac II

Template:Main This large gas giant is known for its awe-inspiring planetary rings.

Shepherd : Tayac III

Template:Main Nicknamed Shepherd due to its proximity to the asteroid belt, this dwarf planet looks like it's overseeing its flock of asteroids.

Asteroid belts

Belt Alpha

Template:Main A sparse belt with minimal resources, the most noteworthy thing about Tayac's asteroid belt is that it is home to an orbiting art installation that was commissioned in celebration of the Ark's centennial. Completed in StarCitizen:2900, the piece, known as the StarCitizen:Silent Song, was the joint effort between Human artist StarCitizen:Yosef Colt, Xi'an artist StarCitizen:Aor, and a StarCitizen:Banu fabrication team who all lived and worked together for an entire decade. Some say that the cohabitation was a more impressive achievement than the installation itself.<ref name="ReferenceA"/>
