Fomalhaut is a
planetary system orbiting a blue/white A-class star. The system lies in
the Piscis Austrinus Constellation of the Inner/Sol Region.
The most well known fact about the Fomalhaut
system is it's planet was the first directly
images by the Terrans. A large gas giant
that orbits on the outer fringes of the
Fomalhaut System.
The
young system is home to numerous asteroid and
comet belts. Multiple Terran based companies
attempted to mine the belts over the years,
while they exported the minerals back to Earth.
These mining projects came with various levels
of success, though ultimately were never
profitable enough for any long term
developments.
