Description
Venturi is a gas giant in this uninabited system. It is one of the major sources of very complex, unstable biochemicals that are highly valued as catalysts for industrial processes. On of its many moons, Nobol, is a large, lumpy block of water ice and carbon dioxide ice to which is tethered the starship Moneyspider. The tether is a microdisillation column that helps to collect the valuable biochemicals. The system is being developed by ByChem, a subsidiary of A.I.P.S..
