UEE

Helios System

Helios is a unique system because of the helium-strong type B star at its center. It creates fierce solar wind that can interfere with ship sensors. The UEE military takes advantage of this phenomenon to shield their exact activities at Hephaestus Station and Helios IV. Recently, the beautiful, oceanic planet of Tangaroa (Helios II) has become a popular tourist destination.
