Let\u2019s not let the history of Odin be destroyed again under the stewardship of Humanity.\u201d\n- Dr. Odessa Reynolds, University of Rhetor lecture, Preserving Odin\u2019s Fossil Record, 2943.10.04","de_DE":"Erstmals 2532 entdeckt, deuten Beweise darauf hin, dass der Odin einst die Heimat pulsierender \u00d6kosysteme war, die m\u00f6glicherweise der Erde oder der Terra \u00e4hnlich sind. Das \u00e4nderte sich alles, als Odins Stern in die Phase des roten Riesen eintrat. Die Ausdehnung des Sterns umh\u00fcllte den ersten Planeten des Systems vollst\u00e4ndig und verdarb schnell die Biosph\u00e4ren der anderen und t\u00f6tete alles einheimische Leben, bevor der Stern zu einem Wei\u00dfen Zwerg zusammenbrach. Als die ersten Entdecker der Menschheit zu Odin sprangen, fanden sie ein System von eisigen Felswelten mit einheitlich ahnungsvollen Au\u00dfenseiten.\n\nDa es keine starken Terraforming-Kandidaten gab, wurde das System der industriellen Entwicklung gewidmet. In ganz Odin wurden verschiedene Bergbauvorposten und Raffinerien eingerichtet, um die Vorteile der gefundenen Ressourcen zu nutzen. Doch so leicht erntbare Materialien schwanden, hat sich die Wirtschaft von Odin zu einem Schlingern verlangsamt, und wie es allzu oft der Fall ist, als Unternehmen das System verlie\u00dfen, zogen kriminelle Elemente ein, um ihren Platz einzunehmen. Heute wird das System als unappetitlicher Ort des Niedergangs angesehen.\n\nOdin erhielt zuletzt ein wenig positive Presse, als es zu einem wichtigen Ereignis in der wissenschaftlichen Gemeinschaft wurde, nachdem eine Gruppe bekannter Arch\u00e4ologen enth\u00fcllte, dass die Regierung es den Unternehmen erlaubte, eine ansonsten gut erhaltene fossile Aufzeichnung auszul\u00f6schen, die die Geschichte des Lebens erz\u00e4hlen konnte, das sich im Odin-System entwickeln sollte. W\u00e4hrend eine basisdemokratische \"SAVE THE FOSSILS\"-Bewegung zun\u00e4chst etwas an Popul\u00e4rkultur gewann, verblasste das Interesse bald.\n\nDie Spule (Odin I \/ Odin Cluster Alpha)\nDer Odin I Cluster, allgemein als Coil bezeichnet, ist m\u00f6glicherweise der interessanteste Bereich des Systems. Die Spule, von der man annimmt, dass sie die \u00dcberreste des ersten Planeten vor der Katastrophe des Systems sind, ist eine scheinbar unendliche Wolke aus planetarischen Fragmenten, elektromagnetischen Energiewellen und Mineralien. Der ehemalige Mond von Odin I., bekannt als Gainey, driftet immer noch in der N\u00e4he der \u00dcberreste seines ehemaligen Planeten und hat auf seiner leicht atmosph\u00e4rischen Oberfl\u00e4che einige kleinere Siedlungen in Form von Frakturen und Gasveredelungsanlagen gesehen. Im Inneren der Spule selbst erstreckt sich die Bandbreite vom einfachen Slough bis hin zu Schwermetallen, wobei extrem wertvolle (und charakteristische) Caches h\u00e4ufiger entdeckt werden, als man erwarten w\u00fcrde. Obwohl der Cluster die gr\u00f6\u00dfte Quelle ungenutzter Ressourcen im System ist, bleibt er dank der Gefahren, die mit jedem Versuch, sie zu nutzen, verbunden sind, relativ unber\u00fchrt.\n\nAls Ergebnis des eisenreichen Gehalts des exponierten Planetenkerns, der mit abgetragenen sternf\u00f6rmigen \u00dcberresten in Ber\u00fchrung kommt, sind Lichtbogenladungen f\u00fcr jedes Schiff t\u00f6dlich, das Pech hat, in seiner Umarmung gefangen zu werden. Um diese \"Energiest\u00fcrme\" zu vermeiden, beschr\u00e4nken sich die meisten Minenbetriebe auf relativ sichere Taschen, die vor\u00fcbergehend in der sich ver\u00e4ndernden Wolke erscheinen. W\u00e4hrend Shubin Interstellar eine Station im Cluster betreibt, sind die meisten Minenbetriebe kleiner geblieben.\n\nNat\u00fcrlich, wenn die Bogenladungen dich nicht erwischen, k\u00f6nnen es die Gesetzlosen tun. Die labyrinthischen Tunnel der Coil dienen seit langem als beliebtes Versteck f\u00fcr gut bewaffnete Piraten. J\u00fcngste Berichte deuten darauf hin, dass eine neue Gruppe eingezogen ist und an Dutzenden von Hit-and-Run-Streiks gegen legitime Operationen beteiligt war.\n\nOdin II\nEs wird angenommen, dass Odin II. innerhalb des ehemaligen gr\u00fcnen Bandes des Sterns gelegen hat und ideal f\u00fcr die menschliche Behausung gewesen sein k\u00f6nnte, bevor der Stern zusammenbrach. Heute ist der Planet zu kalt und hat nur noch das wenige Klima, das er in den letzten 50.000 Jahren auf nat\u00fcrliche Weise gesammelt hat. Wissenschaftler und Unternehmen, die auf der Suche nach isolierten Pr\u00fcfeinrichtungen sind, haben Vorposten auf der ganzen Welt errichtet, aber keine echte Bev\u00f6lkerung lebt hier dauerhaft.\n\nDer Mond des Planeten, Villi, ist eine andere Sache. Die Raleigh Station, eine verschneite Basis, die von einem inzwischen erloschenen Waffenpr\u00fcfunternehmen errichtet wurde, erm\u00f6glicht es zivilen Auftragnehmern, Vorr\u00e4te zu beschaffen und gef\u00e4hrliche Stoffe aus den Anlagen auf Odin II unten herauszufahren. Die Raleigh Station ist nicht der einladendste Ort in der Galaxie, aber es gibt genug, um einen Reisenden zu besch\u00e4ftigen.\n\nOdin III & IV\nDer zweite noch intakte Planet im Odin-System, Odin III (die Systembewohner bestehen bekanntlich darauf, dass die Spule immer noch als der erste Planet betrachtet wird), ist eine weitere tote Welt. Einige wenige Forscher haben den Planeten besonders beachtet, da man glaubt, dass seine Oberfl\u00e4che mehr Geheimnisse der fr\u00fcheren Bewohner von Odin birgt als die bisher entdeckten sp\u00e4rlichen Fossilien.\n\nOdin IV ist ein Gasriese und Heimat einer Wasserstoff-Rendering-Station im geosynchronen Orbit. Obwohl es nur eine minimale Besatzung gibt, die den Betrieb \u00fcbernimmt, sind die Einrichtungen f\u00fcr die Interaktion mit Au\u00dfenstehenden vollst\u00e4ndig automatisiert: Ein Lieferant l\u00e4sst unraffinierten Wasserstoff ab und \u00fcbernimmt volle Tanks, ohne jemals auf einen der Insassen zu treffen. Starship-Crews werden aktiv von Aufenthalten auf Odin IV abgehalten, obwohl die Station \u00fcber eine begrenzte Anzahl schlecht gepflegter Mietverh\u00e4ltnisse verf\u00fcgt.\n\nReisewarnung\nWir werden nicht nein sagen, aber wenn du zu Odin gehst, bleib sehr aufmerksam.\n\nIm Wind geh\u00f6rt\n\"Ab diesem Quartal werden unsere Gainey-Extraktionseinrichtungen aufgrund eines j\u00fcngsten Produktions- und Umsatzr\u00fcckgangs an die Investmentgesellschaft Thurston, Conroy und Malters verkauft. Dies ist eine Fortsetzung unserer Bem\u00fchungen, uns auf die Synthese und die Zusammenf\u00fchrung aller laufenden Odin-Operationen zu konzentrieren.\"\n- Sandra Te, CEO Chemline Solutions, Aktion\u00e4rsbericht, 2861.05.04\n\n\"Dieses System wurde bereits einmal zerst\u00f6rt.
