Um das Andenken an diese Trag\u00f6die zu ehren, haben wir hier im Galaktischen F\u00fchrer beschlossen, diesen Artikel in seiner urspr\u00fcnglichen Form neu zu drucken. M\u00f6ge es eine Erinnerung daran sein, wie gro\u00df ein Planet Aremis war, und hoffentlich eine Inspiration f\u00fcr das, was er wieder werden kann.\n\nAn der Oberfl\u00e4che ist Vega ein unscheinbares Vier-Planeten-System, das einen Stern der Hauptsequenz vom Typ G umkreist. Einst als potenzielles Herzst\u00fcck der schnellen menschlichen Expansion gesehen, das eines Tages mit solchen wie Erde und Terra konkurrieren k\u00f6nnte, hat Vega gelitten, als sie sich an der Front des Vanduul-Konflikts befand.\n\nDas 2402 entdeckte System wurde sieben Jahre sp\u00e4ter erstmals besiedelt. Zwei Planeten in der gr\u00fcnen Zone, Aremis und Selene, wurden schnell terraformed. Die Bev\u00f6lkerung des Systems wuchs, baute St\u00e4dte, ber\u00fchrte das Asteroidenfeld und Selene gewann in rascher Folge seinen ersten UEE-Repr\u00e4sentanten.\n\nDieses Wachstum h\u00f6rte mit dem Fall von Armitage im sp\u00e4ten 27. Jahrhundert auf. Pl\u00f6tzlich befand sie sich an vorderster Front und f\u00fcrchtete eine organisierte, andauernde Vanduul-Kampagne. Die Bev\u00f6lkerung des Systems nahm pl\u00f6tzlich ab, als sich diejenigen, die die Mittel dazu hatten, in die inneren Welten zur\u00fcckzogen. Die Immobilienpreise sanken auf fast Null, und der Tenor der Bev\u00f6lkerung des Systems, die \u00fcber Nacht blieb, \u00e4nderte sich. Im Handumdrehen wurde die profitabelste Arbeit an Vega herausgefunden, wie man sie verlassen kann.\n\nDie imagin\u00e4re Vanduul-Invasion ist bisher noch nicht erfolgt. Abgesehen von dem gelegentlichen, schnell besiegten Erkundungsausflug haben die Au\u00dferirdischen keinen festen Ansto\u00df gegeben, Vega einzunehmen oder erheblich zu verw\u00fcsten. Dennoch droht die st\u00e4ndige Bedrohung durch Invasionen immer noch \u00fcber der Bev\u00f6lkerung.\n\nW\u00e4hrend sich die einheimischen Veganer an vorderster Front der Kriegsanstrengungen befinden, tun es nur wenige im Milit\u00e4r: Mit der vorhandenen Infrastruktur und der Anbindung direkt an die Heimatwelten f\u00fchlt sich ein Einsatz an Vega nicht wie ein Einsatz an einem anderen Ort an.\n\nInnerhalb der letzten zehn Jahre hat das System begonnen, sich zu drehen. Die Menschen, die die Auswirkungen der schwierigen Wirtschaft sp\u00fcren, haben begonnen, nach Vega zu flie\u00dfen, um die Vorteile der billigen Immobilien zu nutzen. Auch wenn die Fr\u00fchwarnsysteme das System gelegentlich blockieren, da Vanduul Clans beim Roaming durch Virgil entdeckt werden, ist klar, dass die Bedrohung die Wertsch\u00e4tzung, die einige f\u00fcr billige Miete haben, nicht \u00fcberwiegen wird.\n\nWega I\nWega I ist ein Zwergplanet, der sich in der N\u00e4he des Sterns des Systems befindet. Es wurde noch nie ein Wohnversuch unternommen, und es wurden noch nie interessante Ressourcen entdeckt. Eine einzige unbemannte Sonde war alles, was Geologen brauchten, um den Planeten als potenzielle Quelle f\u00fcr Handel oder Wissenschaft zu nutzen.\n\nVega II (Aremis)\nAremis ist f\u00fcr eine bewohnte Welt wirklich atemberaubend und wird von einer Reihe von Planetenringen umkreist, die eine Reihe von kleinen Hirtenmonden enthalten. Die Biosph\u00e4re des Planeten entwickelte sich zwar an den menschlichen Komfort im Terrassenbildungsprozess angepasst, entwickelte sich aber auf nat\u00fcrliche Weise und f\u00fchrte zu einer betr\u00e4chtlichen Menge an Flora und Fauna, die noch immer \u00fcberlebt.\n\nAremis war der zweite Planet, der im Vega-System angesiedelt war. W\u00e4hrend des gr\u00f6\u00dften Teils seines \"Lebens\" existierte Vega II als Heimat f\u00fcr eine Reihe von Marine- und anderen Milit\u00e4rbasen sowie als beliebter Ort f\u00fcr den Landgang. Der Planet beherbergt bedeutende St\u00fctzpunkte f\u00fcr alle drei Dienste, darunter eine der \u00e4ltesten Armeeeinrichtungen, Camp[General Chester C.] Manheim. Diese Dynamik hat sich in den letzten Jahren ver\u00e4ndert. Aremis hat am meisten vom j\u00fcngsten Bev\u00f6lkerungsboom profitiert, der zu mehreren bedeutenden Kleinst\u00e4dten und der Entwicklung von viel Ackerland f\u00fchrte.\n\nDieser Bev\u00f6lkerungszustrom hat das System belebt, nachdem es von der New United newsOrg als \"zu beobachtender Planet\" bezeichnet wurde. Die Stadt New Corvo ist derzeit die gr\u00f6\u00dfte der Welt und der Ort, an dem der meiste Handel au\u00dferhalb der Welt stattfindet; sie wird zum Zentrum der Kochwissenschaft innerhalb der UEE. Viele \u00d6konomen spekulieren, dass Vega II innerhalb weniger Jahre seinen Schwesterplaneten Selene \u00fcbertreffen und Selenes Statur bald noch weiter \u00fcbertreffen wird, sogar in der H\u00f6he seiner Expansion. Der Rat der lokalen Gouverneure hat auch einen Antrag auf Anerkennung durch den Senat aggressiv verfolgt[Anmerkung: Aremis wurde am 2945-11-10 offiziell anerkannt]. Sie haben sogar Schritte unternommen, um freiberufliche S\u00f6ldner zu beschaffen, um die lokale Polizei und Miliz zu unterst\u00fctzen und zu verst\u00e4rken, um ihre Kriminalit\u00e4tswerte zu verringern.\n\nVega III (Selene)\nSelene ist das Herzst\u00fcck des Vega-Systems, obwohl viele vermuten, dass es diesen Titel nicht lange halten wird. Obwohl seine Bev\u00f6lkerung seit der Bl\u00fctezeit des Systems deutlich zur\u00fcckgegangen ist, h\u00e4lt es immer noch eine Bev\u00f6lkerung, die eine Gr\u00f6\u00dfenordnung \u00fcber anderen Grenzwelten liegt. Selene ist im UEE-Senat angemessen vertreten, mit einem Sitz, der als wesentlich einflussreich angesehen wird.\n\nDie gr\u00f6\u00dfte Stadt und das Hauptland ist Titus, eine weitl\u00e4ufige Megalopolis, die von fr\u00fcheren Ruhmesgeschichten zu tr\u00e4umen scheint. W\u00e4hrend das Stadtzentrum gut erschlossen ist, pr\u00e4gt eine rostige Ausbreitung von Bauprojekten, die zwar durchgef\u00fchrt, aber noch nicht abgeschlossen sind, das Stadtbild. In letzter Zeit wurden diese von externen Interessen erworben, in der Hoffnung, die Region wiederzubeleben; der Erfolg oder Misserfolg dieser Initiative steht noch nicht fest.\n\nEin bestimmtes Bev\u00f6lkerungssegment ist von Interesse: die Nachkommen von \u00dcberlebenden aus dem Orion-System. Diese Gruppen, die im Allgemeinen weit weg von der Zivilisation und mit wenig Namen leben, schlie\u00dfen sich h\u00e4ufig zusammen, um verheerende Racheaktionen im Vanduul-Raum zu unterst\u00fctzen. Diese Missionen sind wenig bezahlbar und extrem gef\u00e4hrlich, gelten aber als besonders befriedigende Leistungen f\u00fcr echte S\u00f6ldnerk\u00e4mpfer.\n\nAsteroideng\u00fcrtel & Vega IV\nHinter Selene liegt der dichte Asteroideng\u00fcrtel des Systems. Der G\u00fcrtel, der sich offiziell im Besitz der UEE-Regierung befindet, ist nicht patrouilliert und wurde stark abgebaut. Selbst\u00e4ndige Unternehmer ohne eigene Bergbauanspr\u00fcche kommen oft in die Region; obwohl es an besonders wertvollen Mineralien mangelt, gilt es als eine Art Ausbildungslauf f\u00fcr angehende Bergleute. Die letzte Welt im System, Vega IV, ist ein Standardgasriese. Vega IV ist eine massive, dichte, rotbraune Welt und wird nie mit Jupiter oder Rhetor V um Sch\u00f6nheit konkurrieren. Was es bietet, ist ein vern\u00fcnftiger Zwischenstopp f\u00fcr diejenigen, die gr\u00f6\u00dfere Raumfahrzeuge betanken wollen. Unabh\u00e4ngige Raffinerien befinden sich auf der Umlaufbahn des Planeten, und die \u00e4u\u00dfere Wasserstoffschicht ist im Allgemeinen rein genug f\u00fcr eine individuelle Probenahme.\n\nReisewarnung\nLassen Sie sich von der lokalen Einstellung nicht t\u00e4uschen - Vega steht an vorderster Front. Vanduul-Reisegruppen sind daf\u00fcr bekannt, das System zu durchqueren, und die Reise \u00fcber die Vega hinaus wird die Zivilbev\u00f6lkerung in unmittelbare Gefahr bringen, Raider zu treffen.\n\nIm Wind geh\u00f6rt\n\"Obwohl ich drei Tage im Knast verbracht habe, zwei Wochenlohn gesenkt habe und mich nicht an die H\u00e4lfte davon erinnere, schw\u00f6re ich jedem, der fragt, das Beste daran, in der Marine zu sein, war der Landgang am Wochenende auf Aremis.\"\n- Leutnant Donald Hywanti, Gesch\u00fctzoffizier im Ruhestand.\n\n\"Ich arbeitete an einer Landezone, ich habe mit Leuten aus dem ganzen Vers gesprochen, und je mehr ich traf, desto mehr war ich mir sicher, dass ich nie irgendwo au\u00dferhalb von Vega leben w\u00fcrde. Sicher, dass du Menschen au\u00dferhalb des Systems hast, aber Wega ist f\u00fcr mich der einzige Ort, an dem es Menschen gibt.\"\n- Terri Santos, Cargolympics Champion","zh_CN":"Editor\u2019s Note: This Galactic Guide article was written prior to the horrific Vanduul attacks on Aremis.
