Kepler's Find

A system found long ago by an ancient astronomer in Jaspis' Great Conflict Era, Kepler's Find is located a few light-years west of the Two-Jaspis Spaceway and south-southeast of Essia System. Though not directly on the Spaceway, its location close to it makes it a potential pirating outpost and thus warrants the inclusion of it into the Abwehran Star Empire. As a bonus, the system boasts seven planetary bodies that had great economic purposes, but sadly no habitable planets for colonization.

History

In YE 45.1, the YSS Resurgence explored the Kepler's Find star system. It was the first ship from the Yamatai Star Empire to do so.
