Njord

Njord was an unsettled, frozen ball of ice until the Galactic Civil War when the United Planets needed a place to begin building the next generation of warfleets away from the prying eyes of the Overlords on Maat and Baldur, so the Source sent geoengineering drones to burn fuels, raise the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and heat the planet so that biological organisms could work in the weapons and engine testing faculties created on Njord.

What few biological (or cyborg) inhabitants live on Njord live on a tiny band of latitudes around the equator where the temperatures are not lethal. Despite the harsh climate, Njord and The Collective have used the faculties created during the war to continue to turn out some of the best fleet and vehicle factories this side of the Quartz Valley.
