Ryda

Epsilon Indi

The pharmacy. Ryda is where medicine comes from: its single settlement sits on a moon orbiting a massive gas giant, harvesting atmospheric volatiles that feed pharmaceutical production. Its remoteness is a feature, with one way in and one way out, keeping competitors, regulators and journalists at a distance.

Ryda I

Hot rocky

Scorched inner world. No development.

Art pending

Ryda II

Jovian

Massive gas giant and primary source of atmospheric volatiles: complex hydrocarbons, rare gases and chemical precursors harvested by orbital skimmers and processed on the moon below.

Ryda II-a — Apotheca

Major moon

Pharmaceutical capital of human space. A population of 3 billion lives in sealed arcologies; harvesting platforms dip into the gas giant's atmosphere, refineries process the haul, and laboratory complexes synthesise everything from basic analgesics to cutting-edge biotechnology.
