U IV
A planet in the U System, owned by the HEX Mainframe.
U IV is a relatively small world, yet not small enough to be classified a dwarf planet. This causes the planet to have low gravity, making it very easy to fly off-world. This makes it popular with HEX Mainframe black project sites, as any Data Fae that attempts to settle on world can be easily denied by launching every project into space simultaneously. As such, much of the surface is covered with these projects most of the time. However, other than the deployment of every computer on world, the planet has no measures against Data Fae invasion. It is a very cold planet so most organisms would not survive on the surface without protection.
The HM also mines material from the world. Its iridium mining industry is more lucrative than that of other materials due to the high relative content of iridium, making it quite valuable for technologies that use this rare material. The planet also has an extensive space infrastructure. This is sometimes used to manufacture starships but is primarily used to house similar black projects as those on the planet. Although the HM has constructed a number of defence platforms to defend the world, it is comparitively weakly defended relative to other planets of the galaxy, but the defence platforms make it better defended than other planets in the star system.
