Planet: Auron
Episode: Children of Auron
Location:Unknown.
Physical: terrestrial, with Earth-normal climate, gravity, atmosphere
History: The Auronar have legends claiming their existence going back over a million years. Auronar appear to be of human stock, however. Most probably settled in the early days of the Empire, Auron has maintained its free and neutral status during the rise of the Federation. Its inhabitants have telepathic abilities, though the strength of these abilities differs in individuals. Two way telepathic communication is only possible if both parties are telepaths, but an Auron may "transmit" to a non-telepath. The Auronar enjoy a technology level equivalent to that of the Federation. They maintain a small space fleet, which maintains regular patrols in the system.
The Auronar are an isolationist people, who have rarely sent out envoys or other representatives. Failure to complete an assignment brings about a sentence of exile. It may be that the Auronar cultivate an image of invincibility and mystery to discourage attacks on their world.
In the last 30 years the Auronar have developed cloning technology that permits them to reproduce exact genetic copies of the parent via artificial incubators. With the destruction of the Clone Masters, the Auronar were the sole experts in advanced cloning techniques until the plague. A side effect of the cloning process seems to be an amplification of telepathic abilities. There is little information available about this development.
Auron was devastated by a disease epidemic introduced to the planet by Servalan. No casualty figures are available, but the epidemic was severe enough to require emergency evacuation of genetic stock to form a colony. It may be assumed the Auronar survived on their homeworld, but in insufficient numbers to maintain their technological levels. In addition, their Replication Plant was destroyed by missiles, wiping out their cloning technology.

Episode: Terminal
Location: Unknown
Physical: Unknown
History: Unknown
Notes: Destination of the Liberator before Avon reprogrammed the flight pattern to follow-up on the signals from "Blake."
Episode: Moloch
Location: On the edge of " The Outer Darkness", an area beyond the frontier of human expansion.
Physical: Unknown
History: A Penal Colony in which the prisoners are locked into prison cells, implying a maximum-security setup, unlike that of colonies such as Cygnus Alpha.
Notes: Colonel Astrid of the Fifth Legion, and later Section Leader Grose apparently recruited prisoners from Chalcos to fill out the ranks of their "Legion," in preparation of building their new fleet and conquering the galaxy.
Episode: Powerplay
Location: Unknown
Physical: Terrestrial norm climate, gravity, and atmosphere. Mostly wilderness except for the domed cities populated by the Hi-Techs.
History: Colonized by Earth or an Earth colony about 200 years before the events of "Powerplay." A neutral world with a small population. The original colonists split into two factions after arriving on Chenga. One group, the Primitives, shunned technology and wished to "go back to nature." The other group, the Hi-Techs, preferred to utilize technology to the fullest extent possible. The Hi-Techs apparently concentrated on biomedical technology. They have evolved an organ-harvesting capability, hunting Primitives and unfortunate offworlders and putting their body parts into organ banks. There seems to be no indication the Federation is aware of this practice, so the technology seems to be utilized for the benefit of the Hi-Techs only. The Chengans colloquially call the Organ-Collecting facility "The Slaughterhouse."
Notes: We see a large percentage of female Hi-Techs. The significance of this is uncertain. One would also suspect that there is some sort of off-world market for "prime" body parts.
Episode: Terminal
Location: Unknown
Physical: Unknown, other than it is capable of supporting carbon-based life.
Notes: The Liberator passed within 96 hours, 17 minutes, and 4.303 seconds of this planet (at standard by eight) while tracking "Blake's" signals.
Episode: Powerplay
Location: Lauritol System.
Physical: Unknown. Does support several primitive life-forms.
Notes: Blake notified Zen by voice transmission that he was enroute to Epheron after the Battle of Star One.
Episode: Children of Auron
Location: Unknown
Physical: An uninhabited Earth-type planet.
Notes: The planet that was chosen to be the location of the Auron Colony founded by Franton, Patar, and the 5000 embryos they carried. No other information available.
See Keezarn II, Vilaworld
Episode: Terminal
Location: Unknown
Physical: Unknown
Notes: Servalan claims that Blake died of his wounds on this planet, where she saw his body and watched it be cremated.
Episode: Harvest of Kairos
Location:Lypterion Constellation, 4th planet of Xymines
Physical: Breathable atmosphere, Earth-like gravity. Kairos has an orbital revolution of 15 years, during which only the week of the vernal equinox is the environment non-hostile. It has a small fertile zone.
Notes: Uninhabited except during the week of the Harvest of Kairos. The harvest involves collecting Kairopan, a suborganic growth that resembles crystals. Kairopan is rare and valuable, but no mention is made of its uses. Kairos is inhabited by at least one dangerous lifeform, resembling a giant spider/tick.
Episode: City on the Edge of the World
Location:Unknown
Physical: Earth-like atmosphere, gravity. No valuable minerals or metal left, at least that are accessible by current technology.
History: Keezarn was the home of a thriving civilization that reached its peak over 3000 years ago. The Keezarn were aware of the impending fall of their culture, and developed a Super-Transporter system as part of the plan to save their species. They built a city as one Terminus of the Transporter system, and placed the other Terminus on a spacecraft (moving at slower than light speeds). The spacecraft was programmed to find a star system with several life-supporting planets that could be colonized. A racial memory was then programmed into the Keezarn. When their civilization fell, and the Keezarn forgot even their name, the memory would impel them to gather at the city every 35 generations. Once the ship had landed, and the City-side Terminus was opened, the survivors could emigrate to their new home. Vila opened the gate and allowed the migration to occur.
Notes: The Keezarn are presumably true humanoid lifeforms rather than human, since their civilization flourished several millennia prior to Earth developing interstellar travel.
Episode: City at the Edge of the World
Location: Unknown
Physical: Unknown, but capable of supporting humanoid lifeforms
Notes: This planet met the criteria for colonization by the Keezarn who developed the Transporter system. It is rich in minerals and precious metals.
Episode: Dawn of the Gods
Location:Sector 12.
Physical: A hollow world with all life on the inside.
History: An artificially created world, built by the Thaarn, a Legendary Auron god based on fact. Krandor is technically the center of an artificial black hole, built by the gravity-controlling technology of the Thaarn. It is inhabited by an indeterminate number of slaves used to further the Thaarn's goal of galactic/universal dominance. Destroyed by the Liberator crew and the slave Groff.
Episode: Powerplay
Location:Unknown
Physical: Unknown
Notes: Planet to which Jenna was enroute after the Battle of Star One.
Episode: Volcano
Location:6th sector, in a strategically valuable position
Physical: Terrestrial in gravity, atmosphere is breathable but unpleasant. The outstanding feature of Obsidian is the single gigantic volcano in the northern hemisphere that dominates it. This Volcano has been "bubbling away" for at least the last 20 years.
History: A small colony exists, only a few miles from the Volcano. This colony is technologically advanced, and appears to be made up from a group of Federation exiles or escapees. They are pacifist in philosophy, and refer to themselves as Pyroans. The colony is of indeterminate age, but appears at least 20 years old. The colony is located underground. Obsidian was destroyed by the colonists following an attempt by Servalan to invade the planet.
Notes: Hower claimed that the colonists were dying slowly of radiation, and that there was a nuclear bomb in the volcano itself. No mention is made by Zen of radiation when Liberator is in orbit, so perhaps the radiation is a result of the excavation techniques used by the Pyroans. The Volcano itself is possibly of artificial origin.
Episode: Ultraworld
Location: Unknown
Physical: Unknown
Notes: The home planet of Specimen P794011, humanoid vertebrate, subcategory menial, name Relf. No further information available.
Episode: Harvest of Kairos
Location:Unknown
Physical: Planet has a permanent dark side, with temperatures that are cold but bearable without thermal gear for short periods of time. the atmosphere does require special breathing apparatus however.
Notes: The homeworld of the lifeform Sopron. Of unknown intelligence, this lifeform appears to be a rock. It is capable of reflecting back a distorted image to any scanning device used on it, projecting a more powerful version of the creature or entity scanning it.
Episode: Moloch
Location: In the "Outer Darkness". Nearest planet appears to be Chalcos.
Physical: A "large fixed meteoroid", with earth-type atmosphere and gravity. Climate appears to be earth-normal. The whole planet is surrounded by two energy fields, the inner impervious, the outer refractive to all medium-pulse emissions, rendering the planet invisible to most scanning devices.
History: Sardos is a colony of 300 people who avoid any social contact which may result in genetic change. The Sardoans wished to avoid "normal evolutionary processes" after running computer projections up to 2 million years into their future. Their entire culture is run by computer and relies on energy-mass converters to provide everything they need. The remnants of the Federation's 5th Legion crashed on Sardos. Quickly realizing the potential, they overcame the natives and took over the technology for themselves. Colonel Astrid went so far as to feed the computer generation of the evolved Sardoans into the converters, creating the entity Moloch. Moloch was destroyed when he left his computer-created environmental support system, and the leaders of the Legion were killed. The Liberator left Sardos with the colonists having to deal with the remaining criminals imported by the Legion.
Episode: Aftermath
Location:Unknown
Physical: Earth normal gravity, atmosphere, climate
History: Possibly a reverted colony, Sarran is inhabited by low-technology barbarians with legends of creatures who would "Burn the stars to light their way", and would come to destroy Sarran. The Sarran are extremely xenophobic. After the battle of Star One, the Sarran slaughtered any survivors who crash-landed. Avon survived only because Dayna, daughter of Hal Mellanby, rescued him. Dayna and her father have lived on Sarran for most of Dayna's life.
Episode: Deathwatch
Location: Unknown
Physical: Unknown
History: An independent world that borders the Vandor Confederacy and the Federation. Teal has a long history of conflict with Vandor, which has resulted in the two worlds establishing a complicated dueling system known as the Teal/Vandor Convention, which reduces warfare between the worlds to a duel between champions. Teal controls several planets, since it risks losing three worlds to the Vandor Confederacy if its champion loses, as well as two-thirds of its warfleet.
The Convention was used by Servalan in an attempt to get Vandor and Teal to engage in open warfare so that the Federation could move in and take over both systems. The attempt was stymied by Avon and the crew of the Liberator. See also Vandor.
Episode: Terminal
Location:Orbiting Delta 714 on the edge of Sector 6.
Physical: gravity, atmosphere, and climate appear earth-normal.
History: built by a consortium of United Planets scientists 411 years before the events of the episode "Terminal," the planet was originally in solar orbit between earth and Mars. According to Tarrant, the records state Terminal broke up. No explanation was given as to how an entire planet managed to "migrate" to another sector outside of Federation space. Terminal was built as a gigantic lab, and seeded with organic materials. Servalan states that evolution is accelerated on the planet, and that the ape-like life forms called Links are the future evolutionary path of mankind. Liberator and Zen were ultimately destroyed there, after Servalan attempted to take the ship out of orbit while it was suffering severe structural compromise.
Episode: Ultraworld
Location: Unknown
Physical: Of indeterminate size, it is an artificially created hollow world. It is built out of material that blocks radiation leakage--the Liberator picked up only reflections of emissions. The whole of the interior is a gigantic computer, made up of a biological component. Ultraworld maintains a small force of Ultras, who may be artificial humanoids, and menials, humanoids who have had their brain patterns scanned and are essentially zombies. The Ultra and menials tend to the physical needs of the Core, or biological component of Ultraworld.
Notes: Both Cally and Avon suffered transference on Ultraworld. Tarrant was able to reverse the process. Orac and Vila destroyed Ultraworld when the Planetary Computer attempted to take control of Liberator.
Episode: Deathwatch
Location: Unknown
Physical: Unknown
History: See Teal for history.
Episode: City at the Edge of the World
See Keezarn II. Also known as Homeworld.
Episode: Sarcophagus
Location: Unknown. Their world lies very far from human space, since the Liberator could not reach it within Tarrant's lifetime.
Physical: Unknown, capable of supporting humanoid life.
History: Inhabited by humanoid lifeforms with telepathic abilities enhanced with technological aides. The humanoids, when they die, are actually able to regenerate a body with the aid of a pattern and the proper technology.
