Muraght is a planet in the Kr'Tal System, currently under control by Taldryan. It is the eighth orbit of the system's star, Kr'Tal, and is covered in a thick sheet of frozen water.


History

Muraght, while small, has a volcanically active core which heats the ice closest to the rocky surface to the melting point, creating a thin aquatic layer several miles under.

Initial surveys detected nothing of interest under the surface of the ice. It was only a few years after the colonization of the System that a deeper scan found traces of small life forms under the ice. Core samples and remote exploration of the watery depths confirms the presence of a multitude of small aquatic organisms. Though not entirely outside the realm of possibility, the rarity of the find surprised many Taldryan researchers.

Their petitions were heard by Consul Duga Taldrya Arkarso who authorized a permanent research facility on the ice for the dual purpose of xeno-biological research and resource exploration.
