Drexicon IX

Drexicon IX was a major refueling planet on the edge of the Outer Colonies before entering the '''Frontier. It's location was a major tactical area, due to the large amounts of tilium fuel, titanium, and the only Entropy Mine '''in the outer colonies.

Pre-colonization
The Planet of Drexicon IX formed around 127 million years BCE making it one of the oldest known planets to exist in the galaxy, early theories exist to presume it once was a Rogue Planet that had been caught in the gravity of the bright giant star around 12.5 billion years ago. There has been evidence of a past civilization that existed approximately 33 million years ago, with presumptions being made that they were wiped out due to an environmental disaster, which was possibly related to being ejected from it's original stellar position.

The Planet was first identified in the year 2027, however it was not presumed to be habitable due to the stars size and it's own natural size.

Colonization
Drexion IX would be located in 2201 during the Orion Expedition one of the last major deep space explorations, during early scans it was revealed that the planet had a primitive atmosphere, and would be habitable, however due to the high gravity, people would require a long adjustment period for colonists. It would be formally colonized by 2290, where the locals would stumble upon vast tilium fields one of the rarest materials known to man, and what makes space-travel possible. It was one of two planets that have naturally occurring tilium.

The system would soon be unveiled to have two moons, one rich with entropy crystals and the other with deposits of deuterium, a material needed for operation of nuclear fusion reactors.

Destruction
By 2550 the Frontier War had escalated to the point of thousands being killed a month in various battles between local planets of either the UEG or the ESU Militarizes. The planet soon became a major strategic point, as control would mean either side would have a near limitless fuel supply. However the ESU would test an experimental weapon on the planet destroying it killing the entire population of 157,000 people.
