Laoth

Little is known about Laoth. The entire planet is sterile and all incoming goods and people are rigorously decontaminated. This is because the entire economy is based on the manufacturing of complex electronics and one tiny virus in the wrong place could be fatal to a project. Only humans live on Laoth but birds fly, horses run and the brooks are full of fish. Entire metal ecosystems have been built which include copper trees, electronic hummingbirds, zinc trout and many other metal plants and animals. It is said that cultivation on Laoth is done with a screwdriver. Laoth also is the only known producer of Class Five Robots. It orbits an anemic red coloured sun called Tau-Ceti.
