Information:
Once a thriving if anonymous Nietzschean colony world
and trade center, Hephaistos IV achieved notoriety as
the site of the first battle of the Nietzschean Uprising
(see Literature: The Nietzschean
Betrayal). It's unclear whether the Nietzscheans
actually moved or created the small black hole in Hephaistos
or took advantage of an existing natural occurence,
but the wandering singularity proved to be an excellent
ruse to gather an enormous battle fleet and destroy
large numbers of High Guard capital ships. By the time
Hephaistos IV was torn apart by the black hole's gravitational
stresses in CY 9811, the planet's original population
had long since evacuated. The Hepahaistos black hole
remains in the system, and was most recently the site
of several experiments conducted by a Sinti research
group and Andromeda Ascendant crew into quantum entanglement-related
phenomena.
