4 | | Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar system. It's atmosphere is rich in hydrogen, which can be used for the fusion reactors of the human space ships. Because of this, the human race has started to mine that large reserve of hydrogen. Jupiter is thus a place where there is the most industry. As there are just some moons around Jupiter, people who live here work for the mining companies only. Governments have no interest in the area around Jupiter, so there is a lack of police and military forces. |
| 4 | Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar system. It's mass is that of 317.8 Earths and one Jupiter year equals to 11.8618 Earth years. The distance between Jupiter and Earth is 628'743'036 km when they're closest. Ships travel up to 6 months to get from Earth to Jupiter. It's about 5 months from Mars. |

| 12 | Both Mars and Earth need a lot of energy that is gained from the mined hydrogen from Jupiter. Every time one of these planets come closer to Jupiter, the gas mining companies send away hundreds of fuel transporters to meet the demand that has built up over the year. Because of this there are huge fuel storage facilities to store the refined gas until it's shipped to the other planets. |

| 14 | Meeting demands only twice a year, when the planets approach each other requires elaborate planning and the storage facilities are an easy target for sabotage by the competition. |
