 === Introduction ===
 Planets, eh? Who needs ’em? Big, massy, gassy things, and all that gravity’s just a drag... That’s what most spacers tend to think, anyway. But peek beneath those clouds, look beyond that one-line description in the Register of Worlds, and there are delights and surprises in store for anyone willing to go those extra few klicks from orbit to the surface! Let our team of Planetary Reviewers guide you through the highs and lows of the local volume, the sights, the smells, the sheer otherness of life on foreign worlds, under alien skies. So leave the ship in the loading bay, take a break, take a shuttle and come on down...

Protecting your vital organs the Remlok device shields you from the void by InsPlas plasFibre coating.

 Some planets may trade with currency other than the credit. Be warned that this done at the trader's discretion.
 ==== Food and Drink ====
 In a galaxy as diverse and varied as ours it is next to impossible to list all the delightful dishes and drinks you may come across. However, the Lavian Tree Grub and Lavian Chardonnay come highly recommended. With regards to the Lavian wine always ensure that you ask for white chardonnay as opposed to the red variety. These two drinks are poles apart! Other foods to lookout for are Thrumpberry flavoured items and deep fried trumble (The Ontiat system is probably the best for BBQ trumble - try it for yourself).

 Firstly, '''Zero-G hockey''', the galactic sport is currently enjoying it's 150th Galactic championship. Here, the top 32 systems "battle" it out to see who can lift the coveted Galactic Cup. Systems have to enter a "world" team (made up of the best players in their system) for qualification. This prestigious tournament, held every four years, is the number one event and this year, Zaonce have qualified for the first time in over 70 years. Zero-G has a long and fascinating history and it is well worth checking out '''Zero-G: The Definitive Guide - Past, Present and Future''' 44th Edition, Published by Trantor House, Lave

 As well as Zero-G hockey there are literally hundreds of sports available to watch and participate in. Of particular note is the growth of '''rugby'''. Once this was a popular sport on old Earth but had declined to the point of extinction. Now, a consortium of businessmen (names, unfortunately, withheld from publication) are pumping millions of credits into this ancient sport. In just a few short years this sport has grown in popularity. If you get a chance attend a game and witness one of the sports of yesteryear.

 In recent years there has been a lot of Trumble baiting and Trumble Turning (a pilot stocks up on Trumbles and flies out to the nearest star...well you can guess the results). Despite being edible a number of protest groups have started to voice their concerns. Indeed, there have been reports of some Trumble rights activists attacking trade ships and sellers of these unusual animals.
