Average prices are based on long-term established averages (the so-called arithmetic mean). The average quantity is based only on quantity values greater zero. Availability gives a percentage whether a good is available in this system. Please note that these are statistical data. GalCop regulations expressively forbids the broadcasting of actual prices beyond the current system. |
OXPs
Famous Planets
The planet Onrira is famous for its Torus station. When the first Torus station was unveiled in orbit around Onrira in 3129 (eighteen years ago), it was an event full of political promise. Both GASEC and GalCop had relied heavily on the services of Obnoxicorp in both the political lobbying and execution of the project. At the time Onrira was an unstable multi-government system, but the Torus station helped unify the planet's inhabitants. It was a technological marvel at the time and Onrira became the first tech 14 planet in galaxy 1. (Famous Planets OXP)
Torus station
Adds the famous Torus station to Onrira (and other systems too).
This system falls under the responsibility of the Navy Command Station 3 in Isinor. (Galactic Navy OXP)
History
The Sidewinder is built here in the Onrira Orbital Shipyards by Spalder and Starblaze Inc. for Faulcon de Lacy. It was originally built to Navy specifications for a multi-purpose support craft and the ship began rolling off production lines over a hundred and fifty years ago.
Fiction
Status Quo
The novella Status Quo by Drew Wagar mentions Onrira as the birthplace of James Feynman and as the location of a top secret Faulcon de Lacy research laboratory.
James Feynman was from the planet Onrira, thirty-something, tall, thin and dark–haired, with a hint of premature grey around the temples.
[...] Of course, the engine design was beyond secret: this newly-built Faulcon de Lacy lab at Onrira dealt in technology way beyond state of the art: there was stuff here that wouldn’t be mainstream until long after he was dead. |
(Status Quo, Chapter 1) |
Frog Space Rickshaw
Onrira is where Jaswindar Singh and his descendants established the Space Rickshaw Co. (Frog Space Rickshaw)
Alliances
In the SW corner of Chart One - Two Corporate State Rich Industrial Systems have formed what have some considered to be an unnatural alliance. After a failed attempt to form this partnership nineteen Galactic Standard Years ago, where, during the final, delicate negotiations, the felines of Ensoreus finally lost control of their instinctive urges and began to knock the Blue Frog delegates of Onrira around the table covering them in fluff in the process.
Both sides have denied that all of the most recent negotiations have been undertaken via Holo-3D Vid-Conferencing to avoid a repeat of the embarrassing incident.
In the short period since this financial product from "Alliances" hit the market the number of Commanders visiting these two systems has increased by 32.8% (the only requirement to hold an "Alliances" account is that new account holders must spend at least 21 standard days at one of the systems main stations).
It is said that the logo for "Alliances" harks back to the days when both systems had access to only the ageing Coriolis Stations and, as their Marketing Department points out, the logo also imitates the compass directions of North, South, East and West - clearly showing their intentions to spread the benefits of an Alliances account to the four corners of Chart One.

If every Credit counts, try this: Best would be to buy computers or excavators and haul them to Erlaza. They give you about 49 to 58%, at least in Erlaza. Besides, the computers can also be sold well enough in Larais. What's more, in the Onrira system, you can see the first torus station ever built and the Faulcon de Lacy laboratories. In this high-tech system you can purchase almost everything you need to improve and harden your ship. |
