Tionisla is well known in the region. In the past it was the scene of some of the most massive battles the galaxy has ever seen. The result? The huge Tionisla Orbital Graveyard, now the final resting place of the super-rich and famous. Due to their ingrained shyness all Tionislans wear masks in public, their heads completely encased in baroque constructions. If you like good company, noise, fun, excitement - go elsewhere.

Tionisla Orbital Graveyard

A view on the Graveyard

As described in the novella The Dark Wheel, the Tionisla system features a unique installtion: the Tionisla Orbital Graveyard.

Famous Planets 2.0

Tionisla is well known in the region. In the past it was the scene of some of the most massive battles the galaxy has ever seen. The result? The huge Tionisla Orbital Graveyard, now the final resting place of the super-rich and famous. Due to their ingrained shyness all Tionislans wear masks in public, their heads completely encased in baroque constructions. If you like good company, noise, fun, excitement - go elsewhere. (Famous Planets 2.0.OXP)

Fiction

The Dark Wheel

The Dark Wheel is a novella by Robert Holdstock. It was included with the original game Elite, and is available on Ian Bell's Webpage on Elite.

The best way to see the wreckplace at Tionisla is to approach it from the Sun (a reasonably safe thing to do since Tionisla, being a Democracy has few pirates in its system). Tionisla itself is a bright yellow world, and the cemetery is always between the planet and its star. As you fly close, the whole strange graveyard seems to be expanding from the circle of the world behind.

The first thing you see is a shimmering, silver disc, a double spiral of tiny bright points. It slowly turns: it's a galaxy in miniature, with the same intense blur of light at its centre, because here is where the biggest tombs are to be found.

Come closer and soon you can see that the stars in this galaxy are markers, great lumps of metal, heavily inscribed with the words and symbols of a thousand religions. The cemetery is a bizarre and moving sight. The markers are rarely less than a thousand feet across. There are chrome-alloy crosses, titanium Stars of David, duralium henges, and all the strange symbolic shapes of the worlds, and the minds and the faiths that have come to die in this Star traveller's special place.

Rough Guide

Tionisla

The Rough Guide on the Ooniverse has an entry on Tionisla.

Tionisla – the dead centre of the galaxy, ho ho. Death might be the Great Leveller, but this is one system where wealthy corpses still hold themselves above the common herd.

You’ll have seen it, if you’ve ever done the run: the Tionisla Orbital Graveyard, “Togy” to its friends, hanging there in solemn splendour between sun and planet. A galaxy of tombs and caskets, sepulchres and mausolea, monuments to past glories and dead heroes. Dead villains, too, truth be told, because it’s nothing more nor less than hard currency that gets you a spot in this cemetery halo now, and vice pays so much better than virtue in our bad old universe.

The Traders Almanach

If there is not much room left in your ship, this is my advice to you: Best choice in Tionisla is to ship either computers or antique Tionislan hunting crossbows to Isinor. They give you about 33 Creds plus for every ton. With a little lower gain you can also haul the the computers to Bemaera or Zaalela.
