Description

The Cairo system is located in the Roberts Quadrant of the Vega Sector. The system consists of a strong blue (B0V) main sequence star with two terrestrial planets, three gas giants and an extensive asteroid field.

The Cairo System hosted a strategically located Confederation base until the system was captured by the Kilrathi in the early stages of the war. In the battle to conquer the system, the Kilrathi were unable to capture the Confederation base resulting in its destruction.

Though there are no habitable planets in the system, it is rich in natural resources and hosts a Kilrathi Star Base with dry dock in orbit around Cairo II. To date, it appears as if the Kilrathi have not attempted to exploit the natural resources on the planets, much less the resources potentially available in the asteroid field. This may be a result of their efforts to build the dry dock space station as well as continued disruptive incursions by Confederation forces into the system.
