The
Hestian Trojans is a large and elongated family of asteroids that librates at the L5 point trailing the gas giant
Hestia. Most of the bodies here are dark and contain little to no water, however, the faint presence of
Thaumium suggests an origin beyond the planet
Zindra. The Trojans were colonized late into the
Hestian Rush.
Amongst the Trojans is the large asteroid
89-Niadeen, one of the largest of its kind at 210km diameter. 89-Niadeen is home to several research outposts as well as isolated
Hhrot Dominion mining facilities. Librating nearby is the small orbital station
Naykin's Folly , which acts as a spartan but much-needed hub in the sparcely-inhabited region.
