New Taurus

 

New Taurus is a planetary system orbiting a orange K-class star.  The system lies in the Taurus Constellation of the Hyades Region.

 
New Taurus was first settled by various groups on colonists from nearby worlds.  Many questioned whether or not the planet could support a large population , as parts of the planet are uncomfortably warm for human settlers. 

 

The warm world has a "ring of fire" located around the equator and becomes more temperate moving towards the poles.  The bulk of human settlements have developed in the upper latitudes moving into the polar regions.
