The largest interstellar trade center outside the Rigel system, Antares is the commercial and financial capital of the Confederation. This is due in large part to Antares' central location and to the cultural predominance of Antaren business scientists. Many say that if a commodity exists anywhere in the galaxy, one can find it on Antares. With the exception of slave trade, Antares has no port-of-call restrictions regarding the nature of goods imported to the planet.
