| A major Tellarite mining concern, Blackhart is a planet rich in natural resources. It is also suspected of being one of the largest black market centers in the galaxy. Control of the planet is currently in dispute, due to various corporate rivalries. There are even unconfirmed reports that wealthy industrialists on Blackhart maintain Orion female slaves. The Confederation regional courts are taking the matter seriously, and are considering using Starfleet resources to inspect all incoming and outgoing traffic in the Alpha Vergoris system. | |
