Ferron II

Ferron II is a coreless, uninhabited planet in the [Ferron system](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/Vy2Qo1dB18-ferron-system), [United Empire of Earth (UEE)](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/VyvyKxy4v6-united-empire-of-earth). Second from the system's sun, its relative position makes it only a tenuous candidate for [terraforming](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/V3qgj8vjnj-terraforming). Ever since its neighbor [Asura (Ferron III)](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/0qaPo2JOj1-asura-ferron-iii) ran dry of resources, many small mining consortiums set up operations there, hoping to discover resources that major companies consider too unprofitable to harvest. The [Governors Council](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/0rqzA55WZ3-uee-governors-council) of Asura has held multiple debates over the past decade on whether to fund a private company to terraform Ferron II on their behalf.
