There are fortunes to be made prospecting the asteroids. You've heard the rumours: hundred-ton chunks of platinum, uranium ore so pure it melts your cargo hold, derelict ships filled with forgotten Darrian technology. They're all free for the taking. All you need is a ship, a sharp eye on the sensors, and luck.

Sure, it's dangerous. Zero gravity and hard vacuum won't forgive your mistakes, and rescue is millions of kilometres away. Sure, you know that other belters have searched all their lives and never made that big strike.

But you know it's there. You can feel it. Maybe it's the next rock.

The Bowman system is one of the most extensive asteroid belts in the Spinward Marches, 360 million kilometres from rim to rim, its planetoids ranging from sandgrains to the 1,200-kilometre bulk of Larson's Rock. Composition shades from the nickel-iron alloy on the inner edge to carbonaceous chondrites on the cold rim. Population: A few thousand belters making a precarious living on the fringes of civilisation.

It also contains adventures for players to undertake, but these by no means exhaust the possibilities of the background.
