Cestus III, the third planet of the Cestus system, is a Federation colony located on the frontier of Federation space. Cestus III is an arid world, rarely exceeding 30°C. There is a single, large ocean that, due to lack of tidal influences, is essentially a single, gigantic, stagnant pond. One large land mass fills the southern hemisphere, along which runs a large mountain chain. The northern hemisphere is made up of several island chains. Shackleford Observatory and Travers are both located on the southern land mass.
Travers colony was established in 2259, after Cestus III was discovered by USS Coronado, a Ranger-class Explorer. The colony holds 3,212 Federation colonists, who are conducting hybridization experiments with the local flora, as well as mining for useful ore. According to reports, these experiments and operations are making remarkable progress.
