Vesta

Vesta is the second extrasolar colony established by humans.

History
Vesta was discovered and surveyed by NASA engineers in 2069 following success om Tellus.

The ship, SS Moscow was constructed to carry several farm animals in stasis while the crew and colonists remained awake to run the ship. In 2072, the ship was launched.

Vesta was reached by the ship in 2079 and landed on a subcontinent in the southern hemisphere. The colonists used the ship to build the first few structures of the colony and released the animals from stasis so that the colony can start transporting goods.

Several Balduk and Vanoben settled on the planet.
