P lanet: Theta 295 ‘Fort Haven’ Research Outpost The planet which had been designated Theta 295 was on the outer reaches of the galaxy in a region that was newly discovered over seven years ago, it took four years to build the research outpost which was named ‘Fort Haven’. The outpost was placed there to study the planet and learn everything they could about it they even set up a massive drilling platform to mine the deep into the ground for ore and rock samples.
