Are those figures from CT?

Or a later version?

p.s. I could never really see a 'merchantman' mucking around in the 'outsystem' but I *could* see a scout, on some sort of assignment, or perhaps a research party of some sort. And then there's also the regular or subsector IN security patrols, not to mention a local system, if present, navy's activities.

 None of the stuff
 listed are vaguely worth dealing with the security problems
 of being in the outsystem, and outside the range of friendly
 support.
 This is mostly about the economics - and it's
 cheaper to go one extra jump to a biosphere to get your
 water, nitrogen and whatnot than to haul in enough guns to
 secure you mining operation.
 Remember, transport in trav costs around
 (Cr25 plus Cr50 per parsec) per ton, and maybe a twentieth
 of that to get into orbit.

 Heck, the stuff about asteroid (and planetismal)
 formation comes from

 discussions *many* years ago here on the TML. Plus some
 reading and

 articles.

 I keep meaning to take the time to mine thru the archives
 and collect

 stuff into reference materials to put up on the web.
