			== Tie-in Material Information ==

			* ''The ''[[Encyclopedia Galactica]] ''(a non-canonical piece of merchandise published in 1979) transposes [[Sectar (planet)\|Sectar]] for Equellus, and vice versa:''

			: Sectar is a remote planet in the [[Hatari sector]] dotted with fewer than twenty small human settlements. Large [[Ovines\|Ovine]] ranches once exported large quantities of meat to the Colonies; orbiting freighters loaded up from small shuttles and froze their cargos by exposure to the chill of space for the long journey home. Today the [[Oviner\|Oviners]] raise small herds for subsistence that provide them with milk products and clothing as well as meat. Cut off from Colonial civilization, technology on Sectar has reverted to a primitive level. Its population is largely defenseless; their most powerful weapons are simple [[Number Eight\|Numo]] guns. Sectar would be an easy prey for any hostile, advanced race. It remains undisturbed only because it is so poor that no conqueror would waste time or energy on it. <ref>{{cite book\|last=Kraus\|first=Bruce\|authorlink=\|authorlinkurl=\|coauthors=\|year=1979\|title=[[Encyclopedia Galactica]]\|publisher=\|location=\|id=\|pages=50}}</ref>
