- | The metal-rich asteroids of the system's inner ring were the Holy Grail of the initial expansion from [[Earth]]. The factories and habitats in the Halo predate the [[CSA|system government]] in many places, and their output of metals, minerals and water fuel the industries of most of the other planets and stations short of the [[Kuiper belt]]. The Halo facilities were instrumental in providing the ice asteroids used to terraform [[Mars]], and many of the dynasties ruling swathes of the belt owe their fortunes to the mad scramble for farmland that came with human expansion from Earth. | + | The metal-rich asteroids of the system's inner ring were the Holy Grail of the initial expansion from [[Earth]].
