Skopios was a large asteroid in inter-system space, close to the planet Elysia.[1] Although it possessed a thin but breathable atmosphere,[2] Skopios had no native life. It was, however, home to an Adeptus Mechanicus Research Station carrying out dangerous experiments and analysing potentially hazardous discoveries. During the Skopios Incident in 873.M38, Skopios was destroyed by the Imperial Navy and a large area surrounding its remains was quarantined for at least three hundred years.[1]
Notes
- Note 1: Skopios is described as being a week's journey away from Elysia by warp travel.[1] Elysia is in the Ultima Segmentum.[3]
