Asteroid 24-V-234 Tau is a large habitable asteroid located in Asteroid Field WA+91 0 Tau. The asteroid was the first habitable asteroid discovered by One Nation Under Jou in the Morobe sector. It was discovered in Year 24 on Day 234 by Asgeirr Growlington, a pilot from the Scrapper Guild who volunteered to assist with prospecting of asteroid fields in the Morobe sector.
The asteroid was subsequently secured by the Abraaxi Company under the command of Captain Alani Myrtel as part of Project Frontier 1. Foundations of the first city were laid down on the same day as the discovery of the asteroid, and the last city was constructed on Day 236. The final facility required to secure control of the asteroid began construction on Day 238, concluding the Project Frontier 1. Control of the asteroid was gained on Day 245.
The asteroid is currently the smallest celestial body controlled by One Nation and it is inhabited only by a small number of scientists, miners and security guards, until it is decided by the federal government what is to become of the asteroid.
The asteroid received its cartographic name from the asteroid field where it is located. Tau is a letter from the Old Tionese alphabet, a common practice in galactic naming conventions of asteroids and asteroid fields.
