| abstract | - FC-3 or Ferolis Ceratun 3 (in full) was a incineration planet located 15 light years from Cuplar. It was originally a vegatation-devoid planet with compatible methane rivers and seas home to 100s of different methane-based microscopic and macroscopic organisms. In the 2450s, after 16 years of usage, it was turned inhospitable and ravaged with industrial fumes from constant incineration of Cuplan garbage. Although inhospitable, it continued to be packed up with garbage. FC-3 was deposited with 304,052,037 metric tonnes of garbage per year. Incinerated via being compacted into large, cubical piles of 1000s of tonnes of garbage, then blasted with plasma beams from Incineration vessels. Approximately 60,000-70,000 people worked on the planet, multiple 1000s coming in and out each day as liaisons, administrators, temporary replacements, etc. The Centurian Imperium, although opposed to the decimation of the planets ecology, allowed the planet to be used continuously, although their calculations showed the technological and sociological singularity of Cuplans could make the planet have to work beyond it's abilities within 500 years.
