Newhall is a newly-terraformed planet with large
oceans. Stands to reason that water is the planet’s
primary commodity. Newhall’s people live on small
island chains or on floating stations on the oceans.
Newhall’s water plants are always in need of
workers, hence the Alliance’s generous incentives for
settlers who move here. Terraforming new worlds
requires a lot of fresh water, and Newhall has water
to spare. Processing the water and preparing it for
shipping isn’t an unproblematic job, though. The
water needs to be collected, desalinated, purified,
packaged, then loaded for transport.
Those of Newhall don’t want to work the water
plants can make a good living fishing. And there’s
always the tourist centers, for those who like to
swim and cavort—or who want to tend to those
who do.
