    Tarsonis

    Tarsonis is a Terran colony, landing site of the supercarrier Nagglfar. The planet has a temperate climate and a core continent. It was the most advanced of the three original Terran colonies and capital world of the Terran Confederacy.
    It was the capital world of the Terran Confederacy until it fell to Zerg lured there by Psi Emitters planted by Alpha Squadron at the end of StarCraft Episode I. After the death of the Overmind, Sarah Kerrigan used Tarsonis as her base of operations. After killing the second Overmind, Kerrigan relocated to an orbital platform over Char, and Tarsonis is assumed abandoned.

    Moria

    Moria is a Terran colony, one of the largest resource nodes in the Koprulu Sector; landing site of the supercarrier Argo. The colony is defended by the Kel-Morian Combine.
    It was on Moria that Praetor Fenix located all the resources for Kerrigan's assault against the United Earth Directorate forces occupying Korhal IV in StarCraft Episode VI.

    Umoja

    Umoja is a Terran colony, one of the original three; landing site of supercarrier Reagan and crash site of supercarrier Sarengo. It is defended by the neutral Umojan Protectorate.

    Korhal IV

    Korhal IV is a Terran colony. One of the core Confederate worlds originally settled by Tarsonian colonists, this planet rose up against the Confederacy, and in retaliation the Confederacy launched a massive planetary bombardment of nuclear weaponry aimed at eliminating the dissents, transforming the planet into a nuclear desert. The survivors of the rebellion called themselves the Sons of Korhal.
    By the time of the fall of the Confederacy, the planet had de-radiated enough to allow resettlement. When the Sons of Korhal became the Terran Dominion, its leader Arcturus Mengsk made it the Dominion throne world. More recently, the planet changed hands among the Terran Dominion, the United Earth Directorate, and the Terran Dominion again. Its capital city is Augustgrad.

    Chau Sara

    Chau Sara was an outlying, but nevertheless important Terran colony. It was one of the first Terran planets to be invaded by the Zerg. Little is known about its current state, except that since then it has been purified of all life by the Protoss. After the bombardment, according to StarCraft: Liberty's Crusade, an ice age started on the planet, result of a nuclear winter, and the planet deviated four degrees from its orbit. This is also a testimony to the power of Protoss weaponry and technology.

    Mar Sara

    Mar Sara was an outlying Terran colony. This planet was invaded by the Zerg after Chau Sara. Its fate was similar to Chau Sara's. Homeworld of James (Jim) Raynor.

    Antiga Prime

    Antiga Prime was an outying Terran colony, the first world to openly revolt against the Confederacy since the incineration of Korhal IV.
    The renegade activist coalition known as the Sons of Korhal was responsible for instigating the rebellion. During the battle of Antiga Prime, a Psi Emitter was planted in the Confederate base by Sarah Kerrigan to attract the Zerg and destroy the Confederate forces. It is now a lifeless, purified world. It is also upon this planet that General Edmund Duke crashed and was saved and recruited by Sons of Korhal leader Arcturus Mengsk.

    Dylar IV

    Dylar IV had been an important Terran colony, a primary world of the Confederacy and base of operations of Omega Squadron. It is believed to have been overrun by the Zerg. Since then, it has been recolonized by the Terran Dominion, and shipyards have been constructed in planetary orbit around it. Here, Battlecruisers were fueled and repaired.
    In a swift action, the United Earth Directorate stole the Battlecruisers, defeated the Dominion counterattack, and impressed the Dylarian defense forces into their fleet. This was the first major spaceship battles between the Dominion and the United Earth Directorate. The UED has left the sector, so Dylar IV's current status is unclear. According to StarCraft: Alternity, the planet was a former Protoss colony world and was given back to the Protoss.

    Brontes IV

    Brontes IV was a Terran colony, one of the primary worlds of the Confederacy. It quickly was overrun by the Zerg. Little is known about its current state.

    Tyrador IX

    Tyrador IX was an important Terran colony, a primary world of the Confederacy. Little is known of its current state, but it is rumored that it escaped Zerg infestation. If it is still populated, it is most likely a planet of the Dominion.

    Braxis

    Braxis, a small world and a Terran Dominion colony by the time the United Earth Directorate fleet reached the Koprulu Sector. Much earlier, it had been a Protoss colony, by the name of Khyrador. It was fortified by the Terran Dominion shortly after the death of the Overmind. It is presumed that it is the closest Koprulu Sector object to Earth, since the UED fleet first landed here. The Psi Disruptor was set up there once it was captured at Tarsonis and shipped to Braxis. In Resurrection IV, a disaster has struck Braxis, homeworld of the Ursadon. The UED, in its opening assault, took control of the capital city of Boralis.

    Vyctor 5

    Vyctor 5, a wasteland planet a day's travel from Umoja, which features a stable weather formation, the Fujita Pinnacle. It was a Terran Confederacy world and is featured in StarCraft: Ghost. According to StarCraft: Uprising it is found in the Koprulu star system. Its capital is Lockston.

    Dark Moon

    Dark Moon is the title for an unnamed moon (presumably). It is not known what planet it revolves around, if the moon actually has a name, or where it is located (although it appears to be found on a journey between Char and Shakuras). It is featured in the mission Dark Origin, and is the base of Samir Duran and his Protoss/Zerg Hybrid.

    Aiur

    Aiur is the home world of the Protoss. Jungles and oceans cover most of the planet.
    It was the primary target of the Zerg infestation. All Protoss are thought to have fled the planet by now, and the Zerg have moved on. On a few occasions, it has been used as a temporary staging ground: once while Jim Raynor and Fenix fled the UED, and once for a time when Zeratul and his brethren returned to rescue a few Protoss survivors that had been left behind. Both times it was shown to still be infested with Zerg.

    Shakuras

    Shakuras is a planet devoid of vegetation. It was the planet the Dark Templar fled to when they were exiled long ago by the Conclave.
    More recently, Protoss survivors from Aiur sought refuge there. Zerg infestation was cleansed with the help of an ancient Xel'Naga temple, and the twin crystals Uraj and Khalis. The Protoss race currently resides there.

    Zerus

    Zerus is the planet that was the homeworld of the Zerg, located near the core of the galaxy. An inhospitable ash-world that was once full of insectoid creatures, it served as the birthplace of the Zerg race.

    Char

    Char is a tectonically active lava world which orbits an outlying binary star system. It is one of the richest resource nodes ever visited by Terrans. It was the staging area of the Zerg during their search for, and consequent invasion of, the Protoss homeworld of Aiur. The planet is currently the headquarters of the Zerg Queen of Blades. It is not clear whether or not Char is within the Koprulu Sector, but it is presumed so as it is labeled as a Terran Dominion border world.

    Abaddon

    Abaddon, a lava-drenched planet which would have been featured in StarCraft: Ghost. Photographic evidence indicate the United Earth Directorate may have left or placed a base on the planet.

    Earth

    Earth is also a key planet in the Starcraft Universe, being both the original home of the Human colonists in the Koprulu Sector, and the capital planet of the United Earth Directorate. Due to its location 60,000 light years from the Koprulu Sector, it still has yet to be featured in the games themselves, outside a brief mention in a UED propaganda video concerning the victory on Char. It is unknown whether it will be featured more heavily in future story lines.

    I would travel to Aiur, but BEFORE the Zerg invasion. I'm sure the Protoss cities and technologies would be quite a sight to behold.

    i'm with you PKZeppelin, check out how Earth has changed.

    To be honest, i have a hard enough time pondering the possibility of moving country, state even... let alone the bloody planet.

    I'd be too afraid to go anywhere else.

    :powerup: mate, i like this planet lore/poll thread of yours.

    good on ya

    Then visit Shakuras for some nice, friendly talk about the void, then go to Aiur and learn how to teleport using mind power. ;D
