Aurelia was once inhabited by “The Ancients”. It was a military outpost world in their civilization, and its automated defenses are still operational, after billions of years. Their primary civilization was in the core of the galaxy. They created a virus that targeted and killed sentient life. It was used against them and destroyed them.
