is newly settled in "The Acolytes" and "The Green Thumb";
has been settled for barely two generations and is the local Cordy HQ in Virgin Planet;
is a port of call for a Nomad ship in The Peregrine;
is Dunham's base planet in "Symmetry";
is briefly mentioned in "The Pirate."
Thunderhouse has:
a notoriously slack astronautical academy in Virgin Planet;
the Half Moon bar by the Grand Canal in The Peregrine.
These places are not as solid as Hermes, Avalon, Dennitza etc in the Technic History but they do make acceptable future historical background locations, nevertheless. I do not think that we are finished with Poul Anderson's Psychotechnic History just yet.

Kaor, Paul!
What I thought was to think the blurb in the illustration you chose rather silly! Anyone who reads either version of VIRGIN PLANET will soon discover the situation is much complicated and interesting than the blurb would lead you to think.
Ad astra! Sean
