Kaetetôã is a planet in an unknown location, and notable for being the homeworld of the intelligent Tetatae species. It has no known connection to the Inner Sphere or any region of space known to humanity, and was reached only by accidential misjumps.
The system contains two different worlds suitable for human habitation, a planet (Kaetetôã) and a large moon called "Far Country" by the humans. Either of these names could arguably be applied to the star system as a whole, for which no specific name was established.
In the Tetatae language, Kaetetôã literally means "Earth and Sky".
On at least two occasions, JumpShips from the Draconis Combine jumping out of the Salford system misjumped to Kaetetôã's system by accident: On 9 November 2510, the Leviathan-class JumpShip Raiden tried to jump from Salford to Brailsford but misjumped to Kaetetôã instead and was wrecked in the process. Almost exactly 546 years later, on 7 November 3056, the Scout-class JumpShip Telendine suffered the same fate in an attempt to jump from Salford to a classified destination. In both cases, surviving DropShips and lifeboats made planetfall on Kaetetôã. Untypically as it may be, both JumpShips emerged from the misjump not inert but speeding towards the planet at high speed (around 700,000 km/h), and the wreckage of the Raiden ended up orbiting Kaetetôã where it was detected by the survivors from the Telendine.
It is not kown wether the Raiden materialized at the Zenith or Nadir Jump Point of the system, or possibly an irregular pirate jump point. Initial plans of the crew called for undocking the DropShips after six days of travel towards Kaetetôã, indicating this to be the minimum travel distance from the emergence point. Similarly, it is unknown where exactly in the system the Telendine emerged.
Geography
Kaetetôã appears to be roughly similar to earth, and sports plains, rivers and jungles as well as mountains. Survivors from the Raiden colonized the world with three separate settlements.
