The Union’s botanical division, or to call it by its correct name, Union Botanical, truly is the stuff of marvels. Traversing Union sectors and distant Octants, they work tirelessly to cultivate and maintain biodiversity across planets, moons, and orbitals. This delicate task requires constant calibration and careful attention. So many species of plant life were lost to early human ecological destruction that their revival—achieved through ingenious methods—still demands ongoing oversight. The division’s scientists, both human and droid alike, utilise specially designed botanical ships to carry out their missions, some of which remain abroad for years at a time. The scope of their work goes beyond simple preservation. Union Botanists are continuously experimenting with hybrid species, adapting flora to thrive in the most inhospitable environments. Their research often plays a vital role in terraforming projects, making barren moons and planets habitable. The knowledge they gain not onl...
