Simang is a gas giant in the far reaches of the [[Taanab System]]. It is the most remote planet it in the system, and is orbited by a single moon,[[Simang A]]. Because of its distance from the system's star, temperatures on Simang are frigid, and the outer layers of the planet have frozen into icy, crystalline cloud formations. Such formations make navigation into any but the outermost layers nearly impossible. Pressures deeper inside the planet keep the compounds that comprise Simang in different liquid and gaseous states. By percentage of composition, the most plenteous gasses are [[rethen]], [[carbon dioxide]], and [[ammonia]].

The earliest explorers concluded that Simang was not suitable for either colonization or mining. This early declaration in addition to the planet's distance from [[Taanab]] or [[Taum Reese]] severely limited settlement even centuries or millennia later. As of late very few sentients live on Simang. The only permanent settlement is a small Trade Federation outpost tasked with maintaining the planet's shield grid and assisting any endangered vessels in the distant corners of the system. The planet has never been considered to have much a strategic value. 

Researchers from the [[Federation University System]] have secured permits to construct an observatory in orbit around Simang, taking advantage of its distance from the system's sun and lack of light pollution. News of these plans have reignited some interest in the often overlooked planet, but despite the permits quick approval construction of the observatory has been stalled for several years now for unknown reasons.
