Ganymede was an Imperial world[1], until experimentation with the Squat technology of Warp-cores led to the place being "lost" to the Imperium "forever" and becoming "the eternal habitation of abomination".[2] More precisely the "unlawful" experimentation with Warp coil technology resulted in the creation of a Warp gate.[3] Since then, the Imperium has prevented anybody from setting foot on the world and wards space travel away from it.[1]
