Venus Cloud City, Io Sulfur Works and Europa Ice Station join the map
(fixed positions, Io and Europa riding with Jupiter), with their
fuel prices, range factors, shippers and sprites. Each makes a
Standard good so boards work there. The first-purchase balance window
widens to 45-95 minutes (user decision).

Positions, distances, range checks, trip times, fuel and the no-strand
