Uxton F1 is a desert planet in the Ibetsus system notable for its yellow skies, generous lakes, and sprawling ocean. It is buffeted by occasional fire storms, and the temperature drops precipitously at night. The heat and frost hazards can both be avoided by wading into the planet's bodies of water, which remain at a temperature easily managed by an exosuit.
The sun rises and sets over the poles, inspiring the convention of distinguishing the hemispheres as "southrise" and "northrise."
// BEACON-NOTE: // This page archives the state of Uxton F1 during the Second Shift Era. It has since been altered. (See: #Era Changes).

Waypoints
Uxton's waypoints seem to be fairly spread out, with no particular type standing out as most common.
Landmarks
- Otney Base: A base built by the Beacon-Entity.
- The Northrise Portal: Uxton's only known portal, marked by a purple beacon.
- The Clawmarks at Pink: A formation of deep pools resembling giant clawmarks, marked by a pink beacon.
Important Events
Uxton F1 is arguably where the concept for the Atlas Keepers first arose. As the Beacon-Entity's work on Otney Base unfolded, the dwelling took shape as a communal space almost of its own accord. This realization led to the construction of a visitors' wing and the first hopes that friends might take up temporary residence there.
- The building of Otney Base: The Beacon-Entity constructs the unofficial first meeting space for the Atlas Keepers.
