Ragnar

Ragnar is a gas giant located on the outer edge of the Helios Gamma/Delta-system, and site of the Ragnar Anchorage munitions station.

Ragnar is wracked by violent storms, though Ragnar Anchorage appears to be located in an area of relative calm within the storms. The storms themselves create a high level of electromagnetic discharges, which interfere with a range of systems, including a ship's ability to plot FTL-jumps. While this effectively hides the Anchorage station from enemy scans, it also means that a ship must cross the "EM threshold" above the main bulk of the storms before attempting a jump.

Another side effect of the storm is the emission of a form of radiation that adversely affected the Cylons' silica pathways.
