List of major space colonies
MarsSurface: None
Moons: None
Orbit:
~~The MOCS (Mars Orbital ConStruction facility), a Large military installation / dockyard and a small star colony of about 600. It's a space station.
~~ 8 refuel/rearm facilities for warships and trade vessels, named Polstar 1 through 8
Saturn
Surface: None
Moons: Phoebe 45% (5% owned by AxeCapital specifically being underground territory near a tunnel entrance), Ijiraq, 50% of Albiorix, 50% of Fenrir, (note: Phoebe & Ijiraq are controlled by Kaltovar but the surfaces are administrated by 
Krystalveil. Albiorix and Fenrir are shared equally by Kaltovar and New Meixio, though NM controls the surface and Kaltovar controls the underground), 10% of Minmas specifically being underground near an entrance to the surface via deal with 
AxeCapital
Orbit:
~~ 164 refuel/rearm facilities for warships and trade vessels, named Constance 1 through 164
We own hundreds of small asteroids and interstellar bodies throughout the cosmos.
Western Solaran mooncluster
Moons: Charon, an artificial moon built in the 
The Republic of Western Sol international mooncluster. Charon is a recruiting center, arms depot, and training center where foreign recruits can sign up with the KDF to earn Kaltic citizenship and put their past behind them.
Kyberion
Surface: The entire planet. A rocky lava world rich in rare minerals and uranium ore. Only a few 100k organic people live here, with most of the land being inhabited by giant machinery which slurps up liquid metal for refinement.
Moons: Ashar, a medium military installation / dockyard and tiny star colony of about 200; Lucifer, a small moon made entirely from Depleted Uranium and mostly inhabited by machines sentient or otherwise. It's used as a storage facility for pre-recycled depleted uranium.
We also own hundreds of small asteroids which we use for trade, and have special mineral extraction rights over the majority of the solar system for hundreds of years, which enables us to strip mine anything not explicitly owned by others.
Slayer's Gaze Nebula
The star HD-152408 has been converted into a resource-pool via magnetorotational hypernova induction during Operation: Plumb Bob and is one of the most important sectors of Kaltic space. Various forms of matter are siphoned off from the star as high-energy plasma, and cooled into solid states. The heat removed during the cooling process is also used to generate energy, which is encapsulated in powerful batteries for domestic use and export.
The entire Slayer's Gaze Nebula is a result of the conversion process and therefore we claim resource extraction rights to it's entirety in perpetuity spanning for an area of approximately 138 Lightyears, but certain unoccupied areas within the Nebula are open to foreign claims and may collect resources so long as they do not attempt to prevent us from doing so.

ATTN: Wyrmhaven CMRHD TACOPS, Taskforce Resolute Vigil, Signals Intelligence & Physical Surveillance Squadron 47, Forward Diplomatic Cadre (FDC) 209512
Orders: Taskforce Resolute Vigil is to escort Object 38wth46t7un7hkidvw45g27ty42j65l89yf8/A and 38wth46t7un7hkidvw45g27ty42j65l89yf8/B to the vicinity of star HD-152408 and engage PERIMETER DEFENSE around AREA OF OPERATIONS with condition FAILURE UNACCEPTABLE until ORDERED TO DISENGAGE. Once PERIMETER DEFENSE is established FDC 209512 will set up high-power electromagnetic signalling devices to communicate our full sovreign control over the star-system as part of our integral territory. TACOPS will take control remotely of 38wth46t7un7hkidvw45g27ty42j65l89yf8/A once the transmitters become operational and use the object's powerful magnetic fields to increase the star's rotational speed.
Once the star's rotational speed achieves [REDACTED] TACOPS will take control of Object 38wth46t7un7hkidvw45g27ty42j65l89yf8/B and at this point TF Resolute Vigil will be ordered to withdraw. The "B" object will induce ecological changes in Star HD-152408 which accelerate it's decay process.
Within a few years, the poisoned and now rapidly spinning star will detonate with a force 10 times stronger than typical supernovae.
What is left behind will be a much smaller star containing very high levels of rare heavy elements including Uranium and Thorium, as well as a variety of useful lighter gasses. Additionaly, the resulting nebula will also be much larger and much richer in rare and heavy elements than most nebulae, and later will be able to birth several new stars which could be used as seedpoints for new artificial star systems.

TOI 700 d
A large life sustaining world that was terraformed by Kaltovar. It is currently an absolute democracy and was built for the members of the Freedom Division to move to if they truly couldn't tolerate Kaltovar's highly centralized form of government. In 100 years from it's founding it will be required to hold a referendum on whether to remain fully democratic or re-integrate it's political system with Kaltovar's.
