    This document provides background information on the Venturi Project, an operation run by ByChem Corporation to extract rare biochemicals Cyc-DE and Meta-TI discovered in the atmosphere of the gas giant planet Venturi. Crews on the floating extraction platform Jetsom and orbiting gas mining ship Moneyspider work to extract and purify the chemicals in secret. The project is located in the uninhabited Belnafer star system and faces challenges from Venturi's stormy atmosphere and isolation.
