As a service to spacefarers, the Travellers' Aid Society publishes travel zone classifications which indicate the degree of danger a world or system presents to visitors. Advisories are for what are considered short term issues, Alerts are for longer durations or active situations.
A Green Alert represents "no danger" when travelling to or from the listed designation. Unless otherwise indicated a system should be considered Green.
An Amber Advisory represents "Existing conditions are favorable for the development of a potential threat, caution is advised."
An Amber Alert represents "A potential threat currently exists, appropriate caution should be exercised."
A Red Advisory represents "Conditions are favorable for the development of a serious danger to travel. Unnecessary travel should be avoided, extreme caution should be exercised."
A Red Alert represents "A dangerous threat currently exists. The location is either quarantined, interdicted by a higher authority, or currently at war. Travel is restricted under local legal authority."
