The colony soon flourished and has, since then, become one of the Big Five Worlds of the Empire of Mankind in the Megara Nebula. Although it's importance has been overshadowed by the growth of Pandora which has surpassed the planet. Nevertheless, Turon remains the administrative capital of the Megara Nebula and a center of manufacturing and the aristocratic administration of the so called "Galaxy of Silk".
