Astro News Radio is a news corporation operating out of the Aleph Cluster, which provides news about the headline events within the cluster.

Of the radio companies which operated around Traveller, Astro News Radio started as a council-sponsored community radio program in Unity Prime. Once the station became popular enough to become self-sufficient with community donations and begun reeling in large stories around the state with its journalists, ANR became an independent outlet of news media, broadcasting statewide.

During its flourishing period, ANR was given numerous buyout offers and merger offers by other radio and media companies, but the radio station was profitable enough to stay independent. Astro News Radio branched out into playing music, taking Aleph Cluster's love for New Wave and Funk music. Playing music along with news broadcasts and the occasional advertisement was a winning formula.

Currently based out of many stations throughout the galaxy. Their base of operations is in Sargasso on the Traveller Colony. Important and emergency broadcasts are translated into many different languages, with some assistance from Unity Protocol's languages database and translation team.

Astro News Radio is known to have have many entertaining hosts in the past. The most notable host at the moment is Dexter Marlin from Sargasso, an enthusiastic man with a love for playing funk tunes after the news is done and the messages from the sponsors are over.

• Mitch Murder - Frantic Aerobics
