Salusa Secundus is the third planet of Gamma Waiping. Salusa Secundus was the homeworld of House Corrino, and the second stopping point in migrations of the Wandering Zensunni. Fremen tradition says they were slaves on S.S. for nine generations. A unnamed House (subsequently completely obliterated from the universe and from history) used forbidden atomics on the planet in an attempt to destroy the Corrinos. The attack made the planet mostly uninhabitable so the royal court was moved to Kaitain. Later the planet was turned into a prison where House Corrino recruits survivors into the dreaded Sardaukar.
