tHE MALOR SYSTEM: MALOR

Planet:

Name: Malor

Mean orbital radius: 152m km

Rotational period 23.4hrs

Planetary diameter: 13200km

Year length: 375.6 days

Average temp: ~278K

Atmosphere:

            Pressure: 1.2

            Composition:             1% carbon dioxide

                                                73% nitrogen

                                                22% oxygen

                                                4% other, argon and methane mostly

Summary: practically small planet in itself, thought to have been captured.

 

Summary:

Surface coverage: land covers a quarter of the surface, seas are salty, similar in composition to Earth’s, four major continents, two are polar, the other two lie in the temperate to the tropical climates. The equatorial regions have many archipelagoes and small landmasses. There are two small ice sheets on the polar continents

Geology: planet very rich in metals, and much active volcanism. Plate tectonics still active, 6 major plates. World also generates large numbers of volcanic islands, most remaining active for very long time periods.

Climate: most of the planets enjoys tropical climates, up to the 50° latitudes, the rest covers the usual temperate to tundra. Axial inclination provides moderate seasonal changes. Weather is highly variable, monsoons and seasonal storm can be expected nearly anywhere, more violent forms of weather, hurricanes and superstorms, mostly above or below equatorial regions. Moderate tides produced by moons, stronger in combination.

Life: diverse, colonizing all major ecological niches, but life itself is fairly limited to plant analogues and simple animal like organisms. The plant life is incredibly diverse, somewhere in the deep history, some forms of plant life has evolved towards animal functions, while still being photosynthetic they have an ability to move, some are even aerial (though are gas buoyed), an evolution of nervous system like components can be observed in more advanced types. Animal life limited to worm and coelenterate like creatures for the most part. Bacteria and protist like life as diverse as Earth’s. No biota is harmful to the colonists, no disease reported or discovered while planet being surveyed.

Colonies: the planet was open to colonization in federation year 81 (earth time 2005), and in by earth time 2200, the planetary population is about 200 million, with most colonists being either Trenoc or Panatrak, human population is around 40 million. Colonies mostly lay in the equatorial region, on the islands and small landmasses, though some colonies to be found in far north, the positions of both put them out of the way of the worst of the weather. Population includes large numbers of biologists who are still investigating the diverse flora 300 hundred years after the first detailed survey missions.
