layer chemistry in composition Original
core assumed to be silicaceous Density: 1.21 Surface g: 27.22m/s/s Axial inclination: 1° Magnetic field: massive
and stable Moons:
Extensive 12 major satellites, with very different types present. Two
possess life, one seemed to have transferred life to the other about
2.3billion years ago, as biochemistry seems to share a common ancestor,
probably bacterial conveyed by meteorite impact. The two major moons are
listed below. Major

field: moderate, fairly stable similar to Earth’s Summary:
life bearing satellite, more information here. Summary: super-jovian
planet, unusual and nearly unprecedented in satellite type within
federation space, planet thought to have migrated inwards. The larger
moons are thought to have been captured during this migration, life
seems to have emerged when these planets had settled into their orbits,
and not from pre-capture times. |
