Fictional info (?) |
Suggested name | Sida-uq |
Planet type | Cold planet |
It is named after the deity Sida-uq, the demon of dreams.
When viewed from Peclitea, this proximity to HD 25723 means the planet can only be seen near the western or eastern horizon during the early evening or early morning.
It may have had methane oceans in the past, but these would have vaporized as the temperature rose due to a runaway greenhouse effect.
Optical ground-based telescopes are typically limited to resolving features about 150 kilometers across when Sida-uq is closest because of Peclitea's atmosphere.
Because of its rapid rotation, the planet's shape is that of an oblate spheroid (it has a slight but noticeable bulge around the equator).
The dark oceans are populated by aggressive interesting bacteria, the "Roprax-cal", that feed everywhere by devouring the somewhat smaller "Deskeka-pho". Most Roprax-cal are related to Persete'lis and have 12 tentacles and vary in length from 70 to 120 cm. Most Roprax-cal can survive temperatures from 60 to 130°C and extreme gravity. |
