Suggested name | Skoll |
Planet type | Cold planet |
Its orbital period around Kepler-891 of 53 earth days is the longest of all the planets in its solar system. Skoll is a terrestrial planet with a thin atmosphere, having surface features reminiscent both of the impact craters of the Moon and the valleys, deserts, and polar ice caps of Earth. Skoll is orbiting Kepler-891 every 53 Earth days.
This cold planet is named after the deity Skoll, the creator of the sea.
As the closest planet to Petolis, Skoll has been a prime target for early interplanetary exploration. Plans have been proposed for rovers or more complex missions, but they are hindered by Skoll's strong magnetosphere.
The two polar ice caps appear to be made largely of ice.
The surface of this unfriendly planet is entirely crawling with odd and ultra advanced bacteria, the "Ararike Cor", that spend their life close to volcanos by eating plants at night. Ararike Cor are closely similar to the Epipa'euke but with 3 legs and vary in length from 80 to 160 mm. Ararike Cor are able to endure temperatures from 50 to 60°C and near-vacuum which is common near the poles. |
