Pyro V

Planets

Pyro V is the fourth planet from the sun of the Pyro system. It was given the classification of "Pyro V" when researchers came across strong evidence that its outermost moon once maintained a stable orbit around the system's star between Pyro III and Pyro V. When Pyro IV was…

Pyro I

Planets

Pyro I is the first planet from the sun of the Pyro system. Its thick, high-pressure atmosphere hides a strange landscape beset by powerful winds and lightning strikes. Under the clouds, there is an ecosystem of plants and animals that endure its extremely high temperatures,…

Pyro IV

Planets

Pyro IV is the outermost moon ofPyro V, and astronomers theorize that it was once the fourth planet from the sun of the Pyro system. At some point before Humans discovered Pyro, a massive celestial body collided with Pyro IV, catastrophically warping its landscape, destroying…

Fairo (Pyro 5d)

Moons

Fairo is the fourth moon from the gas giant Pyro V, Pyro system. A hotbed of seismic activity, Fairo experiences frequent earthquakes that disturb its deep oceans of brackish water. The moon has an unusual ecosystem that thrives both on the surface and under the sea, supported…

Adir (Pyro 5c)

Moons

Adir is the third moon from the gas giant Pyro V, Pyro system. Jagged mountains and rocky hills dominate its crater-ridden landscape. Because it lacks a protective atmosphere that would otherwise break apart most approaching celestial objects, its surface sees frequent impacts.…

Vatra (Pyro 5b)

Moons

Vatra is the second moon from the gas giant Pyro V, Pyro system. Its thick, high-pressure atmosphere of nitrogen and methane supports an ecosystem of plants that subsist on hydrocarbons instead of carbon dioxide. Some water is present on Vatra in the form of ice, but it is too…

Vuur (Pyro 5f)

Moons

Vuur is the sixth moon from the gas giant Pyro V, Pyro system. Thanks to an increased greenhouse effect in its dense carbon dioxide atmosphere, it is unusually warm for a moon so distant from its sun. Its carbon-rich soil supports forms of vegetation that utilize crystalline…

Fuego (Pyro 5e)

Moons

Fuego is the fifth moon from the gas giant Pyro V, Pyro system. Relatively temperate but still cold, it has a mostly carbon dioxide atmosphere with small percentages of nitrogen, sulfur dioxide, and oxygen. High amounts of iron-sulfide in its soil gives its surface a yellow and…

Ignis (Pyro 5a)

Moons

Ignis is the innermost moon of the gas giant Pyro V, Pyro system. The canyons and dry riverbeds on its surface suggest that liquid water once flowed there in the distant past. Its frigid average temperature and deadly atmosphere of sulfur dioxide creates an unfriendly…

Bloom (Pyro III)

Planets

Bloom (Pyro III) is the third planet from the sun of the Pyro system. Cold but naturally habitable, it became the epicenter of mining endeavors in Pyro. Pyrotechnic Amalgamated and other corporations constructed multiple staging sites, employees barracks, and processing centers…

Terminus (Pyro VI)

Planets

Terminus (Pyro VI) is the outermost world of the Pyro system. Its nitrogen-oxygen atmosphere is technically breathable, but contains high enough amounts of methane and carbon dioxide that it has a negative effect on one's health after extended exposure. Pyrotechnic Amalgamated…

Monox (Pyro II)

Planets

Monox (Pyro II) is the second planet from the sun of the Pyro system. Nicknamed "Monox" for the deadly carbon monoxide in its atmosphere, it has a temperate climate, and was seen as a viable candidate for terraforming shortly after its discovery. However, its proximity to the…

Akiro Cluster (Pyro Cluster Alpha)

Space

The Akiro cluster (pyro cluster alpha) is a dense asteroid cluster on the Pyro system. Situated in the L3 Lagrange point of Pyro I, the asteroids periodically move closer to the planet or farther away from it as they travel around their sun. Most were stripped of their most…

Pyro System

Planetary Systems

The Pyro system is an unclaimed planetary system that consists of a K-type flare star, five terrestrial planets, and a gas giant. Discovered in SEY 2493 by Pyrotechnic Amalgamated, it was not claimed by the United Nations of Earth (UNE) due in part to the dangers surrounding its…

Oberon V

Planets

Oberon V is a mesoplanet in the unclaimed Oberon system, and is the fifth planet from its star. Small and dense, Oberon V has a thin atmosphere of nitrogen and carbon dioxide, and has a mantle of mixed methane and water ice. Its surface is nearly white, and it starkly stands out…

Charon V

Planets

Charon V is a dwarf planet in the Charon system, United Empire of Earth (UEE). Numerous planetary surveys done since the system was discovered have confirmed that there are not enough precious mineral resources to justify the installation of permanent mining operations here.…

Idris V

Planets

Idris V is a protoplanet in the Idris system, United Empire of Earth (UEE). Once dense with valuable minerals, the UEE government and various companies systematically strip-mined Idris V throughout the 26th and 27th centuries. Its resources were significantly depleted. Pits and…

Centauri V

Planets

Centauri V is a red and yellow super-Jupiter in the Centauri system, United Empire of Earth (UEE). Enormous, violent storms that almost encircle the entire planet occasionally develop near the equator, while its north and south poles are encircled by systems of permanent…

Kiel V

Planets

Kiel V is a gas giant with prominent rings in the Kiel system, United Empire of Earth (UEE). Known for its beauty, its hydrogen and helium atmosphere is banded with shades of white, orange, yellow, reddish-brown, and pale green. Starting in the early 2920s, it became a trend for…

Oretani V

Planets

Oretani V is the fifth planet from the sun of the lost Oretani system. The largest planet in the system, it is also believed to be the oldest, and likely formed beyond the frost line over the course of three to four million years. Turiya Terraforming had outlined plans to build…

Gliese V

Planets

Gliese V is the fifth planet from the sun of the Gliese system, Banu Protectorate. Clouds of water vapor float in the upper reaches of its hydrogen-methane atmosphere, creating bands of white, light grey, and dark grey. Human-owned corporation Terragra uses Gliese V as the…

Kallis V

Planets

Kallis V is a terrestrial planet in the developing Kallis system. The fifth planet from its sun, it lacks geological activity and appears to have reached the final stages of its formation. It is surrounded by a wide disk of planetesimals and dust that are likely to be remains…

Kins V

Planets

Kins V is the fifth planet from the sun of the Kins system, Banu Protectorate. Pale yellow with some very light red and green banding, its color is due to the presence of ammonia crystals in its upper atmosphere. Although the planet is hundreds of times more massive than Earth…

Yulin V

Planets

Yulin V is the fifth planet from the sun of the Yulin system, Banu Protectorate. An ice giant, its hydrogen and helium atmosphere contains water, ammonia, and methane ice that combine to give the planet a uniform pale blue color. Its strong equatorial winds feed storm systems…
