Exothermal inversion

An exothermal inversion was a catastrophic cascading reaction in a planet's atmosphere.
When ionizing dust particles accumulated in the atmosphere of Penthara IV in 2368, correcting the problem risked triggering an exothermal inversion, which would have completely burned off the planet's atmosphere. This scenario did not come to pass, however. ()
