Lacus Glacies Cutis

Lacus Glacies Cutis (colloquially known as LGC) is a glacial aquaria located in the RG 0-6-229426-2243 Sc spiral galaxy, approximately 2.05 Gly from Earth. It possesses a large central ocean, known as the Centralis Sea, from which is fed into by varyingly voluminous tributaries alongside several other isolated inland seas. What is of note however, is that these bodies of liquid are composed entirely of gasses in aqueous form, such as Nitrogen (N2), Methane (CH4), and Propane (C3H8) of which is highly flammable. 
=== History ===
LGC was formed around 5.5 billion years ago in the RS 0-6-229426-2243-1810-5-25990-192 System's Neonatalean Epoch (6.2-4.7 BYA) within its parent star's accretion disk. Approximately 750 million years after its initial formation, in what is now designated as the Rupuramian Interlude Collison event, LGC was struck by a 538 km planetoid which had a exertion pronounced enough to rupture LGC's orbit a further 4 AU's from its star which likely factored into its consistently frigid climate seen today. It was also in this impact that a sizeable accumulation of LGC's mass was exerted outward from which would eventually form its much larger moon, Syrnga Caela. This impact event would usher in LGC's Frigerationean Epoch (4.6-4.0 BYA) which saw a dramatic cooling in the planets surficial temperature and a stabilization of its orbit that became more centralized around Syrnga Caela than its parent star. Over the next 2 billion years as LGC had cooled, its gravitational compression condensed its gas rich atmosphere into liquid form, creating LGC's first oceans. Within this compression saw the beginning of LGC's longest geological era, the Vestibulian Epoch (3.9-1.8 BYA), whereby the planet was covered in global seas of liquid Nitrogen, Methane, and Propane. This continued until around 1.7 billion years ago when solar winds stripped LGC's atmosphere of its lighter gasses, evaporating much of the planets oceans whereby only a few inland accumulations of liquid Nitrogen remained. Thus entered in the Molarisian Epoch (1.7 BYA-740 MYA) which saw a considerable increase in volcanic upheavals from an influx of tectonic activity. It was from this increase that LGC would experience centuries of large scale earthquakes, ruptures, magma flows and new conspicuous geological features whose remnants can still be visibly observed today in the planets various mountain ranges and canyons. Most of these volcanic protuberances eventually became inactive from a subterranean clogging of magma and LGC would then experience its second and final cooling period. LGC then entered its current and arguably most secure stage, that being the Praesenian Epoch (739 MYA-Present) of which it has seen little change or deviation to any noticeable degree apart from a atmospheric agglomeration of Nitrogen gas.
=== Meteorology ===
LGC experiences little if any diversion in weather patterns given the environmental stability of its Praesenian Epoch. Despite this, LGC's equatorial region is prone to the formation of tempests of Ammonia (known as Ammonianic Cyclones) produced from its atmospheric Nitrogen by an assortment of Nitrogenases enzymes. These storms travel eastward along the planets equator until they come in contact with nitric acid vapors and solidify into microscopic aerosol particles and are precipitated in the form of dust rain to which are then absorbed into the planets soil or Nitrogenic liquid bodies. 
===Minerology===
Much of LGC's surficial area is covered in a 8 foot coting of solid Dinitrogen in the form of the crystalline structure designated by Scientists as ι-N2 along with an accumulation of aerosolic dust built up from repeated Ammonianic Cyclone precipitations. Beneath this initial coverage lies a wide mineral segmentation of Celestine crystals. Below this particular layer follows various igneous and crystalline rocks which in sequential order go: Dumortierite, Enstatite, Pegmatite, and finally Granite. Most of these minerals became present in LGC's crust during the Molarisian Epoch when volcanism was most frequent and as such, the dispensation of mineral rich materials across the planets surface from violent eruptions was at its zenith of occurrence.
