Celestia Alpha

The moon Celestia Alpha is a serene oceanic terra orbiting a gas giant similar to Jupiter. It boasts an extraordinarily diverse biodiversity, with up to 20 million species of fauna inhabiting its surface. Positioned at an immense distance from Earth (3.70Gly), it features a gentle axial tilt of 13 degrees. The Moon exhibits a distinctive brown-yellowish vegetation. Fauna on Celestia Alpha range from colossal to minuscule, each uniquely adapted to its environment. Trees grow to staggering heights of up to 30 meters.
Jungle biomes (Tropical forests) dominate up to 50% of the moon's landmass, with the remainder comprised of forests, taigas, tundras, savannas, and other diverse ecosystems. The moon orbits around a K5.2V star, which will continue to radiate for another 38 billion years before its fuel is exhausted.

== History ==
· ~8.616 billion years ago. Celestia Alpha was formed around the star RS 0-5-21632-1227-1375-7-1546818-461 A (Orange Dwarf)
· ~8.02-7.88 billion years ago. The planet cooled down and the first oceans appeared.
· ~6.9 billion years ago, an asteroid brought single-celled life to the surface of the moon.
· ~3.82 billion years ago. The emergence of multicellular life in the oceans
· ~3.2-2.9 billion years ago, intense volcanic activity on the moon Celestia Alpha destroyed 60% of all life. During this period, a smaller asteroid also impacted the moon.
· ~2.7 billion years ago, the atmosphere on the moon Celestia Alpha changed from yellow to cyan, but the reason for this change remains unknown.
· ~2.2 billion years ago. The first organisms come to land.
· ~2.1 billion-580 million years ago, the moon Celestia Alpha was covered up to 90% by rainforests. During this period, up to 30 million animal species could have lived on the moon. The temperature ranged from 15°C to 33°C. These rainforests were home to biomes teeming with diverse life forms, including luminescent plants and giant, winged creatures that soared through the dense canopy.
· ~579 million years ago, a catastrophic volcanic eruption on the moon Celestia Alpha released massive amounts of ash into the atmosphere, cooling the temperature from 34°C to -10°C.
· ~579-180 million years ago, there were hardly any tropical rainforests on the moon Celestia Alpha. The entire continental area was predominantly covered with tundras and taigas, with forests and steppes being rare. The average temperature was -11°C, and animals had small sizes due to a low oxygen concentration. Scientists speculate that a primitive civilization might have existed on the moon during this time, but this remains uncertain.
· ~120 million years ago, the moon Celestia Alpha warmed up from -11°C to 8°C. Scientists speculate this warming was due to changes in its orbit, resulting in increased exposure to solar radiation and possibly changes in atmospheric composition.
· ~4.2-1.2 million years ago, the last extreme ice age on Celestia Alpha caused temperatures to plummet from 8°C to -1°C. During this period, many species adapted to the harsh conditions, developing unique survival mechanisms. The icy landscape transformed large portions of the moon, giving rise to spectacular glacial formations. As the ice receded, it left behind rich mineral deposits that now support diverse ecosystems
· Today, the moon Celestia Alpha is a tropical paradise, predominantly covered in lush rainforests, with forests, tundras, taigas, and occasional deserts. The moon features up to 100 active volcanoes, creating a diverse landscape and enriching the soil. Tiny islands dot the moon, home to breathtakingly beautiful creatures of astonishing heights. No mountain on Celestia Alpha exceeds 10 kilometers, but they feature intricate cave systems and vibrant ecosystems. Mist-shrouded peaks and tranquil lakes, formed in ancient volcanic craters, host rare glowing aquatic life, making Celestia Alpha a captivating destination for explorers and scientists.
· In the future, the moon Celestia Alpha will remain habitable for up to 7.5 billion years, with its stable climate and diverse ecosystems thriving. Scientific advancements will likely reveal even more unique flora and fauna. Its natural beauty and complexity will continue to inspire awe and wonder.

== Biosphere ==
The biosphere of Celestia Alpha is incredibly diverse and rich. The vegetation on the moon is predominantly brown and yellow, with tall trees in the tropical rainforests that house up to one-third of all known animal species. Celestia Alpha hosts up to 20 million species, including approximately 5% plants and fungi. Birds account for 15% of the animal species, insects 60%, marine life 4%, and the rest, around 21%, are terrestrial animals. The fauna typically have 2-4 legs and can grow up to 25 meters in height. Volcanic regions enrich the soil and create stunning landscapes, while scattered islands are home to bioluminescent creatures. The moon’s tundras and taigas support resilient species, and its freshwater lakes teem with unique aquatic life, offering endless opportunities for scientific exploration.
