Londa

Londa is the second and second smallest planet of the Ovumus System. It possesses two major moons and a thin atmosphere. 
== Physical Characteristics ==
Londa is a small yellow-ish desert world with a thin atmosphere and a high temperature thanks to Ovumus's brightness. It is not particularly interesting, but it is useful as a mining world due to its large amount of volatiles and other strategic materials.
== Atmosphere ==
The atmosphere of Londa mostly consists of sulfur and sulfur dioxide with some other trace gases, such as carbon dioxide and nitrogen. The atmosphere while thin, is still thick enough for incoming spacecrafts to aerobrake.
==Orbital Properties==
Londa orbits Ovumus about every 3.5 years. Its has an eccentricity value of 0,005, making it even lower than Kvul, the closest planet to Ovumus. Its average distace from Ovumus is 4.09 AU, and this varies very little due to the low eccentricity. 
== History ==
Londa was discovered around the year 428 BC as a dip in its parent star's brightness. After mutiple years of observation, it was confirmed to be a planet. After the Ovumus Flyby Probe arrived in the Ovumus System from Varbudos, it extensively surveyed the planet and discovered its two major moons. 
== Moons ==
Londa has 2 moons, Aelialia and Nuan. 
===Aelialia===
Aelialia is the first and smallest moon of Londa. It is the most populated due to the large amount of useful materials to mine there. 
===Nuan===
Nuan is the second and largest moon of Londa. Unlike Aelialia it has relatively small amounts of strategic materials and was mostly ignored until the modern day. Today it is being mined for huge quantities of basic resources to build the Ovumus Dyson Swarm. 
== Colonization and Terraforming ==
=== Colonization ===
Londa lacks any major population centers. Instead, the Varbudian colonists set up small remotely operated mining installations in an effort to extract the strategic materials hidden deep underground. 
=== Terraforming ===
There are plans to terraform Londa, but as of the modern day it would require too much effort to do so with existing technology. Such a project would also divert funds from the critically important Ovumus Dyson Swarm, necessary to starlift it and retain Nel's habitability.
