(One of my favorite planets)
==History==
*~11.8 billion years ago. Surafira formed 11.878 million years ago. Most of its history, this planet has been lifeless
*~11.7 billion years ago. The planet cooled down and the first lakes appeared.
*~11.6 billion years ago - 760 million years ago. At this time, Surafira was a lifeless cool lacustrine terra. Probably, due to the low temperatures and remoteness from the star, life could not appear on it on its own.
*~760 million years ago. Terraforming this planet. The emergence of complex multicellular life.
*~760-753 million years ago. The existence of civilization. Numerous advanced cities, forests, seas. Very little is known about the civilization that existed on this planet.
*~753 million years ago. Extermination of civilization and the inhabitants of the planet. Hundreds of destroyed cities, billions of dead. Changing the planet's orbit and significant climate change. Surafira became a barren desert for some time.
*~753-740 million years ago. Adaptation of life to new conditions. At this time, all the modified by genetic engineering descendants of civilization are extinct.
*~753-650 million years ago. The beginning of an Ice Age, possibly caused by a nuclear winter.
*~650-450 million years ago. The epoch in the history of the planet when the biosphere began to recover after the catastrophe and the Ice Age. During this period, the climate is warming and more lakes are formed.
*~260 million years ago. Flora begins to cover more and more territories
*~200-140 million years ago. 25% of the surface is covered with green fertile colossal forests
*~140 million years ago. Supervolcano eruption, mass extinction. Almost all the forests died.
*~25 million years ago - today. Flora is starting to recover again and cover large areas. While the percentage of the surface covered by flora does not exceed 4-5%.
*Today - Surafira is covered by numerous lakes/sea and deserts. The lakes are mainly concentrated in the south and at the equator. Ice is in the north. Gravity is low. The atmosphere is not too dense and contains nitrogen and oxygen in large quantities. The climate is humid. The planet experiences periods of cold and, conversely, periods of heat. Forests are very rare. The surface is varied and mountains are common. The mountains do not reach a height of more than 19 kilometers. There are no active volcanoes on the planet. Overall, we can say that Surafira is a wonderful and beautiful semi-desert world.
==Biosphere==
The biosphere on the planet is incredibly diverse, even though the majority of the land is made up of deserts. Surprisingly, numerous species have managed to adapt and thrive in these harsh environments. From small lizards to gigantic creatures, life has found a way to exist and flourish. Flying animals are a common sight, often seen soaring through the skies in massive flocks. The flora, although scarce, is green and mainly exists in the form of bushes. Tall forests, on the other hand, are a rare sight but possess an enchanting beauty. Marine flora and fauna are VERY diverse and complex. The presence of stunning reefs, corals, plants, algae, and fish of various sizes and colors contribute to the breathtaking underwater world. Explorers who have delved into the depths of these waters have reported an abundance of species and unparalleled beauty. The Surafira's lakes, which are more accurately described as seas due to their size, are typically shallow. Through the crystal-clear, azure waters, one can catch glimpses of the mesmerizing underwater world that thrives. The diverse array of species and the sheer beauty of this hidden ecosystem leave observers in awe.
==Lost civilization==
The interstellar civilization on this planet thrived approximately 760 million years ago and likely possessed highly advanced technology. They undertook the remarkable feat of terraforming three planets within star system, with Surafira serving as the primary, most important and major world(In this star system). Life flourished on the planets Ezarvis, Alromia and Surafira. This planets boasted grand cities that showcased incredible engineering and architectural prowess. Numerous excavations were carried out on all three planets, which did not reveal military structures. Most likely, the species that lived in this system was peaceful.
===War===
Around 753 million years ago, this advanced civilization faced a devastating attack by unknown adversaries, resulting in the widespread destruction of their major cities and almost complete extermination. Amid the ruins of the capital city, a colossal, dark enigmatic tall structure was erected by these mysterious foes similar in design to the giant tall structure found on Overan.
===Extermination===
The inhabitants of the planet suffered greatly during this tumultuous time. Many were either killed outright or subjected to genetic modifications that caused their species to undergo a rapid and profound transformation, rendering them vastly different from their ancestral counterparts. These modifications led to their rapid degradation, causing a profound decline in their intelligence and cognitive abilities. Consequently, the once-intelligent species became unrecognizable, ultimately resulting in their extinction, leaving behind only the remnants of their once-great interstellar civilization, buried beneath layers of time, ashes and mystery.
==Unknown evil==
Scant information exists regarding the enigmatic civilization responsible for the annihilation of the inhabitants of Surafira and neighboring planets. What is clear, however, is that this civilization wielded formidable power and possessed technology far beyond the comprehension of the civilizations they encountered. It is highly probable that they utterly eradicated life on Ezarvis, leaving behind an empty, desolate world.
There are indications that these unknown adversaries may have sought to manipulate the relationships between celestial bodies within the star system. This is evident in the peculiar orbit of Surafira, which suggests intentional interference with its gravitational dynamics. Some researchers speculate that this may have been an attempt to orchestrate a collision between Surafira and Alromia, raising questions about their motives and whether they sought to completely destroy the habitable planets in this star system
The true motivation behind the complete devastation of this star system by the advanced civilization remains unknown. The absence of concrete information about their identity and intentions continues to deepen the enigma surrounding this ancient, terrible and cataclysmic event. But... Perhaps we have a clue to this event.
==Tracing the Shadows==
In a groundbreaking expedition that held the promise of solving the enigmatic downfall of the ancient civilization, researchers and astroarchaeologists unearthed a series of astonishingly well-preserved radar and radio-like devices, remarkably preserved for hundreds of millions of years within the ruins.
One enterprising scientist Arthur Logan, fueled by enthusiasm and the hope of unraveling the mysteries of this lost civilization, proposed a bold approach. He suggested constructing a computer simulation of the galaxy as it existed hundreds of millions of years ago to trace the direction in which these ancient radars were aimed. This ambitious undertaking demanded an immense computational effort, yet scientists persevered.
After extensive calculations and simulations, the researchers achieved a stunning breakthrough. They identified a hypothetical star system in the cosmos, a distant point in space to which these ancient radars had once been directed. This revelation opened up new avenues for investigation and brought fresh hope of shedding light on the forgotten history of the civilization that had harnessed such advanced technology in a bygone era. The discovery raised countless questions, igniting a fervor among scientists and historians to delve deeper into the past and uncover the secrets of the lost civilization. Finally, we have a clue to unravel why, how and by whom this peaceful civilization was destroyed.
