## Menotoid's information

This is a superterra that is located in the Milky Way galaxy and was discovered on November 20, 2002. The planet has only one observed moon around it, and that is a small asteroid, and the superearth has a very faint ring system, so faint that it took over 20 years of advancement in camera technology to detect the ring system. The planet has been observed to have multiple medium- to large-sized continents across its pacific blue oceans, with the fauna on the world being a general shade of dark green. The planet’s life seems to be on the same relative level as ours, with them also sending out radio signals. Multiple nations have been observed across the planet during the late 2020s, with 120K quality cameras being able to capture images on scales of 10 miles, enough to capture what seems to be concrete walls that separate the largest of nations. The inhabitants of this world seem to stick to the equator, with the majority of city lights being seen around the equator. They seem to use blue-purple city lights. Though they are as advanced as us, they are older than us, being around 2–3 million years older than us, implying a slower era of hunting and gathering and then farming.

The planet is larger than the Earth causing these life forms to be bulkier and short, with their buildings also being short so that the gravity does not topple them down. As for the actual planet itself, here is the physical information of this larger-sized superearth. The superearth is not a perfectly round world, with the equatorial diameter being 13138.83 miles large and the average diameter being 13081.66 miles in size. The polar diameter of the superearth is 12968.06 miles. The oblateness is small in this world, with it just being 0.012998. The planet is somewhat large, with its mass being 6 times that of the Earth, around 6.7226 M⨁, or 4.015\*10^25 kilograms, and its density being 8.2178 grams per cubic centimeter. The insolation of the superearth is 0.95668, close to being fully insulated. The average temperature on this lush world is 275.77 kelvin; that number might seem high, and since the world looks like Earth from the outside, you might be tempted to say that it has the average temperature of the Earth, but it does not; with the conversions of the average temperature being 36.716 degrees in fahrenheit and 2.62 degrees Celsius, it is a somewhat of a cold world, closer to that of middle Canada.

Thanks to how low the temperature is on this world, the superearth has an Earth similarity of 0.827, which is still high enough for human colonization, though the humans on this world have to get used to the gravity of a planet 6–7 times the mass of the Earth. The albedo of the superearth is 0.53889. The rotational period of this planet is only 10 hours, 1 minute, and 31.21 seconds, with the solar day being 10 hours, 2 minutes, and 21.63 seconds. The axial tilt of the orbit of the planet is 32\*48’42.88". The gravity on the equator of the planet is 23.673 meters per second, with the gravity on average being 24.15 meters per second, and on the poles the gravity is 24.575 meters per second. The circular velocity of the planet is 35743.57 miles per hour, with the escape velocity being 50549.04 miles per hour. The planet is very old, with its age being 11.544 billion years. It was created around the same time as when Disau was a cold oceanic world (*Not cannon, a note*). The atmosphere’s height is just as short as expected, at just 21.03 miles high. The tropopause height of the planet is 27512.79 feet, with the height of the homogeneous atmosphere is 11247.24 feet. The atmospheric pressure of the planet is 8.78 ATM, with the air density of the atmosphere being 10.844 kilograms per cubic meter. The air temperature is 275.77 kelvin, or around 2.62 degrees celsius.

The speed of sound on this planet is 739.97 miles per hour, with the exosphere temperature being 1403.7 kelvin, The greenhouse effect for this world is 49.187 kelvin, with the average molar mass being 28.416. The mass of the atmosphere is 9–10 times the mass of the earth’s atmosphere. For the atmospheric composition, with nitrogen being the first at 67.6%, oxygen coming out at second at 28.9%, and water vapor at 3.02%. Carbon dioxide is 0.41 percent. The ocean depth for the planet is 22543.90 feet, with the average molar mass being 18.015. The density of the ocean is 1 gram per cubic centimeter, with the average temperature in the ocean being 275.77 kelvin. The bottom pressure of the ocean is 1.65\*10^3 atm. The superearth has an orbital period of 299.522 days with an inclination of 0\*37’37.31". The Roche limit for satellites is 11126 miles, and the hill sphere for satellites is 1504262 miles.

Human colonization of the planet began in the early 2200s, with the main colonizer being the "Siberian Union". Due to civilization staying close to the equator of the planet, humanity colonized the polar regions, where they encountered large boreal forests similar to those of the Canadian Northwest and large tundra plains. Humanity picked the few fertile farmlands that were available, and due to gravity on the planet, humanity used the native crops that were available. Humanity, over time, adapted to the conditions of the planet and started moving further to the equator. By the 2500s, humans had fully colonized the planet, though they had moved away from the original H. sapiens species.
