Kolim

Kolim with it's moon, Tose.

**Kolim** is a gaseous planet orbiting around Senerea, it's the largest planet to orbit the star. It has 62 moons and one submoon, 5 of these moons have acheived hydrostatic equilibrium or at least appear to from a quick glance.

## Physical Characteristics

### Atmosphere

Due to Kolim being too hot for ammonia clouds to form the clouds are instead made out of Water Vapor, making it a Class II Jovia. As if with any other gas giant, the atmosphere is mainly composed of diatomic Hydrogen and Helium. There are many storms on Kolim that dissappear as fast, as they begin.

## Rings

Kolim's rings were likely created during the migration of Kolim when orbit of a previous moon was destabilised and was sent into Kolim's Roche Limit. Distance between the start and the end of the rings is 75000 kilometers. Within the rings there is a moon, called Ir, it created a gap here titled "Ir Division".

## Orbit & Rotation

Kolim orbits it's star in 266.665 earth days, while having little eccentricity and inclination. It rotates in around 8 hours and 17 minutes giving the planet a flattened look. Kolim's axial tilt is 6 degrees.

## Moons

Kolim, as said above has 62 moons, 5 of which are considered to be "Major Moons".

### Inner Moons

#### Ir

Ir is a minor moon located in it's parent body's rings. It is cleaning material and even created a gap here. It's the closest moon to Kolim. It's radius is 3.9 km,

#### Tov

Tov is in a 1:2 mean reasonance with Ir, for every one orbit Tov completes, Ir completes two. It's radius is 6.775 km and it's density is 3.5551 g/cm3. Tov is outside of the rings.

### Major Moons

#### Cova

Cova is the 2nd most massive moon around Kolim. It's a rocky world with small bodies of liquid residing in craters. The liquid is a mix of water and a unknown sulfur-based acid.

### Tose

Tose is a thawed world, after Kolim's migration, Tose's ice melted forming oceans and vaporized to form mainly nitrogen atmospheres. It's seen in the picture in the infobox, below the rings.

#### Airai

Airai is in essence, bigger Tose. Interestingly, it has a big equatorial ridge below the ocean either suggesting a ancient submoon or a ring system.

#### Judea

Judea is a smaller version of Mars with atmosphere composed of CO2 and Small Amount of SO2.

### Captured Moons

#### Selik

Selik is most massive object aurond Kolim at whooping 1.27 Earth masses. The body contains an incredibly dense atmosphere composed of CO2, SO2 and H20. It has rings like Alrai may have used to, but it has what Airai doesn't - a Submoon.

Selik was formerly a planet but when Kolim migrated it was captured.

##### Lakka

Lakka is a small asteroid orbiting aurond Selik at in a retrograde orbit. It was once a Asteroid before it came in hands of Selik, it is the only moon of Selik to still orbit it's parent body.

#### Other Captured Moons

There are 56 captured asteroids orbiting around Kolim divided into 4 families, they have 8, 10, 13 and 25 members respectively, the innermost 8-member one is prograde while the rest are retrograde. Their orbits are closer than one would expect due to Hill's sphere of Kolim being smaller than a typical Gas Giant, this is due to Kolim orbiting it's star closer than most of Gas Giants.

## History

Kolim was the first planet to form around Simpo, being originally created beyond the frost line. Early in the planet's history Kolim came towards the Habitable zone, capturing Selik and stripping all of it's moons except Lakka. It's believed it's migration had something to do with Sermi also migrating, but into a much closer orbit than Kolim.
