### Technical information

This world is a temperate marine superterra, it has an equatorial diameter of 10686.50 miles, with the average and polar diameters being the same size, and the oblateness of the planet being a perfect 0. The mass of the planet is 2.0032\*10^25 kilograms or 3.3541 M⨁, with the density of the planet being 7.521 grams per cubic meter, and the insolation is 0.46716. The effective temperature of the planet is 186.43 kelvin (-124 degrees Fahrenheit, -86.72 degrees Celsius), with the Earth similarity index being 0.849, and the albedo (bond) being 0.5671. The rotational period of the planet is 3.322 days, with the solar day being 3.341 days. The axial tilt of the planet to the orbit is 82\*15’16.65, and the gravity on the equator being 18.092 meters per second, with the gravity on average being 18.055 meters per second, with the gravity on the equator being the same amount. The circular velocity of the planet is 27873.11 miles per hour, with the escape velocity being 39418.53 miles per hour, with the age of the planet being similar to that of the Earth’s, 5.7 billion years old, in addition to that, the tidal heating is 7.0824\*10^11 watts. The height of the atmosphere here is 23.24 miles, with the tropopause height being 41,780.61 feet, and the homogeneous atmosphere is 14,678.35 feet. The air pressure here is 28.9 atm, high, with the air density being 36.264 kilograms per cubic meter, and the air temperature is 266.37 Kelvin ( -6.78 degrees Celsius, or 19.796 degrees Fahrenheit.).

The speed of sound on this planet is 734.13 miles per hour, with the exosphere temperature being 1301.9 kelvin, and the greenhouse effect here is 79.915 kelvin. The average molar mass in the atmosphere is 28.168, with the relative mass being 6.7925\*10^-6, and the objective mass of the atmosphere is 1.3607\*10^20 kilograms, or 28 Earth atmospheres. Nitrogen makes up 91.6% of the atmosphere, Oxygen makes up 7.56% of the atmosphere, Carbon dioxide makes 0.572% of the atmosphere, and Water Vapor makes up the rest at 0.257% of the atmosphere. The maximum depth of the oceans here on this planet is 7041.60 feet, with the bottom pressure of the oceans being 411 atm. The average molar mass here in the oceans is 18.017 , with the density of water here being 1 gram per cubic centimeter, typical, and the temperature in the oceans is 266.37 kelvin. The atmospheric pressure in the oceans in general is 28.9 atm, with the bottom composition being rock. Water makes up 100% of the oceans, with sulfur dioxide taking up the rest at 36.2 parts per million.

The orbit of the planet is elliptical, with the orbital period within the binary being 3.322 days, and the orbital period around the parent star being 1.615 days. The orbital data of the planet might be warped due to it being part of a binary system with its one and only major moon, so take this with a grain of salt. The semimajor axis of this world is 2926.8912 miles, with the pericenter and apocenter being 2920.1599 miles and 2933.6225 miles. The eccentricity of the planet is 0.002, with the inclination being 0\*43’22.65”, and the argument of pericenter is 61\*07’11.20”. The mean anomaly of the planet is 42\*41’07.26”, with the longitude of pericenter being 10\*19’35.23”, and the mean longitude is 53\*00’42.49”. The orbital velocity is 230.66 miles per hour, with the orbital resonances is 5:3 (4) and 5:2 (6), and the hill sphere / influence sphere radius is 1894254 miles and 1304526 miles, in addition to that the roche limit for satellites here is 8825 miles.

### Infolore

This planet is a temperate marine superterra, as previously stated. The biomes of this planet consist of Highland, Arid, Desert, Coniferous forest, Tropical Coastal Rainforest, and Dryland forest. The planet’s most well-known landmark, or more accurately described as a region, is the Gullahion-Partibet Highlands, where all of the highlands of this world are located in an area in the southern hemisphere, which is around the size of India or Australia. This region is similar to Tibet on Earth and is mostly uninhabited. The planet has two notable creatures that also happen to live in its highlands: the Moss-Covered Giants and the Gullahion Grand Valley goats. The Moss-Covered Giants, also known as the Gullahion Moss Giants, are a species of eight-legged, moss-covered terrestrial creatures that have adapted to living in these highlands by allowing extensive amounts of the native moss to grow on the creature. The other creature is a species that resembles our goat; however, it has stronger legs and hooves that allow it to grip any foothold it needs.

It is also more compact. Besides that, there is one more notable (though way less known) creature, the Gullahion Desertic Lizard. This creature is more accurately described as a hybrid of a lizard and a centipede. It exists in the only major desert here in the far northern regions. There are no demographics or relations here as the planet does not have a native civilization. There is one major ocean here, and in it, there are hundreds of small islands and islets. These independent ecosystems are diverse, but they have one common trait: island gigantism. We do not know why this is a thing here. On these islands and the majority of the mainland, the climate is sort of beachy, but at the same time, it is also arid. There are what could be considered palm trees, but they only become active and have green leaves after a significant hurricane or some other event that brings large amounts of water. In certain parts of the planet, more specifically, in the part of the world with all the islands and islets, some parts of the coasts have this dark green tropical rainforest that somewhat resembles a coniferous forest.

### Gullahoon information

(This also includes something on the asteroid moons.)

The planet only has one major moon, a cool lacustrine subterra. This moon has a mass of 0.11477 M⨁, with the diameter of that moon being 3952.33 miles. The major moon, though not large, is close enough to its parent planet that it has formed a small binary system with it, and has tidally locked the planet to it and vice versa. The moon has a bluish atmosphere, and is very windy. From space, there are hundreds of small clouds and cloudlets, below the vast skies of the moon is the land, and the moon is all terrestrial, there are no oceans, ponds, or seas here, and what would have been seas, ponds, and lakes are replaced by ice sheets and glaciers. Due to the moon’s proximity to the parent planet, it is stretched hard enough that a few volcanoes have been risen up to heights above that of Mount Everest, one of the highest of these mountains is Mt. Gullahion Minor, named after the moon before it got a new name, the height of this volcano is 11.50 miles at its peak. The moon’s water, wherever that might be, is made up of Sulfur dioxide, with the atmosphere of the moon being Nitrogen, Carbon dioxide, and Sulfur dioxide. Besides the major moon there is a cloud of smaller dwarf moons that surround the parent planet, these seem to be fragments from an ancient collision billions of years ago.

### Star System

The planet is located in a 9 planet star system that orbits a solitary yellow dwarf star. There are many neptunic planets in this system, and only 3 terrestrial worlds besides the life-bearing planet, and they are all barren and uninteresting, plus they do not have that many natural resources themselves besides iron, copper, and rocks.. The system overall is not that interesting, and the largest planet here is a cool ringed superneptune that has a mass 46 times that of the Earth. The third planet is a temperate minineptune that has a mass smaller than the Earth’s.
