Planet: Bpfassh III
Table of Contents [hide]

Bpfassh III is a planet whose orbit matches up perfectly with the nearby planet of Bpfassh II. Because of this matchup, the radiation from the nearby sun is constantly blocked by Bpfassh II and gives Bpfassh III a very cold average temperature. Combined with the lack of atmosphere, conditions make the planet relatively unusable for most species. Despite the uninviting conditions, a few corporations are investigating mining potential for the abundance of rock that covers the planet.

Perhaps one of the most interesting phenomena of the galaxy is the volcanic ranges of Bpfassh III. Despite its immense size, the gravity of Bpfassh III is relatively weak when compared to other planets its size. While this low gravity may explain the lack of atmosphere, it is also responsible for spectacular displays every time a volcano erupts. Lava and other volcanic materials can fly several kilometers into the air before finally being pulled back down to the planet's surface. The first time this activity was seen from space, the pilots of a survey ship thought the planet was going to explode and nearly caused a system-wide panic.

The craters on the planet are actually a result of the volcanic explosions. After traveling so high from the planet's surface, much of the lava will cool significantly and form solid rock. Impacting upon the surface at extremely high speeds, the newly formed rock will often dig deeply into the planet's surface, resulting in the many craters seen from space. These craters are rich with minerals and easily accessible for mining equipment.
