Astrography & Planetology[edit]
It is located within the Dodds Cluster.
Most of Thornnastor’s water forms a thin surface layer, which turns much of the planet into a steamy swamp. The water in these swamps has a low salt content and supports plant life, which in turn allows for a diverse biosphere.
