Description (Planetology)
Santorini is a tide-locked world, habitable because its atmosphere is thick enough to allow the night face to be heated by circulation effects. Most of the planet’s day face is covered by ocean, although one small continent and a thick scattering of islands fall in a particularly pleasant climate zone that is densely populated.
