Non-Canon

Rimkuku's atmosphere is highly charged by solar flare activity. While surface radiation levels remain tolerable, the increased heat and friction turn the world into a permanent lightning storm. Winds of up to hurricane intensity tear through the upper atmosphere, and are severe enough near the equator to prevent ship landings. Lightning arcs measuring up to 100 miles (160 km) in length have been recorded by orbiting satellites, and when discharges ignite airborne sulfur compounds it creates an incandescence that is visible to the 100 diameter line. The surface of the world is quite calm by comparison, but the local atmosphere remains unbreatheable without PLSS. The world contains many resources useful to industry, and the surface is dotted with domed communities that mine, process or utilize these resources for manufacturing or export. All of these communities are independent from each other, and wars have erupted in the past over resources and territory.
