Rotation period: none (tidal lock with primary). Axial inclination 2°49'20.2". Albedo, 0.26. Surface atmospheric pressure, 1.1 atm. Composition, oxygen-nitrogen mix with suflur and sulfur compounds taint; filter mask required to breathe atmosphere. Hydrographic percentage, 40%; composition, water and frozen water-ice. Mean surface temperature, dayside, 5°C; nightside, -124°C.

-'''Remarks''': '''Loren''' is a fascinating world, an example of a highly unusual ecology at work. Locked with one side constantly towards its star, the world is not the classic "twilight zone" planet, because even the dayside temperatures under the feeble light of Prometheus are barely over freezing. Twilight zone temperatures are far below the range for human comfort.
-Nonetheless, this singularly inhospitable world does support life. In the absence of an effective form of photosynthesis, the plant life of Loren relies on a chemosynthetic base; life flourishes even in some portions of the nightside, where volcanoes supply sufficient heat and a source for a variety of chemicals necessary for the world's life-processes. Higher forms of animal life also exist, in a complex food chain not entirely unlike our own, but with intriguing variations.
-The world has been colonized, albeit lightly by a nonhuman {{Imperial}} race originating in the [[Daibei Sector|Daibei]] sector, the [[Bruhre]].  Loren is not actually part of the Imperium, but an [[IISS]] base is present, and the Bruhre government of the world is answerable to their own homeworld. Imperial membership is likely to be granted within the next fifty years.
