A Garden World is hospitable to most sophonts, with a size, atmosphere, and hydrographic rating that make it extremely attractive world. A Garden World has a safe environment, which does not require protective equipment for humans and other sophonts which share the planetary environment.
- They are also known as a Gaia Worlds or Terra-prime worlds, veritable paradises.
- It is a Main World or non-MW trade code. Almost always MW.
- It is a planet or world type.
Description (Specifications)[edit]
A Garden World is a planetological term for a lush ultra-hospitable world, almost ideally suited to conventional life of the type common to worlds like Terra.
Planetary Characteristics[edit]
A Terra-prime world is also known as a garden world, and is considered a paradise are highly desirable environment for most sophont species.
