Kiur (Li 0125) has an oceanic geography consisting of heavily contaminated water or a substance such as ammonia, methane, hydrocarbons, or other exotic liquid.

Description (Astrography & Planetology)

Kiur (Lishun 0125) is a large, very dense world, rich in heavy metals with a dense hydrocarbon atmosphere, making Kiur almost a sub-gas-giant in a system entirely composed of gas giants.

  • Its 71 million inhabitants live in orbit to escape the atmosphere of methane and ammonia.
  • The atmosphere can be easily skimmed and purified for fusion fuel, but what really sweetens the dismal aspect of this world is the ocean of pure hydrocarbons.
  • These are scooped and sold to lower tech planets that still burn them for fuel.
  • A good example is Surli (Lishun 0529), 5 parsecs away.
