- The purging of Van: The Monlock Monarchy and the nightmare worlds
The system of Van in the Anama constellation of Aridia was known throughout Empire space for its concentration of lush, habitable worlds, full of forests and nutrient rich soils. It is rare in Eve to find a system with five verdant temperate planets in stable orbits. They were dubbed the garden worlds of Van and attracted tourists from all factions across the Empire. Though nominally under Amarr control, the real dominance rested with an inbred, powerful, and thoroughly corrupt monarchy known as the Monlocks whose centre of power resided on Van I, the most beautiful of the garden worlds. They had held sway for nine generations, by deceit, intrigue, assassination, and skirmish. The local hegemony was not total, however; and an Amarr administrative outpost located in orbit of Van III Moon I strived to keep the excesses and independence of the Monlocks in check as much as they were able. There was little to be done though beyond bureaucratic rebukes and official audits. The Van system is remote, heavily populated at the time, and in the unlikely event an Amarr fleet could be spared, what would it do? Any military action or deposing of the monarchy would simply plunge a fragile yet acceptably stable system into anarchy and strife. Better to tread lightly and tolerate the eccentricities of the Monlocks in return for token obedience was the Amarr doctrine at the time. It was 67 years after the Yoiul Conference that the first tourists began to vanish. The Monlock forces did scant little except proffer excuses, conspiracy theories, and reluctance to investigate, and even in Amarr offices it was assumed merely to be an uptick in local crime. The disappearances continued and it was only when a famous singer called Pilly G, known throughout Aridia vanished, that the uproar forced Amarr command to dispatch an Imperial Legate to investigate. Imperial Legate Vostus Kodrore the Third arrived in system onboard an Abaddon class battleship called Mors Rebellibus , supported by six Omen class cruisers, each with a unit of Imperial arbitrators for anticipated combat and execution duties. An Imperial Legate possesses the authority to override any in-system court and decide themselves, without trial, any and all forms of punishment. It was assumed at the point of dispatch that the likely cause was the criminal gangs of one of the Van worlds, and violent hab block to hab block fighting was expected. No such combat came to pass. Upon investigation it was discovered that disappearances among residents had been occurring for over a decade, and the true extent of the problem was only fully revealed when the tourists began vanishing. Criminal connections proved unlikely at such scale, and the sinister and surprising conclusion was that mutated ‘biota’ was the culprit. Deformed plants and trees possessing mouths and teeth were discovered in the forests, rats with poisonous tentacles and abominations dubbed Tiger rabbits killed many of the investigating imperial arbitrators, swarming them en masse, deploying intelligent ambush techniques. Suspicion fell upon the Monlock Monarchy, mostly caused by their evading and squirming answers. Detailed and persuasive Amarr interrogation techniques revealed that the Monlocks were employing a rogue team of geneticists from the Society of Conscious Thought to enhance the beauty of the flora and fauna, constantly trying to make ever rarer and more exotic looking specimens to attract and sustain the hugely profitable tourist trade. At some point the planned mutations had gained independent freedom, or been stolen, and vanished into the vast wilderness expanses, free to mutate unhindered. A swift mission saw the genetics team summarily executed after handing over all their data, although an Apotheosis shuttle did escape the cordon. An assessment was conducted on the civil strife and rioting likely if the monarchy were arrested and removed for trial on the Amarr homeworld, and it was deemed the Amarr forces were not plentiful enough to counter this. As such Van I was annihilated entirely from orbit by Reaper bombs. A sterile monument, warning other rulers of the consequences of unauthorised genetic meddling. No warning was given to the residents. Van I, former capital world of the Monlock Monarchy For the other Van worlds the populations were spared, although vast quantities of a chemical termed Brown Gomba was dropped across all wilderness areas. It was designed to counter the genetic mutations and was based on the data recovered from the executed team. Van III, after the Brown Gomba bombing It did not have the desired effect, and Brown Gomba combined unfortunately with the mutated life forms causing acceleration and further mutations, this is the cause of the notable browning seen from orbit. All local populations were hunted to near destruction by the mutant forms, a thousand million nightmares taken solid and biting form. The planets were deemed too valuable to entirely destroy; possessing lumber, minerals, metals, gases, and chemicals useful throughout Aridia and beyond. The Nightmare worlds were left as they were; the populations abandoned to their grim fates and warning beacons positioned in orbit around each planet. Industrial extraction is now generally achieved via robotics with the occasional heavily armed drop team to set up a new extraction system. These activities are routed through Van III Moon I Amarr Standard Station Constructions Warehouse. Despite this history, private individuals on skiffs and pleasure yachts have occasionally entered the atmosphere and landed. Teenagers showing off on brave adventures, and secret lovers trying to find a beautiful and remote beach for liaisons. The logs for many such travellers have been found on board their abandoned vessels, the endings invariably the tales of living nightmares. On several occasions some of the crew returned to their vessels with infected hosts attached. All have been located and purged. Be warned, gentle citizens.

- J004150 C4 wormhole in region D-R00016, constellation D-C00328
Log entry (III)YC126.03.11/09.36 Beauty. Oh thou stunning void. Vast enough to hide even my flaws. Beware, Sleepers live here, security rating -0.99. The local star is a A0IV (Turbulent Blue Subgiant), and there is also a Wolf-Rayet anomaly. It is a shattered system, with no moons, and all 9 of the planets are molten, lifeless, hateful things. Or maybe it is only my mood that is sour and hateful this day, the planets just planets, embittered only by my mind. So much is simply mind. I found myself weary of the Metropolis survey, so ordered, so neat. I decided upon a whim to take the nearest wormhole and ended up here. No stations here, no uncloaked ships, no activity, only deadly Sleepers hiding in the dark. The planets are all in the process of differentiating, with heavy molten material sinking towards the cores and the lighter silicates fractionating to the surface. Details of the planets appended below as always. Must be diligent. Molten Magma There is nothing after no more And no more after nothing When a rock get crushed When a mountain turns powder When a bone is broken When the baoba is fell When monument burn to ashes When the land rupture Giving way to fiery fury And chaotic chasm, Then there is nothing after no more, And no more after nothing When the beginning takes off from the end And the end from the beginning And a poor soul at the receiving end of their tyranny, Then there is nothing after no more, And no more after nothing When a poor soul had been poured like a drink offering, He becomes the cup and the drink, He is a product of time immemorial and disruptive transformation, He becomes the fire and the ice, The wind and the whirlwind, He becomes the roaring thunder And the thunder roaring Argh, he becomes the molten magma, Threatening the foundation of the cosmos Said Adeoye Favour Large asteroid sized debris fields of semi melted silicates sometimes orbit the planets, such as IX below and I, II, III, IV above. And on scanning the system, beautiful shattered ice fields can be found, temporary and drifting. It feels a vast and melancholic universe at times. Thus concludes the record for the wormhole system J004150.

- Arlek, Meinigefur constellation of Metropolis
Log entry (II)YC126.19.10/10.16 Yes, the numbering of these planets seems rather drunken, but I have verified the data, illogical but accurate. Arlek in the Meinigefur constellation, Metropolis, Minmatar Republic. Easy I thought. High security 1.0 space I thought. Only one station near moon V. Warning to all, there are some Mordu’s Legion Barghest craft floating around on arrival, despite Angel cartel being the normal trouble makers in this system. I had a very, very close encounter with a barghest near the only station, a Core Complexion Inc. factory. Repair and refinery is also possible here. Food is terrible and expensive, the water rather stale, and the crew best avoided. Drunken hammering at my door during the night and next time I’ll stay on my ship. 7 planets, 52 moons (oh that is going to take a long time!) with 8 asteroid/ice belts mostly of scordite and veldspar according to mining output reports. I do not have time to survey the asteroid belts during The Great Survey – the moons are enough of a task! Leave it to those that follow. The sun is an M4 V class star (main sequence dwarf), however, the Archive Primarium states a temperature of 2733.00 K when an M4 should have a temperature ~3400 K. 2700 K would be an M7-8. Further, the Archive Primarium states a luminosity 0.01218 when 0.038 would be expected. The spectral energy distribution (SED) peaks in the near infrared, with very weak hydrogen lines. Please treat the Archive Primarium with sceptical caution. Before beginning the system survey proper, I poked my nose into the Tetrimon base, there is a transponder pinging away for it in system. Thus I did find a large structure with multiple acceleration gates nearby and lots of aggressive ships flying about. I left, I am not a fighter. I suggest simply avoiding this site entirely in your travels. Stay safe, fly peaceful. Arlek I A gas planet of significant size (ignore the Eve data sheet, it is not small and without atmospheric pressure, that would be silly for a gas planet). It has a dense and occluded atmosphere, very acidic and destructive on the probes I sent in, the electronics barely survived a few seconds. Now, the reactive gas component turned out to be tiny when analysed, but fizzlingly potent. The rest was an ionic and aqueous soup with moderate levels of noble gases and base metals at lower depths and where the banding becomes darker, mostly species of copper, lead, nickel and zinc. Windspeeds were gentle, ~3.4–5.4 m/s, just enough to create the concentric banding patterns. The poles were choked in sulphur, mostly carbonyl sulfide (OCS) and sulfur dioxide (SO2). No life was detectable. Freezing upper atmosphere temperatures rose with depth until the equipment failed, though with high error bars throughout. Not a place for a holiday. I may need to return to Thera soon for more probes! The moons were…. Drumroll…. Mostly basalt, with some diorite and andesite in the uplands of moon I, VI, and V and these were the only moons with distinct highlands and lowlands indicative of core differentiation during its early eras. Moon I does not have biota in the lowlands, the green hue is exposed gabbro and peridotite, only slightly serpentinized in the nearly anhydrous environment, sample below. Moons VI and VI had higher Fe content than the others, explaining the red hues. Although there was cratering it was never excessive, testament to the absorbing power of the planet and the protective shielding of the outer planets. None of the moons have either atmospheres, past or present volcanics, or signs of life. Scanning electron microscope analysis for hematite for rock sample P37d on moon VI. Arlek II The famous ‘fireworld of Arlek’. A surprisingly busy place with regular tourist shuttles on fixed schedules, landing on a floating gantry to observe the sea of fire (observable in the Southern hemisphere in the picture above). A game for the rich, indeed tickets are normally so expensive visiting is often done as a mark of wealth and status rather than any interest in the geology. But still, I must not place scorn on us humans for this kind of pettiness, it is harmless enough. Let them hide behind their cooling shields and pay small fortunes for vapour sprays. So, what to say of this magnificent planet? Molten, silicic pools, a very thin film of sort of basalt but often exotic clumps of many varieties can be found, tiny pools of rare metals of osmium, iridium, palladium, ruthenium, rhodium, tellurium and rhenium and a host of base metals. The scan is indeed correct that felsic mineralogy is scant, it has not had the planetary differentiation yet to produce surface felsic components such as alkali and plagioclase feldspars, quartz, feldspathoids etc. Mostly though it is mafic (light microscope rock sample of mafic mineralogy below with cross polarised lense in A, the dark black are air vesicles). The surface ranges from 700 to 1,200 °C, and although the hot winds can feel fierce, they are gentle in real terms and there is little in weather patterns on Arlek II. It has no life. There is one ‘moon’ if it can be called that, consisting of five large basaltic asteroid fragments held together by what can only be termed ‘space gunk’. The gunk is a mixture of crushed rock, ice (water and CO2) and mud. No life or atmosphere. Arlek III This gas giant is a pearl, full of swirling storms and poetry, crackled lightening and whispered rapid winds. Ionic and aqueous liquid mostly in vapour form, though only the upper atmosphere can be surveyed. The probes die at depth, crushed by atmosphere and communication interference. There could be oceans down there or concrete, that is for later investigations. No bio signs, but base metals in the lower depths and noble and reactive gases higher up. Strong winds, storms, some that move, others apparently static… perhaps indicating topological features at depth. The colour banding is chemical with reds near the poles and jade greens with turquoise blues near the equator. The poles were high in ammonium dichromate, lead(II) iodide, and iron(III) chloride hexahydrate, whereas the equatorial regions were dominated by copper(II) sulphate pentahydrate, copper(II) chloride dihydrate, cobalt(II) chloride, and nickel(II) chloride hexahydrate. A tasty salty soup! The planet has four moons, III and IV being the larger. III is the only non-mafic, and it has high felsic contents. I suspect it did not form concurrent with the others and may have swept into the system and got captured by the gas giant gravity well. That might explain the huge impact crater it displays (although IV has a subtler but considerably larger one replete with a central uplift. III also has minor ice and carbonates, although not organic. I and II do have life on them, which fits the narrative that they are less scarred by major impacts and outer solar system journeys. Single celled and seems to use CO2 and sulphur compounds, although I cannot talk on biota with any authority - it simply isn't my wheelhouse. Safe to say they won't be invading anyone any time soon. Arlek IV Home of the Arltoi tribes. You will see no electric lights of cities from space here. These are wild lands of a protected people. They ride animals called stirons, 8 limbed muscled beasts with a mixture of very thick fibrous hair and light chitin carapace. The tribes are savage, to each other and certainly to an outsider. Besides, it is illegal to land, banned by CONCORD at the request of tribal elders and for the safety of capsuleers. Sadly, people do break this ban, and off-world narcotics are creeping into tribal culture, and Arltoi people vanish now and then, sometimes whole villages. Still, it is beautiful. Varied weather, little by way of vegetation on the planet but immense shrublands of a dry hardy variety that come about knee high. There is life in the oceans but it has not been seriously studied beyond sightings of ‘evil leviathans and watery daemon people’. It is a world of myths, impossible to explore. Oxygen and nitrogen rich atmosphere. There appears to be many small continental plates, although most (not all) volcanism is subsurface subduction zone activity. No serious geological mapping has been done or is possible. Basalts on the ocean floor, presumably underlain by gabbro and peridotite though no drilling has ever been done and no ophiolites are evident. The land masses are generally felsic, though with exceptions. No major mountain ranges but many smaller ridges and jagged wastelands. Diorite and feldspar seems to dominant above the water, with some very thick slices of carbonate, possibly ophiolitic in origin. A most unusual structure can be seen as circular dark spots top right of ship in the image below, possibly old volcanics or impacts? Odd shapes. I'm sure in 100 years it'll all be made into a hive world. The three moons are rather different, though all small. Moon I is heavily cratered mafic basalt and gabbro. Moon II is felsic, unimpacted, and possibly extrasolar in common with other moons in this system. Moon II is andesitic and would be unremarkable but for an enormous extinct volcano on its Northern pole, absolutely immense, albeit the gradient is slight. No life or atmospheres. Arlek V As if the Sky should part And show a further Sky— And that—a further—and the Three But a presumption be— Of Periods of Skies— Unvisited of Skies— Themselves the Verge of Skies to be— A mostly unreactive gas giant, base metals at depth, noble gases at altitude, aqueous and ionic clouds, mostly of dichromate and cobalt(III) amine (reddish bands), with manganates and copper complexes creating the greens. No life observed and probes die at depth. High winds in the upper atmosphere and only ‘minor’ weather disturbances (only thousands of km each!) This would be an excellent planet to extract metals from. There are subtle rings around the planet, mostly dust and small rocks of sand and pebble size of plagioclase feldspar composition. Moons I, II, IV, XI are andesitic with some felsic regions, and as with so many other moons in this system might be extrasolar. All others are basaltic. Carbonate outcrops on Moon VI, not caused by ice melt so perhaps some subsurface aquifer or ice volume? Possible biotic origin? Certainly, there are tough algal colonies on I, II, and III, surviving in a terrible thin partial atmosphere. I did not land, but I suspect, upon looking at magnified images, that the cells are not truly on the surface, despite the colouration. They appear to form a clear Si layer between them and the surface and propagate in this subsurface environment. Incredible extremophiles. Not my area of expertise. A huge impact crater on X. The red regions on IV is of an Fe oxide, probably degraded hematite, though the water source would be interesting to identify. Ah, so many endless things to study. I need a thousand thousand lifetimes. I do not miss my arms… perhaps I should become entirely robotic and explore the star’s mysteries in perpetuity? Apologies, I digress. Arlek VI The sum of the mole fractions of all the components present must equal 1. Possessing a radius of 31,140 km Arlek VI falls just short of the 38,226 km required to be a gas giant. Hydrogen, with helium in the depths, the black near the equator contains Iron(III) chloride anhydrate, whereas the dark green of the poles is manganate(VI), chromium(III), chromium (III) sulphate, and copper(II) chloride dihydrate. Some of the reddish hues are ammonium dichromate. No life is detectable. High winds but no storms, the few disturbances in concentric linearity are possibly due to unseen topology. The many moons of Arlek VI, 25 in all. Surveying is an act of patience and love, and needs to be when presented with such numbers. Far and away the best prize that life has to offer is the chance to work hard at work worth doing. The most evident thing is all moons possess variable topology with highland and lowland differentiation, implying at the very least some degree of melt fractionation and reforming of the crust, possibly with sustained lava oceans early in their formation. This fits with some of the very large impact sites visible (see moons VII, VIII, XX, XXIV, XXV for clear examples). Most are basalt though some border on andesitic surface mineralogy, XXII, and XXIII are the only felsic/diorite moons and may have come into orbit from a later date or else be the Si rich fractionated part of a greater whole that became shattered. XXI and XII are notably Fe rich, with oxidated iron giving their surface hue. XIII and XXII are the only two moons with biosignatures, both varieties of extremophile single celled organisms of an algal type living beneath a thing SiO coating to protect from the harsh environment. Full data appended below. Arlek VII A beautiful jewel of an ice world, teeming with plankton and microorganisms. The surface is frozen, although briefly cracking can occur and very temporary surface water appears. The cracking is perhaps due to subsurface convection or movements in a deeper core or lithosphere. The reddish hue on the surface seen from orbit is the plankton, an order of malacostracan crustaceans with a curved exoskeleton and two long and two short antennae. A macro plankton varying between 2 to 3 cm in length. The microorganisms are various types of archaea and protozoa. Both moons possess highland and lowlands, indicating fractional crystallization due to melting at some point in their pasts. The highlands being more andesitic and the lowlands basalt with some gabbro outcrops. This fits with the large impact sites visible. Thus concludes the record for Arlek.

- Ryddinjorn, Meinigefur constellation of Metropolis
Log entry YC126.10.10/10.37 Mixed feelings leaving Thera. It’s been a cozy wormhole to nest in, but I feel at a bit of a dead end and need a long journey to explore. Explore both the universe and myself. I was initially going to begin this mammoth venture in my home system of Shousran III in Tash-Murkon, and I set course for there. But old memories and emotions of home, parents, Lenoir and Emile came tumbling in and I decided to wait a while before tackling that. So, I start this survey/personal-pilgrimage to everywhere here in Ryddinjorn, part of the Meinigefur constellation in Metropolis. It’s weird being in high security space again. Not everything is immediately trying to kill me, it feels wrong in a messed up sort of way. The Ryddinjorn system is part of the Meinigefur constellation of Metropolis, centered around a K3 small yellow sun, has 10 asteroid/ice belts, 7 planets and 47 moons. Only three of the asteroid belts appear on the system probe scan. The asteroids are mostly scordite and veldspar according to mining output, but there has been no true geological investigations, nor will there be on my visit here. A job for another geologist! I had quite a shock when I went to survey the star, an enormous debris field of destroyed AIR structures and smashed ORE bowhead vessels are in orbit. I am unsure how recent this is, and I expect their orbit to rapidly decay into the star. There was a lot of very living pilots flying around, although no active fighting. Foul play and plots I suspect! Three star gates exist in the system, all under Minmatar Republic banner, leading to either Arlek (Minmatar Metropolis), Leurtman (Minmatar Metropolis), or Meirakulf (Minmatar Heimatar). There are two main stations, the AIR laboratories and the Pator Tech School. If there is room and you have the wallet to do so, then AIR is by far the nicer and more comfortable option, although lacking in any facilities. The tech school, well, think poor students, school budgets and crumbling infrastructure… the food was some of the worst I’ve eaten in years. The tech school does have refinery (50%), cloning, repair, and factory capabilities that AIR does not. Both are near planet VI. There are other population centres scattered on ships and dark stations, although none of these are accessible, most are not legal or declared. There are also towns such as Hrangsdor. The system has become home to a large amount of Thukker recently moved in YC126.09, they seem to be everywhere, especially the bars, and much tension is palpable between Thukker and Brutor tribes. Apparently nearly half of the Fuldis caravan opted to attempt to settle here, although many individuals of Brutor persuasion believe this to be nothing more than a Thukker recruitment ruse. The Angel cartel is taking advantage of these displaced populations and kidnappings, ransoms, and human trafficking are up significantly. It used to be a near ideal system. It does however, retain it’s 1.0 high security status… for now. There is also a customs office adjacent to every planet, for those unfamiliar. When moons are being used, commercially or otherwise, they use they customs office of the nearby planet, although this is not relevant to the Ryddinjorn system. Failure to comply with customs carries severe penalties including fines, prison, loss of permits and licenses, criminal records and seizure of assets by force. They distinctly lack any sense of humour in such places in my experience. Universally customs offices are of the same robust design. Ryddinjorn I and II Not the most exciting worlds to begin with compared to the wonderous beauty of Ryddinjorn IV. Both of these worlds are officially designated as barren planets, although, both contain significant amounts of micro-organisms living in subsurface liquid aquifers. Surface atmosphere is negligible and mostly CO2. Basalt regolith with minor carbonates and base metals, mostly as dust. These create dust storms of a planetary scale despite relatively low wind speeds. The other planets and moons in the system absorb most of the modern impacts, so craters tend to be old, eroded, and dust filled with minor melt water features. Ryddinjorn III I had heard about the vast Falls of Ryddinjorn since I was a child. Tales of Milkinier and the watery crater trolls. So, it was the first and most interesting planet I visited was Ryddinjorn III, asteroid and meteor pummelled ocean world. I went in cloaked out of habit but couldn’t resist decloaking for the selfie drone. Some of the craters visible have eroded in a nonlinear way, others have been subjected to planetary tectonics, weather and tides to produce an offset to the crater. The result is magnificent waterfalls, some of tremendous height. Often the waterfall volume is tidally variable. It’s really a spectacular place to visit. I could spend years here I think. I landed in a few places where the rocks allowed, but never felt comfortable straying more than a click or so from the ship before hurrying back. The rock showed granite, conglomorates, mudstones, limestone, and of course, basalt. A truly active planet in its past. You’ll notice a distinct lack of cloud and weather formations from space. This is predominantly due to the lack of topography on the world, combined with its rather moderate and uniform temperatures, with few gradients of note forming. Though winds and coriolis do exist of course and should still be plotted and accounted for if anyone plans to visit. It is a beautiful world, full of myth and monsters, thankfully literary more than literal. The 90m knife sharks are quite a sight though, amazing how much plankton they must consume. Never did see Milkinier, nor any crater trolls! A planetary survey scan will support what is obviously seen, with few complex organisms, lots and lots of micro-organisms and plankton, and plenty of water and carbon compounds. A stunning world that is never going to become a hive world for humans. The moon of Ryddinjorn III may not look much, a basalt base with a deeper than usual regolith of dust and brecciated rock. However, the rather mysterious carbonate pinnacles shown in white are an utter perplexion and entire thesis could be spent on why on Thera they are there. Possible remnant organics? Past water outlets serpentinizing the basalt? Who knows. Tricky fieldwork in all that dust. No appreciable atmosphere. I did manage to extract a single sample of the carbonates and put them through transmission electron microscopy, fantastic features! Iron rich carbonate structures, like flowers, within cracked olivine crystals, obviously serpentinised by some mechanism. Note this only occurs in the olivine, not the adjacent pyroxenes. The Fe rich cores and rims to the flowers are most perplexing. Ryddinjorn IV The gas planet of Ryddinjorn IV is most notable for the colour differentiation of its atmosphere, with high albedo bright whites above ~30°N, a myriad of blue green shades in the equatorial regions, and rust reds in the Southern reaches below ~30°S (although a white region buffers the boundary between southern greens and reds. High winds in the upper atmosphere combined with a fast planetary spin produces these neat concentric colour bands. Interrupted here and there by storm swirls and eddies where one band has spilled into another. Electrical discharge can be seen sporadically over a period of hours. No survey has ever survived landing, however, what data is extant describes a planet of thick atmospheric base metals in the lower depths, grading into lighter noble gases in the upper atmosphere. The lower atmosphere becomes so dense it blurs the boundary between liquid and gas and posseses a soup of ionic aqueous liquids. Few reactions occur though, thus has Ryddinjorn IV remained relatively consistent over geological time. A beautiful work of art. The planet possesses 14 moons, most of which are rather unremarkable. Moons II, III, V, IX, XII, and XIV possess significant topological relief, showing signs of tectonic and volcanic activity, indeed even water flow in their ancient past. I don’t believe any of them have been studied to any significant degree. Some, such as moon II and X show evidence of large impacts that I am surprised did not shatter them. The central uplift in the impact can clearly be seen on X. Ryddinjorn V This planet is similar to Ryddinjorn I and II, albeit with a lower temperature due to distance from the star. CO2 and water ice in low levels that sublimates in the daytime heat, refreezing at night. Micro-organisms of a highly contagious variety for humans; I certainly would not like to be part of any ground survey team, one would be living in hazmat suits for the duration. Scant atmosphere, mostly of nitrogen, with minor noble gases. Atmospheric pressure at 0.91 Pa (8.98×10−6 atm). Evidence of large ancient impact craters, now eroded and partially filled. Basalt mantle, peridotite core, basaltic dust with minor carbonates and some clays and base metals. Ryddinjorn V had two moons, moon I is odd only for its utter lack of features. Smooth basalt with no volcanics, water, impacts, or anything of note. Moon II on the other hand has vast amounts of unusual algal growths in the higher altitudes. Resolution on the imaging showed them to be almost of shrub height, though where they source enough water for growth is mysterious for the rest of the moon appears barren. Topographically varied, there are no distinct highlands and lowlands. Certainly, this moon deserves urgent further study. The atmosphere appears to be oxygen rich, but at low atmospheric pressure of 2.96x10-8 atm. Ryddinjorn VI This rather plain and unremarkable small gas planet has six moons. The planet’s atmosphere is dense and probes do not survive entry to establish precise density with depth. Rich in noble gas although for the most part unreactive. Ionic and aqueous solutions about, indeed it seems to constantly rain in the lower levels. Despite such a fluid rich environment, no life was detected. Planetary winds are mild, with no great storms that other gas giants so often demonstrate. Most of the moons are unremarkable, with III, IV, and VI being exceptions. All are basalt, I, II, and V are undifferentiated, the others have distinct highland and lowland regions, possible formed by partial melting early in their history. They all notably have few large impacts, probably due to the immensity of their neighbour, Ryddinjorn VII, which we will address next. Carbonates detected on moon III of unknown origin. Moon III would be my priority candidate for future research with the highest possibility of subsurface water and life. I simply do not have the time or resources now. Ryddinjorn VII The planet of the moons! This is a most most beautiful and interesting gas planet! Crowned by many hundreds of concentric rings consisting of base metal dust, it has no less than 23 moons! Its size and its position as the outermost planet of the system has clearly made this planet the ‘absorber’ for most impactors entering the system. Like most gas planets, my scout probes simply do not survive long in the dense atmosphere, but enough to declare it mostly non-reactive, moderate noble gases with a suspended liquid fog of aqueous ionic solutions, although not raining as seen on Ryddinjorn VI. It may have a base metal core (undetermined), for this is the only theory I have to explain the unusual ring sequence and composition. Winds are high, with occasional storms and weather fronts, although without lightening. The banded colours divided by latitude appear to be mostly temperature dependent, the water content of the aqueous solutions vary but freeze in the Northern pole. The Southern pole is less affected and warmer, presumably caused by some internal heating mechanism at depth, for not explanation can be forwarded by orbital mechanics. No life can be detected. It took some patience to assay the moons. Many are rather dull and unremarkable, although diligently documented here. The highlights include the vast impact crater directly on the North pole of XI and an ancient huge impact delineated by a dark ring on XXI. The size of the moons generally increase with their numbering. All are basalt, but the larger moons have a higher proportion of deep mantle associated minerals such as bridgmanite, ferropericlase, and davemaoite, olivine, and peridotite. I suspect that some of the moons were simply passing bodies captured by the gravity well of the planet. Others I theorize were a larger body that got shattered into core and fragments, but at such an early time in the system formation that they did not remain shattered in appearance and to some extent readjusted their layerings to a new equilibrium, thus accounting for the diversity in mineral weight types between the moons. No life can be found in any, carbonates were found on XIV and XV meriting further study. Some displayed evidence of highlands and lowlands and past surface reworking, possibly ancient tectonics on VIII, XII, XVII and XXI. And thus I come to the end of my survey of Ryddinjorn. A nice system, albeit with its human dramas. I plan to continue in the Meinigefur constellation of Metropolis, and the Arlek system will by my next report.
