Class U, Vaporous/Gaseous
 |
Planet Category #7
| Heavy ranging to very thin atmospheres consisting
of various elements, mostly comprised of helium or of hydrogen. Specific
gravities can range from 0.2 to 8.0 of Earth normal. Climate patterns usually
extremely violent with temps ranging from -200 to 400 Celsius. Full life
support required at all times. No production can sustain itself on a Class
U planet. Some miners have hinted at very valuable products that
they have extracted from Class U worlds but the Federation does not have
them in its "Official Guide to Mining". Class U planets are not recommended
for colonizations as the environment is harsher than being in space itself. |
