Yeseg
Yeseg is a terrestrial planet in the Aristia system of the Viperius Galaxy.
Planetary Data
Yeseg is a super-earth.
Size
The radius of Yeseg is approximately 8015km, around 1.25 times Earth. However, it is denser, with a mass 1.99 times Earth's. This makes its gravity 1.19G.
Composition
Yeseg's density is due to its high metallicity, with large quantities of metal and very little silicon. It is 43.4% oxygen, 20.9% magnesium, 19.4% iron, 14.7% silicon, 0.5% other metals, and 1.0% other elements.
Surface
Yeseg's surface area is 8.07E8km2, of which 74% of water and 2% is ice. The minimum surface temperature is 5 °C, the average is 25 °C, and the highest recorded is 49 °C.
Atmosphere
There is a reasonably dense atmosphere, 79.9% nitrogen, 18.5% oxygen, 0.78% argon and the rest other gases, mainly water vapour. It is extremely cloudy.
Rotation
Yeseg's orbital period is 21.99 hours, and its axial tilt is an unsteady 10.28 degrees, causing larger seasonal variation.
Satellites
Yeseg has two small moons, each around an eighth of Earth's Moon's mass. They are probably captured asteroids.
Inhabitants
Zyrothans live here, and there are many non-sapient species.
Animals include the Aragtora. Other organisms include the Ezafes and Hurrun Bush.
Settlements
There are more than 300 cities on Yeseg, the largest having around 20 million inhabitants. They are on every continent except the poles.
There are also eight space stations in orbit. One of these is owned by the Salsene Grand Fleet, and is used as the Salsene embassy.
