Bilom

Bilom is a fictional planet located in the Cygnus X-1 system, approximately 6,070 light-years from Earth. It is described as a terrestrial world with a breathable atmosphere, though its composition differs from Earth's, featuring higher concentrations of nitrogen and trace amounts of noble gases. The planet's surface is characterized by vast, arid plains interspersed with rugged mountain ranges and shallow, saline seas. Bilom has a single, large moon that significantly influences its tides.

The indigenous flora of Bilom is adapted to its arid climate, with hardy, succulent-like plants dominating the landscape. Fauna is scarce and largely subterranean, consisting of small, resilient creatures that have evolved to survive the harsh surface conditions. Bilom's star, a blue supergiant, bathes the planet in intense radiation, necessitating natural shielding provided by dense atmospheric layers and geological formations for any potential life to thrive.

While no sentient species have been definitively documented on Bilom, orbital scans have indicated the presence of unusual geological structures that some xenobiologists have theorized could be artificial in origin. These formations are located in a region known as the "Silent Zone," characterized by peculiar electromagnetic readings. Further exploration and analysis are required to confirm these hypotheses. Bilom remains a subject of interest for its unique environmental conditions and the potential for undiscovered biological or geological phenomena.
