Kestiria

Kestiria is a fictional planet located in the Andromeda Galaxy. It is known for its unique geological formations, characterized by towering crystal spires that pierce the planet's atmosphere. These spires are believed to be the result of a rare mineral deposit reacting with the planet's high atmospheric pressure and specific magnetic field. The planet's surface is largely arid, with vast deserts of fine, iridescent sand. Sparse vegetation exists, primarily hardy, low-lying plants that have adapted to the harsh conditions and draw moisture from subterranean reserves.

The climate of Kestiria is extreme, with significant temperature fluctuations between day and night. Days can reach scorching temperatures, while nights plummet to well below freezing. Kestiria experiences two moons, which influence its tidal patterns and the intensity of its nocturnal light. The planet is orbited by a faint ring system, composed mainly of ice particles and asteroid debris. Little is known about indigenous life, though preliminary surveys suggest the possibility of microbial organisms existing deep beneath the surface. Kestiria has been identified as a potential site for future scientific exploration due to its unusual mineralogy and geological activity.
