Nayart

Nayart is a fictional planet located in the outer rim of the Andromeda galaxy. It is characterized by its predominantly arid climate and vast desert landscapes. The planet's surface is dotted with ancient, eroded rock formations and sparse, hardy vegetation that has adapted to the harsh conditions. Nayart has a thin atmosphere, requiring specialized equipment for off-world visitors to breathe comfortably.

The indigenous population of Nayart are known as the K'tharr. They are a nomadic species, traditionally living in underground dwellings to escape the extreme surface temperatures and sandstorms. The K'tharr are known for their resilience and their deep understanding of their planet's unique ecosystem. Their society is structured around tribal communities, with a strong emphasis on oral tradition and ancestral knowledge.

Economically, Nayart is not a major hub. Its primary exports are rare minerals, harvested from deep underground deposits, and unique biological samples from its extremophile flora and fauna. These resources are highly sought after by galactic collectors and scientific institutions. Interstellar trade is limited, primarily conducted through a few established spaceports on the planet's northern continent, which experiences slightly less extreme weather patterns. Despite its challenging environment, Nayart holds a certain allure for explorers and xenobiologists due to its distinct geological features and the enigmatic K'tharr civilization.
