Spolventils

Spolventils is a fictional planet located in the Andromeda Galaxy, approximately 2.537 million light-years from Earth. It is the third planet orbiting the star Andromedae Prime, a G-type main-sequence star similar to our Sun. Spolventils is characterized by its vibrant, emerald-green oceans and continents that are predominantly covered in dense, bioluminescent flora. The atmosphere is rich in oxygen and nitrogen, with trace amounts of argon, making it breathable for some known alien lifeforms.

The planet's surface gravity is approximately 0.9 G, slightly less than Earth's. Spolventils experiences a tidal lock with Andromedae Prime, meaning one side of the planet perpetually faces the star, resulting in a permanent "day side" and "night side." The "day side" is a region of constant sunlight, characterized by high temperatures and extensive deserts interspersed with lush, humid jungle belts where most of the planet's known life thrives. The "night side" is a realm of perpetual darkness and extreme cold, with vast ice sheets and geothermally active zones.

Life on Spolventils has evolved to adapt to these extreme conditions. The dominant intelligent species, known as the Lumina, are silicon-based lifeforms that communicate through intricate patterns of bioluminescence. They have developed a sophisticated understanding of their planet's unique ecosystem and possess advanced bio-engineering capabilities. Research suggests that Spolventils may hold significant clues to understanding alternative life chemistries and planetary evolution.
