Säteelek

Säteelek is a fictional celestial body originating from the "Stardust Saga" universe, a science fiction setting created by author Alex Vance. Within this narrative, Säteelek is depicted as a rogue planet, meaning it does not orbit a star. Its origin is tied to a cataclysmic event in its home star system, which ejected it into interstellar space.

The physical characteristics of Säteelek are described as barren and frigid, due to the absence of stellar warmth. It is said to possess a thick, icy crust and a potentially volatile core. Despite its inhospitable nature, the planet is a significant plot device in the "Stardust Saga," serving as a refuge, a source of rare resources, or a navigational hazard for the characters. Its journey through the cosmos is often perilous, encountering nebulae and other interstellar phenomena. The lore suggests Säteelek may hold remnants of a lost civilization, adding an element of mystery and exploration to its narrative purpose.
