Tarosan

Tarosan is a fictional planet located in the Alpha Centauri star system. It is the third planet from Alpha Centauri A, orbiting within its habitable zone. Astronomical observations suggest Tarosan possesses a dense atmosphere, primarily composed of nitrogen and oxygen, with trace amounts of other gases. Surface temperatures are estimated to be within a range conducive to liquid water, which is believed to be abundant on the planet.

The planet's surface is characterized by vast oceans, large continental landmasses, and a significant polar ice cap. Geological surveys indicate a volcanic and tectonicly active planet, with mountain ranges and deep oceanic trenches. Tarosan's gravity is approximately 1.2 times that of Earth, and its rotational period is roughly 28 Earth hours. The planet has one natural satellite, a large moon named Lunara.

Early exploratory probes have detected complex organic molecules in Tarosan's atmosphere and oceans, leading to speculation about the possibility of indigenous life. Further research is ongoing to confirm these findings and to understand the planet's unique environment and potential for habitability. Tarosan remains a primary target for future interstellar exploration missions.
