Velkatilantea

Velkatilantea is a fictional planet located in the Andromeda Galaxy. Its star system is characterized by a binary sun, with the two stars, Velka Prime and Velka Secundus, orbiting a common center of mass. This celestial arrangement results in unique diurnal and seasonal patterns on the planet's surface, with periods of intense light and heat followed by cooler, dimmer phases.

The planet's atmosphere is rich in nitrogen and oxygen, with trace amounts of argon and methane. This composition supports a diverse range of life forms. The dominant flora on Velkatilantea consists of bioluminescent plants that absorb energy from both suns, emitting a soft glow during the dimmer periods. These plants are crucial to the planet's ecosystem, providing sustenance and shelter for various fauna.

Fauna on Velkatilantea exhibits a wide array of adaptations. Many species possess hardened exoskeletons to protect against the fluctuating solar radiation, while others have developed sophisticated methods of camouflage to blend in with the glowing vegetation. The planet is home to several intelligent species, the most prominent being the Lumina, who have developed advanced societies deeply intertwined with the planet's natural cycles and the properties of its flora. Their technology often incorporates bio-luminescent materials and energy harnessing from the binary suns.
