Voolers

Voolers are a fictional species that appear in the science fiction novel "Project Hail Mary" by Andy Weir. They are an extraterrestrial, sentient, and technological race. Physically, voolers are described as being very large, resembling giant centipedes with multiple limbs. Their bodies are covered in a tough, segmented exoskeleton that provides protection. They possess a highly advanced understanding of science and engineering, enabling them to construct sophisticated spacecraft and other complex machinery. Voolers communicate through a series of clicks and whistles, a form of communication that is difficult for other species to decipher. They are known for their logical and pragmatic approach to problem-solving, often prioritizing efficiency and survival above all else. Their society appears to be highly structured and organized. The voolers encountered in "Project Hail Mary" are not inherently malicious but are focused on their own species' survival and well-being, which can sometimes lead to conflict or misunderstanding with other races. Their technological prowess and unique biology make them a significant element of the novel's narrative.
