Cors Tairane

Cors Tairane is a temperate world located in the Ioleria Prime star system with a population of ~2.53 trillion. It is first planet orbiting Ioleria Prime, and the prime administrative capital of the entire Tairane Federation, and has been so for many millenniums. The planet is host to a wide variety of lifeforms, including the Arathelian species. Cors Tairane has one natural satellite, which is known as Decura. Cors Tairane is a temperate world with a wide variety of landscapes. The planet is home to numerous large plains, towering mountain ranges, sparse deserts, lush forests, and rainforests, thick jungles, and beautiful lakes. There are also countless large metropolitan areas across the planet, which are home to billions of Tairane citizens. The capital city of Cors Tairane is named likewise to the planet, which is located in the northwest peninsula of the continent of Arathel. The atmosphere consists primarily nitrogen (78%), oxygen (21%), Argon (.93%) carbon dioxide (.042%). There are also traces amounts other gases including: water vapor, methane, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide and ammonia present as well but not in significant enough quantities for anyone without advanced sensor equipment or special chemical detectors to notice them by smell alone.

Stephyios

Stephyios is a temperate world located in the Ioleria Prime star system. It is the second most populous planet in the Tairane Federation and within Ioleria Prime, with a total population of just over ~1.52 trillion individuals. The planet has one natural satellite known as Phoroa, which orbits very closely to Stephyios itself. Stephyios has two major landmasses: Depheos and Vythea (which make up ~15% of total surface area), as well numerous small islands dotting its oceans. The planet's climate is temperate with a large range of temperatures, from the frigid waters of the poles to the warm and humid jungles near the equator. The planet's atmosphere consists primarily nitrogen (72%), oxygen (19.48%), argon (.06%), and carbon dioxide (.040%).

Laurenac

Laurenac is a terraformed arid world located in the Ioleria Prime system. It is the third planet out from the star, and has an orbit of 317 days. It has a diameter of 8,530 km, and a mass of 0.6M_⊙. It has a surface gravity of 0.8g, and an atmospheric pressure of 1atm. The surface temperature averages at 33°C, and the atmospheric composition is 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, and 1% trace gases.

Prior to its terraforming, Laurenac was a barren and lifeless world. Its surface was covered in an arid desert, with very little water. The temperature was incredibly hot, and the atmosphere was almost entirely composed of carbon dioxide. The terraforming process began in the year 3255 CE, and was completed in the year 3320 CE.

The planet is home to ~1.1 trillion Arathelians, as well as a small number of other naturalized sentient species. The planet is the primary mining hub of Tairane Federation, and is responsible for a large portion of the Tairane Federation's mineral production. The planet has a total surface area of ~127 million km².

Outer Solar System

Outer Planets

Orissa

Orissa is the fourth planet of Ioleria Prime and the first gas giant. It is the fourth largest gas giant, and consists primarily of hydrogen, helium, methane, ammonia, water vapor and other trace gases. The gas giant has a very dense liquid metal atmosphere, covering an iron-nickel inner core surrounded by a metallic rocky mantle. There are numerous large moons orbiting Orissa: Sargas, Corus, and Kurosa. All three are inhabited by colonies established prior to the Cors Tairane Pact, with each moon being home to several hundred billion people on average as of recent census report.

Taros

Taros is a gas giant located in the Ioleria Prime star system. It is the largest planet in the system and has two major natural satellites, Taros II and Taros III. Taros is mostly composed of hydrogen and helium gas, with a small amount of methane present as well. The planet does not have a solid surface and its atmosphere is very dense. The gas giant is the central naval hub and midpoint for the Tairane Navy fleet, and is home to a large number of military facilities, and orbital shipyards.

The gas giant is the auxiliary primary headquarters of the Tairane Navy beyond Cors Tairane, tasked with patrolling and defending the outer interstellar medium of Ioleria Prime. and is home to a quarter of the entire naval fleet at any given time. The gas giant hosts an array of enormous number of military facilities located on it, as well as capital-grade orbital shipyards used to construct and maintain the fleet. The planet is heavily patrolled and defended by a five task groups consisting of no more than 3 battlecruisers, 5 cruisers, 5 cutters,10 destroyers, and orbital defense platforms. Taros is also home to a large number of civilian stations and facilities, including several mining operations and research stations. Taros has a population of over ~835 billion individuals.

Ral Ashara

Ral Ashara is a gas giant located in the Ioleria Prime star system. It is the second largest planet in the system and has four natural satellites, it is composed primarily of hydrogen and helium, and is the sixth planet from Ioleria Prime. The gas giant is notable for being the boundary location of the Ioleria Prime asteroid belt, which lies between Taros and Ral Ashara.

The gas giant's main other notable feature is the ring system that lies around it. The rings are composed of water ice and dust, with a diameter of over 1 million kilometers in some places. The rings are also surveyed to be very dense, with an estimated thickness of up to 5 kilometers in some areas. A significant amount civilian mining facilities were constructed around the gas giant for the purpose of extracting various rare minerals from Ral Ashara's asteroids. In recent years, these facilities have been repurposed for the production of naval hardware for the Tairane Navy, and several nearby star systems in response to increased hazard with intersystem piracy.

Ismusa

Ismusa is an ice giant located in the Ioleria Prime star system. It is the third largest planet in the system and has 14 known natural satellites, Ismusa is mostly composed of hydrogen, methane and helium gas, The planet does not have a solid surface and its atmosphere is very dense. The ice giant's moons are rich in water ice, which is used to supply the Tairane Federation's many water needs.

Metene

Metene is the eighth and final planet of Ioleria Prime, and an ice giant, The gas giant is the final member of the "Gas Giant Belt", and is orbited by four moons; Aricos, Ohrace, Thyeco and Levise. Metene is classified as an ice giant; with the large majority of its atmospheric composition being hydrogen (~80%) with smaller traces of helium (10%), methane (5%) and water vapour (2%). The planet has no surface or solid core; though it possesses a "mantle" layer composed of high-pressure forms of water.

The planet's enormous orbital distance from its parent star has resulted in some fairly extreme conditions on Metene; as its upper atmosphere is only marginally warmer than absolute zero (1.2 K). However, despite the extreme low temperatures and lack of heat from Ioleria's sun, the planet does not emit less light than would be expected for a body of its size; rather it emits far more. The reason for this phenomenon is still unknown to Tairane astronomers and astrophysicists society; though it is theorized to be caused by the energy released from radioactive decay within the planet's core.

The ice giant is the farthest resupply point for civilian and naval fleets voyaging within and outside Ioleria Prime without utilizing the Tairane Hyperlane Network, and as such has no permanent population; though the ice giant does possess numerous naval and military installations to help defend the system's borders. The planet also serves as an important research facility for Tairane scientists to study the strange "aurora" and several unidentified astronomical phenomena that surround the planet. In addition, there are also several small mining facilities orbiting the planet; though many of these have been abandoned for centuries, due to the extreme conditions of Metene.
