Crataxia (or Beta Delta Gamma II) was the inhabited second planet in the Xilnar system. It was the homeworld of the Crataxians, and the Terilz. It was also the newest member of the Federation as of late 2438.
The planet was mildly cosmopolitan, allowing only UFP members to visit. This was due to the fragility and extensive complexities in basic Crataxian society.
Planetary data[]
Crataxia was a spheroid planet, although geological detail caused a paradox which said the planet began as a closed torus. The planets circumference was 23,545 miles (37,892 km), a mean mass of 5.978×1024 kilograms and a density of 5.47 g/cm3. The planets atmosphere was an average of 61(.7) °F (16{.5} °C) and consisted of 83.4% nitrogen, 11.3% oxygen, 2.3% carbon dioxde and traces of krypton, argon and neon.
Crataxia had 2 natural satellites being Vuy, the inhabited [and largest] one, and Ali, the smallest and uninhabited one.
Location[]
On a heading, Crataxia was located at 261-mark-230, in the NW corner of the Beta Quadrant. This was also over 2700 light years from Earth.
History[]
Formation[]
Radiodating of the planet by Geologist showed the planets age to be 5.4 billion years old. The oldest inhabited planet known, a definite explanation to the sophisticated and enhanced life on the planet. Geological fragmentation (remnants of asteroids which formed the planet) also showed that only 5 asteroids formed Crataxia.
Evolution[]
Carbon dating of biological substances on the planet identifies the shared starting point of evolution began 3,913,075,232 years ago, 113,075,232 years before that on Earth. 2,853,243 years for Crataxian hominids. The saturation of Nitrogen also lead to 7.4 of 7.41 million species being dependent on nitrogen.
Pre-extraplanetary[]
In 2023 (Crataxian time) Crataxia launched it's first long-term spacecraft, which contained 4 years worth of basic necessities. 8 years and 5 spacecraft later a 1-1.4 acre large Lunar facility was forged on Vuy. By 2035 Crataxia had a progressively growing Lunar colony of 40+ inhabitants. In 2044 3 space stations were launched in orbit, a total area of 1.6 acres and 3 stories of height, by 2046 the trio had became the first public low high-orbit facility on the planet. By 2073 Crataxia had 3 total facilities which were not based on their planet, and which retained over 200 people.
