Description

Foofor is a restricted system at the edge of the Dominion Sphere in Octant 7.

The second planet is an ammonia world.  Spanial encountered Yarg ships there.

  

Foofor 2

The brown-orange coloured planet is visible through the windows. From this angle the day-night terminator is visible and lightning storms can be seen sparking across the night side.

Ipan is speaking, “…there’s a lot of radio interference coming off the planet from the storms, but I should still be able to pick up a response.”

This is an Ammonia world.  They’re relatively rare, and tend to be found only around dim red stars as brighter stars tend to throw off too much UV light and break down the ammonia in the atmosphere.  Otherwise, they’re occasionally found as moons of gas giants far from the star.  The brown-orange colour of the planet is due to the ammonia clouds in the atmosphere.  There’s probably a healthy dose of methane there too, with seas of ammonia and possibly even some water below, and any oxygen will be bound up with hydrogen as liquid water. 
The ammonia in the atmosphere of these worlds tends to leech a lot of metals from the crust and can form complex chemical compounds that tend to form layers in both atmosphere and sea, as a result, such worlds can be very electrically active as electric potentials form between layers and then discharge.

  

Habitability

The surface of this planet will be uninhabitable for humans.  There is no oxygen in the atmosphere, some gases may be corrosive and the temperature will be about -100°C.  There may be land, or the entire surface could be covered with an ocean of ammonia – you’d need to task Spanial’s sensors to a planetary survey to answer that.  That said, those environmental extremes are within what can be accommodated by Spanial’s vacc suits.
