Arbio is a large terrestrial planet in the Proxima Centauri system.
Tumblr media
Its surface is covered in lush forests with many types of plant life, which also stretches far underground. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Arbio’s atmosphere is very thick, making it hard to see the sky from the ground, and making navigating tough. The climate is very humid most of the year.
It is home to one known intelligent species, but not much is documented on them.
Tumblr media
Arbio has one natural satellite, named Sai. It is a basic rocky world with no atmosphere.

And so, on the day the new travelers arrived, Ceto Ceti XV was struck by a small passing asteroid in Cytus’ orbit. The station sustained a large amount of damage, but crews were dispatched quickly to repair the lower deck.
There were minor casualties. Many sustained injuries from oxygen leaks. The travelers wondered if it was really safe to be here? 
The higher ups were questioned, meetings were had. The station overseer insisted the asteroid was meddled with, because there was no possible way it could have gone undetected?
Tumblr media
Nonetheless, Ceto Ceti XV resumed regular operation and the travelers adventures continued.

Sirenox is a frozen wasteland near the very edge of the system.
Tumblr media
Carbon enriched ice gives the sub zero surface a black colour, and long stretches of black ice sit above seas of liquid nitrogen. Not much can survive here for long.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Distant and mysterious. It’s called by many, ‘The void at the end of the universe’ or something similar in several languages. 
Tumblr media
Since not many have visited due to its distance & lack of precious resources, Sirenox has become infamous in stories, daring adventurers to seek it out and discover what secrets it really holds!

Charybdon is a terrestrial planet in the inner system with an extremely dense atmosphere.
Tumblr media
Under the surface of its vast lithium ocean and impressive spires, there is a large network of caves.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Anyone brave enough to endure the harsh, toxic environment is sure to enjoy spectacular views below the surface!

Scyllion is a super-heated terrestrial planet, closest to the sun in the system.
Tumblr media
A thick layer of molten rock covers its surface, along with tall pillars of solidified red rock. Traveling here is not advised without proper preparation.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Scyllion and Charybdon are considered twin planets by most, both very dangerous and hot due to their proximity in the inner system.
They can each be seen clearly from each others surface!

Circel is a anomaly in the system.
Tumblr media
It is thought that an unknown alien race used this planet for testing terraforming technology, before abandoning it long ago.
It has since been thriving, and life there has spiraled into diverse chaos. It's quite a marvel!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Circel is home to a wide range of environments, from enchanted pink forests to golden seas.
The earth appears to be rich in nutrients & the wildlife has adapted accordingly, creating an interesting food chain.
Most creatures get along & very few need to hunt.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Circel has one moon, but it is unknown if it is natural or not. The surface is covered in a layer of metal. Perhaps the aliens used it as a point of interest in their testing?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Inhabiting the surface of Circel is an aggressive species of insect-like creatures. Their hives stretch for long distances, scattered across large patches of forested land and even expanding underground.

Hydryx is a water planet with the most abundant life in the system!
Tumblr media
Its surface is almost completely submerged, spare for a few tall rock formations. Not many have explored this world due to its hostile environment, which has allowed life to flourish mostly untouched.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Hydryx has the largest moon in the whole system. It is mostly made up of radioactive raw materials and is home to an interesting metallic sand that seems to have magnetic properties.
Tumblr media
Large spires poke up from the ground beneath the water, even sometimes stretching up past the surface! These formations were thought to be formed due to the tides created from Hydryx’s moon, collecting the material over time.

Cytus is a terrestrial, super-earth type planet found in the Tau Ceti system.
Tumblr media
It has a sulfur rich atmosphere, which pools into large lakes & has traces of early animal life. It's become a popular location due to its 14 moons, which have been extensively mined for resources.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Though relatively safe to live on with breathable atmosphere, some regions see a deadly acid rain. Luckily the massive, sky reaching terrain offers helpful cover!
Tumblr media
In Cytus' orbit, is a small space station which slowly grew over time, eventually becoming the central travelling hub for the whole system!

So this was mostly a backup account I was going to use once twt dies, but I think it's a good idea to start cataloging those posts here, with proper tags and stuff.
I'll be reposing everything from twt over the next week or so so apologies if you've already seen it

i got no idea how I haven't seen this before but i love it, keep the good work and uhhh
if you don't mind, how does one join? even if I can't fir one reason or another i still love the effort and dedication to making an entire new galaxy for this
btw, ad astra is currently under a rework, which is basically the devs starting back from scratch to make it a better mod, we still don't know if some things might still be compatible so just beware of that
long ask
Tysm!! I've mostly been posting to twt here, so that's the best place for updates. We're accepting apps very soon!
Currently the modpack were using is 1.19.2 and there's no plans to update beyond that until the very far future, season 2 possibly, if that even happens. But that's a long ways off! We're focused on getting it up and running in it's current state first.
