Asalars III
A planet in the Asalars System, which is owned by the Grand Artanat Empire.
Asalars III is a very hot barren planet due to its average distance from the star and massive size of the star, a B class main sequence star. Much of the heat emitted by the star ends up on the planet. Additionally, as the atmosphere is relatively thick, it retains more heat than an average world. As such this planet is often classified as almost between the hotbarren ald lava planet classes. There is a significant volcanic activity and in many locations lava can be seen on the surface.
This is one of the few worlds that has not been terraformed entirely by the GAE, but despite this a significant population thrives under a significant dome-like structure that was designed to resist all types of natural disasters. Theyhavebuilt seeral of these kinds of cities. They often have a large power generator at the center that operates off nuclear fusion reactions. The cities are capable of storing large amounts of hydrogen, but they will require hydrogen to be shipped to it via shuttle.
In reality, these cities are hit often by natural disasters, often eqrthquakes. A such, many have been shifted form their original locations and others, rotated. These most often cause little damage to the cities, as well as the items in the cities, but can structures inside to shift in a way that objects, e.g. benches, that used to be level now aren't. To counter this, clever Grand Artanat Empire engineers placed the cities in large gyroscope-like machines. This way, a city can remain level regardless of how much it is knocked around. Furthermore, the cities are also placed on massive suspensions that absorb most of the shock of an earthquake. Although this makes the cities impossible to expand, the GAE simply adds more cities instead, of various sizes. Hundreds of these can be seen across the globe across all corners of the planet.
