Planet

Planets are, simply speaking, large spherical masses in space. Planets generally orbit stars, but rogue planets are not uncommon. Their size, composition and features can vary greatly, with such planets such as Voga (a planet largely made of gold) and Barcelona (a planet with noseless dogs). The exact definition of a planet varies between cultures.

There are a number of highly unusual planets in the universe, including Magla, in reality an immense amoeba with a crust-like shell, and Mondas, the twin world of Earth, which for part of its existence had a planetary drive system.

The creation of a number of planets was artificially accelerated through the interference (intentional or not) of other life forms. Normally in these cases large starships provided the initial large mass which began the process of planetary formation. Such a fate befell the Minyan ship the P7E by accident (and nearly also happened to another Minyan vessel, the R1C), and the vessel carrying the last of the Racnoss by design.
