Wandering Planet

Console: event extreme_frontiers.390

Description

…'s composition does not match that of other planets in its vicinity. It does however align perfectly with various celestial bodies in the neighboring [event_target:wandering_planet_origin.GetName] system, suggesting its true origin.

The planet's surface is marked by a particularly large impact crater, leading us to assume it was dislodged from its original orbit by a massive asteroid collision. This free floating rogue planet was then later captured by the gravity well of …, where it assumed its unusual reverse orbit.

This remarkable planet has resided in two different systems since it formed, providing rich opportunities for further study.
