Orbit 4 - Alvara

Alvara is a terrestrial, rocky planet located at a distance of 6.1 astronomical units from the G2 star Sol, just beyond the Inner Asteroid Belt. The planet has a thick atmosphere composed mostly of carbon dioxide, with traces of nitrogen and other gases. Due to its proximity to the star and the greenhouse effect caused by its atmosphere, Alvara experiences extreme temperatures, with surface temperatures often exceeding 500°C. The planet's surface is barren and lifeless, with no known liquid water or signs of organic compounds. Alvara's geology is characterized by vast plains and mountain ranges, with occasional volcanoes and impact craters dotting the landscape. Despite its inhospitable conditions, Alvara is an important object of study for planetary scientists, who are interested in understanding the geological and atmospheric processes that shape the planet. Additionally, the planet's proximity to the Inner Asteroid Belt makes it a potentially important location for resource mining in the future.
