Hoth |
Frigid Terrestrial |
Orbiting sixth from the sun of the same name, the inner five planets
are lifeless rocks and outside of Hoth lays an orbiting, wide and
chaotic asteroid belt, from which meteors often strike Hoth. Hoth has
an extreme freezing temperature range. With it's axial tilt, orbital
position, and atmospheric makeup, Hoth's daytime high temperature is
-32 degrees standard, while at night this can plummet to -60 degrees
standard with the wind chill making it feel worse still. The entire
surface of Hoth is covered with ice, although in various locations,
volcanic fissures open up steam vents, depositing rock and minerals in
darkerpatches on the glacial plains. A few mountain chains penetrate
the permanent ice shelves, and some of these are geologically active.
