Information taken primarily from Star Trek: Star Charts indicates this is a "reducing" planet having an age that ranges from 3 to 10 billion years, and a diameter between 10,000 and 15,000 km. Star Charts mentions reducing planets are located within the "ecosphere" of a star system, with class N planets categorized by a high surface temperature due to greenhouse effect (which causes all water on the planet to exist only as vapor) and an extremely dense atmosphere, comprised of carbon dioxide and sulfides. If life can exist on a class N planet, it is unknown in what form(s) it may appear, a textbook example of a Class N planet is Venus. | Information taken primarily from Star Trek: Star Charts indicates this is a "reducing" planet having an age that ranges from 3 to 10 billion years, and a diameter between 10,000 and 15,000 km.
