Baten Kaitos is a
planetary system orbiting a orange K-class star. The system lies in
the Cetus Constellation of the Cetus Region.
Baten Kaitos is a large, red giant sun orbited
by a gas giant. The gas giant, Baten
Kaitos B's largest moon has a surface that's
covered in water. The moon froze over
early after cooling during the system's
formation. As the sun grew into a red
giant, the ice melted covering the moon in a
global ocean.
Despite
having generally habitable temperatures, the
moon lacks any land areas as it's entire surface
is a deep ocean. The system's entire
population reside in orbital cities around the
moon and gas giant.
