Ponolus

Description
A fairly typical Venusian"hothouse", Ponolus seems almost tame compared to the violent volcanic outbursts of the inner world Beregale. In contrast, Ponolus is nearly inert, with no active volcanoes or plate tectonics. The most dramatic event in the last million years was the foundering of the asari aerostat research platform Alviusic in 2092, which fell after being holed by an improbably unlucky meteor. Most of the crew successfully reached escape capsules, but six were lost. The crushed wreck of the platform now lies on teh Kriusite Plain in the southern hemisphere.
