Location: Milky Way / Apien Crest / Castellus System / Second planet
Description[]
A small terrestrial planet bathed in argon and carbon dioxide, Nios has a pressure-cooker atmosphere. Probes revealed calcite cliffs but few valuable minerals, and so the planet had only a few artificial satellites when the Reapers hit. Fragments from destroyed scientific research stations and spy drones litters the planet's Lagrangian points, presenting a navigation hazard.
