Planet Polybius - The Atmosphere
The UWSA’s probe, Aemilianus, is investigating Polybius, our solar system's furthest planet. These images are initial pictures of Polybius' atmosphere. Of interest to scientists searching for biosignatures in atmospheres to give clues about the future of our own planet and certainly not as a potential escape route from a global catastrophe.

Aemilianus very first image, fittingly, is a new dawn on Polybius. The Pink Chromosphere & Prominences mean an area of cooler, lower-atmosphere plasma whilst the yellow corona indicates a dimmer resonance picked up by the lens.
In a near miraculous twist, Polybius could well have a Micro Dyson Sphere in its atmosphere. The dense wall makes it almost impossible to see inside the ‘halo’ and the possibilities of what is contained inside intrigues, thrills and terrifies scientists equally, some who believe it could contain a compact, artificially generated world.

This image of a complete yellow sky indicates a fluorine heavy atmosphere. UWSA experts deny this proves nuclear power being used on Polybius by its inhabitants and is more likely a ‘lens issue’ on the probe Aemilianus.
The orange "udder-shaped" clouds will appear under a storm's anvil, here looking fiery vermillion. This is in part to an atmospheric phenomenon where sunlight scatters through the thick cloud layers, leaving only the longer yellow-orange-red wavelengths visible. A clear sign of high-altitude cirrus clouds and severe weather conditions (thunderstorms). NASA reject the claim it is Polybius' digital life and the cloudflare's security-enabled traffic proxy.
