Planet Polybius - Images from space
From a distance, Polybius (our solar system's 10th planet), could be any other world. However, images beamed back by UWSA’s secret planetary probe, Aemilianus, are starting to cast doubt on that theory that Polybius is anything but ‘just another world’.

Polybius’ yellow sky over its western polar region results from a mix of intense solar particle collisions with oxygen and nitrogen in the upper atmosphere, creating rare, vivid auroras, exacerbated by the cold winter days.

The magenta sky over Polybius’ eastern polar region is caused by nitrogen atoms interacting with high-energy solar particles in the atmosphere, creating these rare, vibrant magenta auroras. All extended in intensity by the dark polar nights.
