Uniquely colored desert world with life.

Will we one day explore the worlds of our solar system? How long will this take?

We have a diversity of worlds in our solar system. Majestic places…

Imagine being able to visit Mars and its hostile climate. Imagine being able to visit the moons of Jupiter, observe Io: the volcanic moon, Europa, the frozen moon and Ganymede a moon larger than Mercury itself and that has its own magnetic field. Imagine visiting the moons of Saturn and maybe passing close to your rings… Imagine orbiting or floating through Titan’s atmosphere and closely watching its lakes and seas of methane and liquid ethane. Imagine getting to know the geysers of Enceladus, the valleys of Tethys, and the craters of Mimas… Imagine being able to see the moons of Uranus and have a view of Verona Rupes, the largest cliff of the solar system, located in Miranda. Imagine being able to be in Triton and to be able to observe the cold and azualdo Neptune in the sky…

The inner-most planet of the Insight B System. (Insight B-I)

This scorched desert world orbits just 9,000,000 kilometers from it’s sun and is tidally locked to the star. The planet is 1.1 times Earth’s mass, but has a very large metallic core; therefore, is only 89% of Earth’s diameter.

The planet is covered in a thick sulfur dioxide and carbon dioxide atmosphere with a surface pressure of 32 atmospheres. The surface has a temperature of 818 °F. A massive cyclone constantly rages on the day side with wind speeds of up to 1,000 mph in the upper atmosphere.
