Climate

When the Boheme first arrived on Bohemia, the atmosphere of the planet was already compatible with human life. However, using advanced terraforming technology, they were able to tweak the atmospheric conditions so that the climate closely resembled that of the ancient Terran land of Ireland.

Air Temperature

The north and south polar regions are colder and contain frozen perenially frozen regions. The further towards the equator one moves, the greater the increase in temperature. That being said, in the equatorial region the temperature is only moderate, approximating the temperatures of a warm summer day on the ancient Terran lands of Ireland. Whilst the nearest star is 30% closer to the planet than the Sun was to Earth, this is offset by the much stronger magnetic field surrounding the planet. The reason for this strong magnetic field is that the centre of the planet is composed of an extremely dense metal that generates a powerful magnetic field around the planet.

Air Pressure

In terms of air pressure, the atmosphere is slightly denser as it is 130kpa, or 130,000 pascals of pressure, compared to the 100kpa, or 100,000 pascals, found on Earth. The gas content is similar in terms of the oxygen ratio, however, there is a larger percentage of an inert gas called Argon and less overall Nitrogen.

Gravity

In terms of gravity, the planet has almost exactly the same gravitational conditions as that on earth. This is despite the fact that the planet is significantly smaller than Earth. The reason for this unusual phenomenon is due to the unique composition of the planet’s core. The core is composed predominantly of molten metal that happens to contain a significant portion of a particularly dense metal. For this reason, despite being a small planet, Bohemia has a relatively strong gravity field.
