Pantheon is the largest planet in the KRML Cluster. It has an atmosphere that can support human and plant life. Pantheon has drinkable water, but it currently lacks soil rich enough to support plants. The terrain is relatively smooth. The planet has one major volcano– Mt. Valhalla– which has shown predictable thermal activity. The planet also has lakes, gaseous fumaroles, deep fissures, and meteorite craters. Rock analysis has revealed an abundance of minerals. Deep Space Terraforming teams have completed construction of a hydroponics greenhouse, and are growing edible plants there. In addition there are space habitats, a communications transmitter, solar station, atmosphere factory, and some roadways already established on the planet’s surface.
