Planet Erra, a peaceful planet with violent weather.
Hello.
Thank you for being here with me once more.
I hope you are very well today.
I am Mari.
Welcome to my channel.
I take my information very seriously, and for whoever has eyes to see.
I am writing this on the morning of April 21 and 23, 2025.
I hardly ever write about planets, so I thought it might be a good idea to share
with you
how they are described as best as possible.
I have mentioned planet Temmer countless times before, while talking about other
things,
so I feel it gets a lot of attention anyway, more so as it is the most important
planet
for the Taygetan civilization, at least from a sociocultural, industrial and
population
point of view.
So I decided to talk about planet Erra, the next one moving away from the Star
Taygetan.
It is the second planet of four large ones, plus a lot of planet-words,
asteroids, and
space-rocks that accompany any solar system.
Erra is also the most notorious planet of Taygetan because of the Billy Meier
story,
at least before my predecessors started to share our information, when Temmer
started
to get more attention simply because it is the so-called capital planet of the
Taygetan
civilization.
Planet Erra is slightly smaller than Earth, which gives it a gravity-strength
index of 0.8 G, as compared to Earth.
But unlike planet Temmer, Erra is not considered a super-inhabitable planet
because of its super-harsh
winters, which can be quite violent.
It's orbit is quite elliptical, which gives it extreme weather, which is also
made worse
by its strong-axis inclination.
This causes that when the planet is at its furthest point from the Sun,
Taygetan, the effect
of its axis inclination adds to the one of the increased distance to the Sun.
This causes an added cooling effect that affects each hemisphere depending on
the time of its
year, and on its axial inclination.
When Erra is at its furthest point in its orbit around Taygeta, it enters a
strong planet-wide
winter, which means that the entire planet cools down.
And this is when the axial inclination makes that planetary cooling even worse
for the
hemisphere that is getting its solar radiation at an inclined angle, as it has a
double
cooling effect.
According to my data, Erra in one of its double winters may reach very low
temperatures
close to minus 80 degrees Celsius close to its poles.
Although typically it reaches between 45 and 55 degrees Celsius below zero.
For comparison reasons, when a hemisphere on Earth enters winter, it is because
of the
solar rays reaching the planet at an angle because of its axial inclination, and
not because
of any added distance which may be caused by Earth's slightly elliptical orbit.
In the case of Erra, its orbit is so elliptical that it does cause a strong
effect on the
temperature and on the planet's seasons.
Also, as a comparison point, planet Temmer has a very stable weather and
seasons, which
are almost non-existent, and this is caused by its almost perfectly circular
orbit around
Taygeta, added to a nearly non-existent axial inclination.
This causes Temmer to have very stable seasons, if it has any at all, and also a
very stable
weather.
Although some violent hurricanes, such as the one we experienced last year, may
occur from
time to time.
This gives Temmer the quality of being a super-inhabitable planet, which means
that it is friendlier
to human-lyrian life than planet Earth, unlike Erra, which is only friendly for
half of
its orbital year.
Planet Erra is a forest planet, as coniferous trees cover nearly all its land
masses,
to the point where that species of trees vastly dominate over other species.
There are hundreds of subspecies of coniferous trees on Erra, far more than the
ones found
on Earth, and the most dominant ones tend to grow almost three times as tall as
the ones
on Earth.
Most probably because of the planet's low gravity which is only 80% of the one
of Earth,
and because of the increased concentration of oxygen in Erra's atmosphere.
70% of the surface of the planet is landmass, and only 30% is oceans.
At its water cycle systems compensate for the lack of oceans with a very large
number
of landlocked sweet water lakes, which dot the entire planet, all connected by a
very
large number of rivers and creeks connecting them.
Erra is a coniferous forest planet with very high, eternal snow-covered
mountains, which
gives it its uniqueness.
A typical Erra scene is a log cabin at the side of a lake, surrounded by tall
pine trees,
and snow-covered mountains in the background, which reflect on to the lake.
Most of the population of planet Erra, which is about 3.7 million, roughly 10%
of the total
Taygetan population, lives in its three main cities, which are Erra City, the
planet capital
and the largest one.
Erra City, also called Yedera, is built near the planet's equator, which is its
warmest
point year-round.
Erra City is a seaport, built at the shore of the planet's largest ocean, and is
characterized
by having high glass-like skyscrapers in a very salation style.
The next one is Yed Lysit City, which is also built near its equator, but on the
opposite
side of the planet and is also a seaport.
But inside a large river some kilometers inland, yet sea ships also come in and
out of
it.
But unfortunately, the water masses near Erra City and Yed Lysit City do not
connect, making
sea transportation between both cities impossible.
And the smallest of the three main cities in Erra is Yedwasad, which is situated
on a
large volcanic mountain in the middle of Erra's largest landmass, halfway
between the
equator and the planet's polar regions.
It is considered to be the most difficult city to live in of the three, because
it is
the coldest.
Yedwasad is partially built into the side of a volcanic mountain, making it easy
to spot
from afar as its countless city windows light up its side many levels high and
following
the mountain's natural contours.
The large city windows are embedded into the rock, with natural formations in
between,
and the interior also exploits the natural cavernous systems found inside.
This makes it a unique city, as there is no other like it, and it was designed
like so,
to be able to face Erra's harsh winters as best as possible.
All four main cities on Erra have their own spaceports, although the largest one
by
far is on Erra City.
But even being the largest on the planet it is only about 10% the size of the
spaceport
in Toleka City, Temmer, and Cannot Handleships as large.
Besides the three largest cities on Erra, there are countless small settlements,
or small
towns, scattered all over the planet.
But Erra citizens also have a strong tendency to live alone, with their houses
sometimes
dozens of kilometers away from their nearest neighbors.
They like to live isolated inside high technology houses which are largely built
with wood,
at least on the exterior, and this is a testimony to anterian influence over
Taygeta.
Logically, there are all kinds and styles of houses on Erra, and many are simply
high
technology structures built with interstellar age materials, which are the most
efficient
to withstand the harsh air and winters.
There are few roads connecting those isolated houses and small towns all over
the planet,
but they are scarce because the population of Erra prefers to do everything by
air,
being that Erra has the highest ratio of private starships per citizen, with an
average
of five.
Even with this high concentration of airborne crafts, the population still uses
wheeled vehicles,
especially during the hot seasons of the planet.
The amount of wildlife on Erra is staggering, but unlike on Earth among other
planets,
the relationship between the species is based on symbiosis and cooperation, and
not so
much on exploitation.
This makes Erra a very friendly planet as there are few predators, although
large cats
and wolves do exist in the wild, so if you are something like a fluffy bunny,
you are
still in trouble if you live there.
As the prevalent natural system is symbiosis, plants do not hesitate to make
themselves
seen to the countless insects who serve them, and to other plants.
During the hot nights of Erra's spring and summer, the entire forest lights up
with
an amazing and sheer flabbergasting light show, as the countless insects,
plants, and even
some of the trees light up the night with photoluminous.
Those forest nights are boiling with wildlife activity, and the sounds and
noises there
are simply wonderful, even more so as the predators are few and far apart, but I
insist
they do exist.
Many species of plants and animals are the same as the ones found on Earth, as
species
are multi-planetary.
Some of the most dominant ones are common to many planets and their solar
systems.
As they did not evolve there or anywhere else, rather they were seeded wherever
they could
flourish.
Who seeded them?
You may ask, and although it is known that countless interstellar star races
keep on seeding
planets, importing and exporting plant and animal species up to this day, it is
not known
who seeded most of the species found on planets, as that information is lost in
the vastness
of time, and how it is perceived in space in a non-linear way.
The process of seeding a planet with any species, plant or animal is very
controversial and
even dangerous, as one wrong species can destroy an entire ecosystem.
An example of this is the moye birds found on planet Temmer, which are tropical
animals
and highly gregarious.
They do tend to be invasive and destroy crops and fruit plantations, and can be
a nuisance,
even though they do not fly.
It would be very dangerous to introduce moye's into Erra from Temmer, as they
would invade
and destroy its delicate symbiotic ecosystems, so it is highly prohibited to
transport even
one single of those birds from Temmer to Erra.
Although planet Erra also known how to defend itself from this kind of unwanted
animals, as
moye's, being tropical birds would not survive an Erra winter, and that would be
the end
of their invasion.
In the end, each species is highly adapted to its planet and its seasons.
Even so, many insects, plants and small animals are short-lived as they are born
in spring,
and die in winter, as the temperatures drop.
Most evolved animals, such as mammals, tend to burrow underground and in the
countless
caves which are found all over Erras volcanic mountains, where they hibernate
until spring
spring.
Winters on Erra are famous for their harshness, but they also have something
even worse,
as they tend not to be as markedly progressive as on Earth, where temperatures
start to
drop slowly as the year gets older and fall arrives.
On certain parts of Erra above the equator, full winter may arrive within a
couple of hours,
where people, animals and plants may be enjoying a beautiful, warm, sunny day,
and suddenly
a wall of whiteness may start to advance towards them.
You can see a super dense, low cloud coming down from the mountains towards you
at a fast
pace, and when it arrives, temperatures may suddenly drop as much as 50 degrees
Celsius
in a matter of a few minutes.
Winter arrives very violently with a storm of snow and ice, and with it, death
arrives
for countless animals, insects and plants.
Winter arrives progressively in a matter of some three or four days in the
equatorial zones
of Erra, but up north or south, it arrives in minutes.
The population of Erra knows the dangers they are exposed to while living in
certain areas
of the planet, and many people have died when they were caught off guard, even
inside
advanced vehicles.
Because this kind of winter supercell can cause small starships to crash or to
become stranded
if inside a garage, or if left exposed.
Only the best private small starships can escape by entering hyperspace while
still on the
surface of the planet, but not all Taygetan aerial vehicles can.
This explains why errans depend on their starships so much, as they are their
very lifelines.
Anyhow, Erra is a beautiful, soft planet full of life, but with a bad temper,
because
storms are also common all over the planet even during the warm periods of its
year.
It rains a lot on Erra when not in winter.
Sometimes it looks like it's raining all the time, as it can rain continuously
for several
days, non-stop.
But there are many warm, beautiful, sunny days as well.
Erra is full of beauty, with breathtaking landscapes and a very large and
complex
range of ecosystems.
Even with its super harsh winters, Erra is always boiling with life of all
kinds, and
many of its species are completely unknown to Earth.
For example, there are some plants which are shaped like a ball, and like to
dwell in
highly humid places, mostly near swamps.
They live in large concentrations of them, and are about a meter tall, or in
diameter.
These plants, if they feel threatened, uproot themselves and literally run away,
crashing
and slamming clumsily onto each other, and onto other plants, trees, and objects
as
they do so, in a very hilarious manner.
They can be very fast, yet they don't run away very far, but I guess enough to
frighten
away any threat, all this as a survival mechanism.
They are plants and they do not have eyes.
But they do have some kind of extra sensory perception that guides them somehow,
at least
limitedly.
Erra's summer nights are extremely beautiful, not only because of the
photoluminous
feast of insects and plants all over the place.
But when it is cloudless, also because of the soft blue light coming from the
Pleiadian
blue nebula that envelops much of M45 solar systems, and when it is seen.
Also because of the soft pale blue light coming from Taygeta's binary dwarf
star, Sadicleya,
or town 19B, which acts like the moon does for Earth.
All this adds to cause a unique effect on wildlife, which makes the entire
forest light up in
a light and noise show, as if the plants, insects, birds, and animals were in a
huge party.
Erra is a beautiful but temperamental planet, which causes most inhabitants to
flee to
planet Temmer during Erra's winter, as Temmer is always warm and most definitely
is a super
inhabitable planet.
This will be all for today.
As always, thank you for watching my video, and for liking, sharing, and
subscribing for
more. It helps this channel grow a lot.
And I hope to see you here next time.
With much love and appreciation, your friend.
Mari.
