Androzani Minor
|
Androzani Minor is the twin planet of Androzani Major. Androzani Minor is a barren world, with no vegetation or water, but plenty of sand dunes. The fifth Doctor, when he and Peri visited Androzani Minor, commented that Peri was a little late to go swimming as a billion years had passed since there had been any water.
Mud burst On the surface there appears to be many cave entrances, but closer examination shows them to be blowholes. The centre of Androzani Minor contains superheated mud. When Androzani Minor passes close to Androzani Major the gravitational forces causes massive mud bursts. Anyone caught in a mud burst will be seriously injured, maybe even killed.
The main resource of Androzani Minor is spectrox. A refinery will take raw spectrox and the result is an life extending drug that is in high demand. Underground in Androzani Minor there are a network of cave passages which are used by both the military and gun runners, as well as being a route for mud bursts.
