Ampelos is one of the ten lesser moons of Thalassa and is notable for being the only celestial body aside from Micras and its moon, Tarsica known to sustain life[1]. Its unique environment and characteristics have made it a subject of great interest to scientists and explorers alike. The moon features diverse regions, each with its own distinct environmental conditions and life forms.
North Polar Regions
The Northern Polar Region of Ampelos is characterized by its frigid temperatures and expansive ice fields. The surface is mostly covered in ice, with occasional rocky outcrops. This region is believed to support unique thermophilic bacteria that thrive in the cold, contributing to nutrient cycles and providing a foundation for the local ecosystem.
Equatorial Regions
The Equatorial Region of Ampelos is relatively milder compared to the polar regions. It is here that lichen-like organisms are believed to thrive, clinging to rocky and icy surfaces. These organisms are likely capable of photosynthesis and form the base of the food chain. The region's climate allows for a more diverse range of life forms, including simple multicellular organisms. The equatorial zone's stability makes it an ideal location for scientific research and exploration.
Southern Polar Regions
The Southern Polar Region is similar to the Northern Polar Region but likely features more subsurface aquatic life. Beneath the surface ice, liquid water exists, capable of supporting a variety of aquatic organisms. These life forms have intricate body structures adapted to the cold and dark environment. The underwater habitats are believed to be vibrant and teeming with life, making the Southern Polar Region a fascinating area for study.
Life on Ampelos
Ampelos is the only known moon or planet aside from Micras and Tarsica to sustain life. Its ecosystem is believed to be composed of various extremophiles, microorganisms, and more complex life forms that have likely adapted to the harsh conditions. It is suspected that these life forms include thermophilic bacteria, lichen-like organisms, and subsurface aquatic life.
