Jovia is an iron rich rocky planet with all the conditions for a successful terraforming.
Following a recent ice age, the planet's axial tilt of 5 deg keeps most of the water locked in the poles as ice, while the ecuator is a dry desert. All that is needed to kick start the warm meteorological phenomenons is a slight increase in the average temperature. This will increase the atmospheric water vapor content which in turn will amplify the CO2 greenhouse gas effect.
The suface iron oxide dust blown by the wind in the high atmosphere gives the reddish sky and protection from deadly UV radiation which allows vegetation to form near the seas or where ice melted.

Hello, It's a work in progress. I saved my progress and forgot to save as unlisted.Making a building that can be entered. The ideea of the mission would be to fly 5000 km from Centaurus site to the base in the southern hemisphere with a Droo, get into the building all the way to the tower and then back with the same craft without refueling. Or plan a rescue mission.
I will delete this celestial body when it I'll post the final version. -
@Neveon damn, neat work so far, I really do like the amount of effort you put in your worlds, I wish you luck on finishing the final version
