Lithios ( UPDATED )

Description
Nuclear waste is the material that nuclear fuel becomes after it is used in a reactor. It looks exactly like the fuel that was loaded into the reactor -- assemblies of metal rods enclosing stacked-up ceramic pellets. But since nuclear reactions have occurred, the contents aren’t quite the same. Before producing power, the fuel was mostly Uranium (or Thorium), oxygen, and steel. Afterwards, many Uranium atoms have split into various isotopes of almost all of the transition metals on your periodic table of the elements.

The waste, sometimes called spent fuel, is dangerously radioactive, and remains so for thousands of years. When it first comes out of the reactor, it is so toxic that if you stood within a few meters of it while it was unshielded, you would receive a lethal radioactive dose within a few seconds and would die of acute radiation sickness within a few days. Hence all the worry about it.

In practice, the spent fuel is never unshielded. It is kept underwater (water is an excellent shield) for a few years until the radiation decays to levels that can be shielded by concrete in large storage casks. The final disposal of this spent fuel is a hot topic, and is often an argument against the use of nuclear reactors. Options include deep geologic storage and recycling. The sun would consume it nicely if we could get into space, but since rockets are so unreliable, we can’t afford to risk atmospheric dispersal on lift-off.

2006 lightyears away sits a strange planet, when keplar s telescope caught a glare of this 120 000km gas planet in the distance researchers were in constant debate of what this planet was made of when data came back they were excited to find out this planet they call Lithios was made of spent fuel a highly radioactive nuclear waste like we have here on earth.
Lithios orbit is 868 days around its star putting ths planet in the cold zone, but dont kid yourself the temperature of this planet is a 1009 degrees . The Spent fuel on this planet can reuse itself making it glow there is a magma like crust formations giving it that land mass look
Hope you enjoy

Several people have commented about it, so I thought I would clarify it. The planet does NOT have atmospheric damage effects. I'm updating this planet right now and adding it in.

@ToxxyCZ not true its working fine on my world

The atmosphere doesn't do any damage to me when standing outside of my ship at all.

This is a wonderful planet...for fliers. The terrain is FAR too rough for rovers. Man does it look good though!

Damn thought the Green stuff was ice. really atmospheric planet, great addition for a tough survival game. makes sense that there isn't any ice.

>dose this Thorium on it at less

What?

does this still work and does the atmosphere damage ships as well as players?
