At its orbital distance, one of the only ways that Xahea could maintain habitable temperatures is if it had lots of clouds to reflect away most of the incoming starlight\\u2014and, indeed, Xahea was depicted as a very cloudy place!\\n\\nScreencap of Xahea\'s planetary characteristics (special thanks to TrekCore!): https://twitter.com/TrekCore/status/1117083606122414080\\n\\nFollow Mike on Twitter: @Miquai'
