Ilion: A View from Space

The planet Ilion is the focus of a speculative biology project of mine and some experiments in fiction writing, which you can read over here ([link]). The planet is tidally locked to a red dwarf star.

First off, thanks to all on Speculative Evolution [link] who gave input and feedback on things like atmosphere color and weather systems. It's not too late to make changes, so if anything stands out as off, feel free to speak up.
