The surface of [Aurius-7c] is composed of electrically charged hot ice, known as ‘superionic ice’. This type of exotic matter forms at extremely high temperatures and pressures, where water simul- taneously adopts solid and fluid states. To maintain a stable internal temperature and protect its reproductive organs, Lucens borealis uses a layered structure that traps air, thus creating an effective thermal barrier.
