#CloudRocket #Brontos Besides its spectacular propulsion system, the Cloud Rocket has a number of remarkable adaptations for its extreme lifestyle. Though thirty feet long and seven feet in diameter at its broadest point, it would way less than a quarter ton in Earth's gravity. This is due partly to its extremely light, yet strong, skeletal structure, as well as the fact that a great deal of its volume is taken up by gaseous fuel molecules. Its head is broad and flat to streer upwards and downwards, and two vertical fins enable it to steer from side to side. Because the Cloud Rocket feeds while moving at over two hundred miles per hour, it has an extremely fast reaction time, able to open and shut its mouth in less than the blink of an eye to snap up a morsel without affecting its aerodynamics. The back of the creature's mouth cavity is padded and reinforced to withstand the impact of prey entering the mouth at over two hundred miles per hour. The Cloud Rocket is the top predator on Brontos. No known creature preys upon it. The only known killer of Cloud Rockets is lightning, which can disrupt and ignite the fuel within its body. For this reason, Cloud Rockets, like sharks, have a highly-tuned electrical sense, to avoid lightning.

#CloudRocket #Brontos Planet eE-3441, commonly known as Brontos, is a gas giant roughly the size of Saturn, with an atmospheric composition that, remarkably, supports a wide variety of organisms. While the vast majority of these creatures are floating and drifting "air plankton," a number of species with quite advanced means of movement have evolved. Chief among these is the Cloud Rocket, a marvel of evolutionary engineering. It is the only known organism of its size to possess a chemical propulsion system. Several miles below the sunny layer where life is abundant, there is a perpetually cloudy layer, filled with complex molecules which the Cloud Rocket "inhales" into a multi-chambered fuel cavity that takes up sixty percent of its volume. The molecules are filtered through the various chambers and undergo a series of chemical reactions. Scientists know little of this, for their only specimens were badly damaged and poorly preserved, but the end result is obvious: ignition and propulsion. The Cloud Rocket then rides this chemical fire up to higher, life-rich layers of the atmosphere, where it feeds. The life of a Cloud Rocket is an ever-swinging pendulum of gravity-assisted dives into deeper atmospheric strata to collect fuel, followed by speedy ascensions into upper layers to feed. It never rests.
