**Topas** is a dry, almost airless world that is geologically active. There are even signs of massive geological activity about ten million years ago which resurfaced a region over a 1,000km across. The atmosphere is too thin to breathe and filled with radioactive dust (though, at least in the low lands, a pressure suit is not needed), and the general surface radiation level is around 30mSv/ | **Topas** is a dry, almost airless world that is geologically active.
