Quator

Quator is a provisional label for one of four planetary emblems associated with the visiting Geometers in orbit around Arbre. The same planet image is visible on their large craft and on the set of sample vials distributed by their probe, where it serves to distinguish one contingent from the others.

Description and Imagery

The Quator emblem depicts a world with most of its landmasses concentrated at low latitudes. The name is a convenience derived from this geography; it is not presented as an official endonym.

Affiliations and Usage

Status and Uncertainty

The label “Quator” refers to the depicted planet as an emblem. It has not been confirmed whether this is the actual homeworld of that contingent, only that the imagery is used to represent them. The designation may evolve as more information is learned.

An informal name for a planet icon used to identify one of the four Geometer contingents. The image depicts a world whose landmasses lie mostly at low latitudes and appears on the visitors’ craft and on a corresponding sample vial.
