Gemenon, known as "The First Colony" is a planet in the Cyrannus Star System. Its climate is known to be temperate, though more prone to extremes of temperature and climate from region to region world. Gemenon was one of the poorer colonies and was also considered the most religious, with several major centers of religious worship orbiting the star Helios Alpha. It is a close neighbor of Caprica, with which it shares an orbit as a double planet. Following the start of the Cylon War, Gemenon became one of the twelve core worlds in the United Colonies of Kobol.

History[]

Gemenon was the first planet in the system settled on by the Kobol refugee convoy. In the aftermath of their arrival, the colonists endured a technological dark age where computer information access was lost and all information became passed on written paper. As consequence, basic information such as why the colonists left was interpreted over the next two thousand years as a religious document and taught by priests.[2]

Geography[]

Gemenon is known for the Gramadas, a vast mountain range that can be seen from space.[3]
