Description
In one of the satellites that orbits the gas giant known as Aita, a complex ecosystem has been formed despite its distance from its red dwarf star.
Thanks to tidal heating and protection offered by its host planet Celis it is an exotic alien world home to the Xenolithodes celisi. One of the first and strangest intelligences in the universe. Due to the effect of evolutionary convergence, this species has an appearance similar to a crab or terrestrial arachnid according to the observer. Its locomotion is based on the 3 pairs of appendages that are relatively thinner than it should be for its body, it seems to be due to gravity. of his world much lower than that of the earth. It has 2 tweezers that, depending on the caste to which it belongs, can be tremendously large or thin. But the most outstanding thing is the existence of highly modified appendages on the sides below its pincers, it is believed that in the past they could have been legs that for some reason were changing their function to be similar to hands consisting of 3 " digitos" but the most striking thing is the ability of these beings to make tools that are used in their colonies and activities, in the image you can see a worker specimen using its mouthparts to sharpen pieces of the vegtative beings of its ecosystem. Note the beings deceptively appreciated by palm trees in the background whose pigments allow photosynthesis to take place.
