Freya

Freya, the second planet orbiting I'riuu, is named for the Norse goddess of love, who some say Friday was named for. Formerly, Freya was covered with clouds, but a terraforming effort started in 52 AUC, slowly converting the atmosphere to a more breathable oxygen-nitrogen mix, and reducing the cloud cover to allow the heat to escape. The planet is still quite volcanically active, with most surface features of igneous origin. Around 300 million people live on Freya.
