The atmosphere is quite warm.<ref>'''Halo Encyclopedia''', ''page 309''</ref> Its atmospheric composition is similar to that of [[Earth]], yet inhospitable to [[human]]s. Palamok itself is quite earthlike although significantly larger and tending to tropical extremes. It is a flat and geologically featureless world with little tectonic or volcanic activity. Palamok has average surface temperatures of 29°C to 42°C (84.2°F to 107.6°F), and has a gravity twice that of Earth. This would present a challenge on the evolution of the wings of the Yanme'e, but it gives them excellent flight skills in the gravity of Earth and caused the development of their hard carapaces.<ref name="best"/> Palamok was home to dense jungles that covered a large part of the planet's surface. The jungle canopies were often home to Yanme'e hives.<ref name="waypointarticle"/> | ||
