- Please leave this page here: I'm doing some tests to see if it is possible to separate KSP and KSP2 info in several pages. Thanks! Nazalassa (talk)

In-game Description
“ | Jool's smallest moon is bursting with geothermal activity. Sulfuric compounds spew from volcanoes while deposits of sulfur dioxide ices create small spires along the surface. Pol's bright yellow appearance and low gravity, as well as the spikes, give it a "don't come near me" vibe. We're also getting radiation readings from it, so maybe Pol really doesn't want us around! | ” |
