Svalinn

Some Rocket Dogs thrive in the warm breezes of Exosol or Helios Retreat while others prefer the icy blasts of Polar Paradise and Astro Gulch. But what to do if your cold loving Rocket Dog is racing on a hot moon? This was becoming an issue with the long-haired breeds and their Commanders knew an answer had to be found. Creative Climate Engineers, one of the largest environmental control companies on Quantum Prime was consulted for a solution.

Cooling isn’t the problem. However, weight, energy, and size is. A rare isotope, svalinn was tested for reactive cooling based on relative ambient temperature. Only a slight amount of positive current is required to drop the core temperature of svalinn to below freezing. Using this data, the design team at Creative Climate Engineers created a prototype blanket to test with Rocket Dogs. The blanket worked better than expected with the cold loving dogs preferring to just lay on top of the device. The next hurdle was figuring out how to get the dogs off the blanket to run a race. The design team again worked directly with the Commanders to fashion a shield which would float on an electro-gravitational field directly in front of the dog. The Svalinn shield freezes the apparent wind which in turn envelops the Rocket Dog with ice cold air. Finally, the cold natured Rocket Dogs feel at home on the warmest moons in the Aluza System.
