Tubus
Template:Quote Tubus are a species of alien organism found on planets and moons with thin atmospheres across the galaxy. They can be sampled with the Genetic Sampler and scanned with the Short Range Composition Scanner. They have a clonal colony range of 800m.
Description
Tubi are named after their tubular structure. They grow on plains or on flat patches between rocky terrain.[1]

Tubus Cavas
Description
A tubus species that extends pale vertical stalks composed of rigid modules. Colourful fronds frequently appear in the gaps between segments and aid with controlling gaseous exchange.
Conditions of occurrence
- Planets with thin CO₂ atmosphere
- Rocky planets
- Maximum gravity: 0.15
- Mean temperature: 160 K - 190 K
Tubus Compagibus
Description
A tubus species with narrow pale segments and fronds growing between each module. A wide crown of leaves at the peak hold spores on their undersides, to germinate across a wide area.
Conditions of occurrence
- Planets with thin CO₂ atmosphere
- Rocky planets
- Maximum gravity: 0.15
- Mean temperature: 160 K - 190 K
Tubus Conifer
Description
A tubus species formed from hollow vertical cylinders that can reach heights of six metres. Mature specimens are capped with a downturned crown that can distribute seeds on the wind across a wide area.
Conditions of occurrence
- Planets with thin CO₂ atmosphere
- Rocky planets
- Maximum gravity: 0.15
- Mean temperature: 160 K - 190 K
Tubus Rosarium
Description
This tubus species is composed of squat tubes growing into a vertical spire. The upper pods of mature specimens produce explosive seed pods on their outer skin.
Conditions of occurrence
- Planets with thin Ammonia atmosphere
- Rocky planets
- Maximum gravity: 0.15
- Mean temperature: >160 K
Tubus Sororibus
Description
This species of tubus grows a cluster of hollow stalks composed of rigid segments. Over time these become capped with a growth that flowers and produces seeds.
Conditions of occurrence
- Planets with thin CO₂ or Ammonia atmosphere
- High Metal Content planets
- Maximum gravity: 0.15
- Mean temperature: 160 K - 190 K
