Isa Kio Kio

Tsar Cupra 1b4, also known as Isa Kio Kio is the fourth satellite of Planet Smogg and a state of the former Kingdom of Smogg. It is a large terrestrial satellite with a diameter of 6,000 miles. Isa Kio Kio was used for genetic testing and species recovery until being overrun with Earth dinosaurs and abandoned.

Name
The name "Isa Kio Kio" comes from the Rigelian "Ismwac Kiokio" (little home).

Scientific outpost
Due to the thick tropical atmosphere of Isa Kio Kio, protected by its host planet's magnetic field, the western half was designated a scientific research outpost to test the feasibility of introducing flora and fauna to Smogg from other planets, including resurrected extinct species. After some initial success with the plants, the scientists ramped up animal production, releasing them onto islands and into the ocean. The breeding centers on the mainland suffered from constant escapes, including 4 mass-escapes facilitated by resurrected Homo erectus' and Ulra's scyphers. After the larger predators migrated and massacred the colonized eastern hemisphere, the satellite was abandoned and all its Smogga scientists and citizens shipped back to Smogg.
