Qo’noS is green when viewed from orbit, primarily because of an overabundance of carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, and methane in the atmosphere compared to Earth. The planet is dominated by a huge ocean with one large land mass. Hurricane-like storms grow to be almost as large as the continent itself as they travel over the far side of the planet with no land to slow their growth. These storms are exacerbated by the atmospheric turbulence caused by large temperature differences between the day and night sides of the planet. The planet has a severely-tilted axis, which increases the extremes of hot and cold temperatures between summer and winter. These seasons are particularly known for violent weather since half the planet is in one season while the other half is in the other season and the temperature difference between the two creates powerful storms. <u><i>((1, 6))</i></u> <br><br> | Qo’noS is green when viewed from orbit, primarily because of an overabundance of carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, and methane in the atmosphere compared to Earth.

Qo’nos also suffers from tectonic instability, which leads to the violent earthquakes and powerful volcanoes that have shaped the landscape. The terrain of Qo’nos includes tall mountains, jagged cliffs, and rivers of molten lava. <u><i>((1))</i></u> <br><br> | Qo’nos also suffers from tectonic instability, which leads to the violent earthquakes and powerful volcanoes that have shaped the landscape.
