The planet Kakhodor is twice as massive as Earth. Due to Kakhodor's lower density, its gravity is only 1,05 g, or 5% higher than Earth's gravity. Kakhodor has 50% land and 50% water, with the oceans being shallower and saltier than the oceans on Earth. The shallower oceans generate much less water pressure at the deepest points on the ocean floor, pressing much less water into the mantle. As a result, Kakhodor's mantle contains much less water than Earth's mantle. It is thought that the total amount of H2O on Kakhodor, the mantle included, is 1/20 that on Earth or less. However, since it is surface water that generates clouds that can rain, percipitation is almost as common on Kakhodor as it is on Earth. There are five large continents on Kakhodor, all connected by land bridges of varying
