  Thrycion is the first planet discovered to contain sentient life (beyond Earth). Christopher Korbach was the first human to travel there. He reached Thrycion by traveling through a portal in a Mount Gibbes in North Carolina, rather than through space travel. Thrycion’s distance from Earth is unknown. Attempts to find Thrycion astronomically from Earth have failed to date. Attempts to find Earth astronomicallyfrom Thrycion have also failed.

  There is significant debate in the scientific community over whether Thrycion is located in the same universe as Earth. Three years of astronomical study from both Thrycion and Earth have not been able to link any constellations or galaxies in the skies of either planet.This situation has lead to a rise in the number of scientists who purport that Thrycion is in another universe. A shrinking majority of scientists reject this proposition, stating that the atmospheric, geological and chemical similarities between Thrycion and Earth makes the possibility of these two planets not residing in the same universe statistically impossible.
