Budha - The moon's thick forest is a wonder of alien biology. The dense forest of trees tower over mobile suits, as each tree extends over 50 meters. The dense forest and range of medium mountains create a peaceful forest devoid of any fauna.


Meaning of the Name

In Hinduism, the Goddess ;;Tara]] (Sanskrit: तार) meaning star is the second of the ten Mahavidyas or "Great Wisdom Goddesses", Tantric manifestations of Mahadevi, Kali or Parvati. As the star is seen as a beautiful but perpetually self-combusting thing, so Tara is perceived at core as the absolute, unquenchable hunger that propels all life. In the Hindu epic The Ramayana, Tara is the name of Vali's queen. Vali is the monkey king who is killed by Rama, at the behest of his brother Sugriva.
