# Planet Aging & NFT Generation
* Aging your planet is very important as it unlocks **Relic Slots**.
* 1 day = 1 planet year. Aging starts from the date planets are minted/born.
* Apostles are also relics and will take up slots. Other relics include equipment, skill cards, cosmetics and rare Planetary Wonders. These can be lost upon reset unless you mint them into NFTs during Armageddon. (Minted NFTs can be sold on the Marketplace)
* For the planet to reach Adult you'll need it to reach 1000 days in age... or almost 3 years. The way to bypass that long and arduous stage you'll need to do so through a process called **Chronomerging**.
## Chronomerging:
To put it simply, it's like feeding your main planet with a sacrificial planet to increase its age.
* **Base Planet** Age + **Sacrificial Planet** Age = **New Planet** Age
* Sacrificial planet will be **burned** into the abyss including progression
* *Chronomerging costs and calculations are not yet available.*
## Abiogenesis:
Planet cores will generate their unique cosmetic properties for the Avatar up to a total of 840 combinations.

## NFT Generation:
Your planet will also spawn other items besides avatar cosmetics. Known items are: **Apostles**, **Skill** **Cards**, **Equipment** and **Wonder Relics**. Will update once more info is available.
