The planet Meteo sending off its destructive hordes of Meteos.
The Meteos are phantasmagoric meteorites used as a weapon initially by Meteo, their creator, but later utilized by the other planets in the local group to fight back against it. They are elemental, which leads to a unique property: when three or more Meteos of the same element are aligned, they ignite, turning into Burnt Meteos, and reverse direction, flying away from their target planet and taking Meteos above them with them. If enough Meteos crash onto a planet and are not launched away, they will cause the planet to be destroyed.

Functions[]
The main purpose of the Meteos was to be a highly destructive weapon used by their creator, the planet Meteo. They would be created in hordes, and launched to targeted planets to overwhelm and destroy them. However, possibly due to their phantasmagoric nature, they can be used for creative purposes, most notably Fusion. In some of the Star Trip endings, they are used to recreate the planets destroyed by Meteo. They are also the main material used to construct the Metamo Ark.
