Pandora

Pandora is the planet on which Borderlands takes place. It is a barren, desolate world filled with dangerous creatures. Pandora has a 60-hour day and takes ten earth years to orbit its sun. Pandora was first settled by humans during its winter season, when much of its wildlife was hibernating. After seven earth years, however, its climate is heating up as the summer season draws near. This has resulted in the native wildlife waking from their hibernations, most of which are hostile to Pandora's new human visitors.
