cererian

Of or relating to the Roman goddess Ceres

Sprinkled with salt and Cererean grain

An untilled soil its yearly growth of grain Cererian yields

Of or relating to the dwarf planet–asteroid Ceres

Most of the ship's mass would be Cererian water; Earth would supply the crew, the ship's skin, and the engines. Ceres' surface gravity is about ¹/₃₆ Earth's gravity, and the asteroid is just close enough to the sun for it to power the machinery. Cererian water may unlock the solar system.

Brucite itself has not been observed in meteorites in the amounts implied by Ceres' spectrum, which seems to minimize the likelihood that any Cererean material has been found by meteorite hunters.

An inhabitant of the asteroid Ceres

Future, home-born Cererians will presumably become better adapted to their low gravitational environment

Alternative spelling of Cererian.
