Aquas is one of two oceanic worlds of the Lylat System, the other being Zoness. Unlike Zoness however, Aquas is completely covered by ocean. The site of an ancient civilization, the planet became an unexpected battlefield during the Lylat Wars.
[edit] Overview
The entire surface of Aquas is covered with water, and abounds with a diverse range of aquatic life. Though generally harmless, some of Aquas' aquatic lifeforms can be extremely deadly even to modern submersible vehicles. Ruins similar to those found on Titania point towards an ancient civilization that no longer exists, tangibly similar to the Anglers.
For some unexplained reason, in the Slippy's Resolve ending, Slippy seemed to be living on an island with his kids and grandkids, even though Star Fox 64 implied that there were no islands on Aquas after Baccoon shattered the polar ice caps and flooded the entire planet.
