Planet Vinci

Vinci is a technologically advanced planet a month flight from Earth. The species that inhabit the planet resemble humans but are incredibly intelligent as a standard, and the planet is described as "one big university". It's dumbest citizen, Leonardo da Vinci, visited Earth in the 15th and 16th century when he no longer could stand being mocked for his stupidity. There he was considered a genius, and he largely inspired Earth's technology and art for millenia to come.



Trivia

 * The species of Vinci resemble humans, but apparantly live of very old age. In 3010 da Vinci still looks the same as 1500 years earlier, and even then he looked fairly old.
 * Except for their interest in science and technology, the citizens also appreciate Italian arts, including opera which is highly integrated in their school system.
 * One month's spaceflight from Earth in Da Vinci's Spacecraft.
