Perseus Arm is the 28th Interstellar Object and the 2nd Milky Way Galaxy obtained in the Beyond (Rank 25), which can generate Stardust 
.
Description[]
"Named for the constellation it appears in from Earth, Perseus is one of two major arms that spiral out from the galactic core. This may surprise you: spiral arms and stars don’t travel in sync. Stars speed into an arm, get jammed up there for a time, and then move out."
Traits[]
The rare traits matching this generators type are: Milky Way . Perseus Arm is also affected by the epic traits: Cosmology , Dark Matter , Dark Energy . It is also affected by the constellations: Eridanus,Hercules, as well as by the generator rank.
| Icon | Name | Description | Requires |

Centaurus Arm | The second major arm, which goes by many names, originates in a warm hydrogen cloud at the core and carves a long arc to the frigid rim. As speedy stars near the core overtake slower ones, bottlenecks form. Think of a spiral arm as a very long traffic jam. | Generator Unlocked |
|
Density Waves | Spiral arms are density waves, similar to ripples on a pond or sonic booms. They persist for billions of years because differences in orbital velocity constantly create bottlenecks. Like cars in a traffic jam, stars must inch through a density wave before they can exit. | Centaurus Arm |
Astronomy Mission[]
Perseus Arm's Astronomy Mission is Galactic Bar.
"Gas and dust near the core orbits faster than matter that's further away. Over time, this discord causes a central bar made of density waves to form. The Milky Way's bar is 30,000 light years long, with one end pointing at Earth."

Near and Far 3KPC Arms[]
You unlock this after getting 50 Perseus Arms
"The Near and Far 3kpc (kiloparsec) Arms are parallel bands near the galactic bar."
Achievements[]
| Icon | Name | Description | Requires |
|---|---|---|---|
|
Star Populations | Spiral arms feature Population I stars, which were born recently and are laced with heavy elements from the remains of dead stars. The galactic core has mostly Population II stars, which formed when the universe was young. They’re almost 100% hydrogen and helium. | Perseus Arm Rank 3 |
|
Gas Filaments | Long threads of gas weave through the spiral arms, their various patterns evoking names like the Bones, the Split, and the Radcliffe Wave. New stars form from pockets of compressed gas and, like strings of party lights, decorate the filaments. | Perseus Arm Rank 6 |
