Base of Operations: Mobile, via his Worldship, throughtout the known universe Past Group Affiliations: None KNOWN POWERS Body Armor: Galactus' armor provides SHX protection from physical and energy attacks. In addition, Galactus is Invulnerable to Heat, Cold, Corrosives, Toxins, Disease, and Radiation. Energy Manipulation: Galactus has CL3000 ability to manipulate all forms of energy. He can duplicate any superhuman power or endow similar powers to others to create heralds such as the Silver Surfer and Nova. Galactus rarely uses his powers above SHY level, as they drain his cosmic energies. Telepathy: Galactus has UN Telepathy, but may only read a mind that is not being read by another. Technology: Galactus has an unbelievable aray of technological devices available to him. He has a spherical shuttle ship that may carry him between the stars, and carries equipment to allow him to eat planets without expending any of his own energies. Hunger: In order to survive, Galactus must consume the bio-energies of planets that support or have the potential to support life. After 30 days without feeding Galactus' CL3000 abilities will slip to CL1000. After 60 days, all CL1000 abilities slip to SHZ. After 90 days, they lessen to SHY, and so on. Galactus may devour a planet's energies by using specially-built devices, or by absorbing the energy directly (the latter leaves Galactus immobile for 1-10 days). The process takes 24 hours to initiate and complete. Use of his Powers at full strength reduces the time between feeding by 1 Terran day for each instance. Talents: None Contacts: Galactus is feared throughout the galaxy. He has some kind of friendly relation with both Death and Eternity, but the exact nature of this is unknown.
