The thicker air of Novaya Rodina has caused many changes as well.  Visitors have to wear ear, mouth, and nose protection to keep the pressure from doing damage.  The native Novayans on the other hand can breathe that thicker air without any technological support.  In fact, they find Earth normal air pressure to be uncomfortably thin.  Hyperventilation and feinting is common when they come on board non-Novayan starships.  Interesting times those.
