Biology
Known as UB-04 Blaster, it is an Ultra Beast that appeared from an Ultra Wormhole. Celesteela are rocket-like life forms that expel a powerful gas stored within themselves for flight. Readings of high energy can be detected from both of its huge arms.
Witnesses say they have seen it burn down a forest by expelling gas from both its arms and flying through the sky at high speed. It might be a dangerous alien here, but it is apparently a common organism in its home world, the Ultra Crater. They create the RP-1-like rocket fuel by absorbing the nutrients of nearby plants. They are plant-like in composition.
Design & origin
Celesteela is based on The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter and the story's Princess Kaguya.
