Corrected entry: One thousand years after mankind has abandoned earth, despite the abundance of lush foliage, there is a marked absence of oxygen? And if so, it appears that the indigenous wildlife has rapidly adapted to the scarcity.

Correction: It has nothing to do with what we did to Earth. They are both essentially aliens, just like the gravity is different to their home, so is the atmospheric level of various chemicals.

Corrected entry: Nova Prime's sky is full of huge planetary bodies and moons...can you imagine the tidal effects from the gravitational pull of these bodies? The planet would be uninhabitable.
Correction: Although we cannot know how old Nova Prime is as a planet, it can be assumed that it settled into its 'current' habitable state after eons of adjusting to the moons' gravity. When Jaden is running with the Rangers, we can see one very large moon and a smaller one; perhaps the large moon's gravity is enough to make the others insignificant in impacting the planet.

Correction: Will tells Jaden about the oxygen filtration discs, "allowing you to breath more comfortably in the environment". A few images of industrial pollution are shown, suggesting we poisoned the world, which must have included the air, and thus had to leave the planet. If the oxygen levels are simply lower than that which easily support humans, animals could easily have adapted in a thousand years.

They are both aliens and simply aren't adapted to the levels of oxygen on Earth.
