Bosavay Solar-system

System Specs:

  • Stellar Mass:  _ Sol-masses
  • Stellar Class:  _
  • Luminosity:  _ Sol
  • Planets:  4

Bosavay is a particularly energetic star. Upon arrival, Tempest helmsman Kallo Jath deploys radiation and emission screens to keep the ship’s sensors safe.

Element Zero ordinarily forms in the aftermath of a supernova. This pocket appears to be naturally occurring, but the circumstances are wrong: could the Scourge be a factor?

Pas-60:

  • Orbital Distance:  35.1 AU
  • Orbital Period:  49.2 Earth-years
  • Keplerian Ratio:  17.865
  • Radius:  10,738 km
  • Day Length:  0.10 Earth-hours
  • Atmospheric Pressure:  _ atm
  • Surface Temp:  1,073 °C
  • Surface Gravity:  _ g
  • Mass:  _ Earth-masses

The seething radiation of the Bosavay sun keeps portions of Pas-60 molten at all times. Attempting to land here would be extremely inadvisable.

Ishang:

  • Orbital Distance:  57.2 AU
  • Orbital Period:  102.5 Earth-years
  • Keplerian Ratio:  17.813
  • Radius:  2,373 km
  • Day Length:  _ Earth-hours
  • Atmospheric Pressure:  0.05 atm
  • Surface Temp:  810 °C
  • Surface Gravity:  _ g
  • Mass:  _ Earth-masses

Auroral flashes are visible at most times of day from the cobalt surface of Ishang. The electromagnetic effects may interfere with communications.

Tyfrondra:

  • Orbital Distance:  134.6 AU
  • Orbital Period:  369.6 Earth-years
  • Keplerian Ratio:  17.851
  • Radius:  39,120 km
  • Day Length:  _ Earth-hours
  • Atmospheric Pressure:  1.80 atm
  • Surface Temp:  _ °C
  • Surface Gravity:  _ g
  • Mass:  _ Earth-masses

Tyfrondra’s weather is uncommonly tranquil for a gas giant — its clouds and electrical storms move in slow, predictable patterns worthy of further study.

Pas-51:

  • Orbital Distance:  _ 76.4 AU
  • Orbital Period:  _ 158.0 Earth-years
  • Keplerian Ratio:  _ 17.863
  • Radius:  _ 6,959 km
  • Day Length:  _ 158.0 Earth-hours
  • Atmospheric Pressure:  _ 0.44 atm
  • Surface Temp:  _ 1,157 °C
  • Surface Gravity:  _ 0.66 g
  • Mass:  _ 0.78 Earth-masses

Many of the conditions on Pas-51 are amenable to the development of life (microbial at least), but its searing temperatures are an obstacle not easily overcome.

Mountain:

DATA:

  • Height: 8.8 km
  • Origin: Tectonic

ANALYSIS:

Water vapor escapes from cracks in this mountain, suggesting that somewhere deep underground – where temperatures are far cooler – a reservoir may exist. If lifeforms exist on Pas-51, they will be there.
