Vamshi is a binary system. Vamshi-A is a main-sequence white dwarf of spectral class A4 V 1 whose surface temperature is over 8667 K, giving it mass 2.1 and radius 1.7 sols (a bit more than A5 Beta Pictoris). Vamshi-B is an aging red giant of class M5 III 1 (temperature under 3500 K), over 220 times the diameter (and radius) of Sol: so, a radius on the order of 1 AU.

Maji:

  • 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

Maji orbits the Vamshi binary giant stars. Vamshi-A is a blue star of spectral class A4III which burns at half again the temperature of Sol. Vamshi-B is an aging red giant of class M5III, over 220 times the size of Sol.

Maji has a thin atmosphere of methane and carbon monoxide. The difference in temperature between the hemisphere facing the suns and that facing deep space causes constant wind, stirring the silica and sodium dust of the surface.

Unsavory characters from the Terminus Systems occasionally use Maji for forms of cruel sport, dumping slaves, hostages, quarreling shipmates, or even (when bored) vicious animals on the surface. One must kill the other before they will be rescued from the lethal radiation of the giant stars.
