 April 6, 2012 - 6:32pm | I'm no astronomer so I but Terl Obar a lot and when he's not available I go to dire press tools and hit the random system generator till it gives me values I'm looking for then I copy the information. I was looking for stats on a K2 star to match the Athor system and camp up with a stat for a K2 star: Luminosity: 1.20 x 1026 W (0.31 x sol) Athor is a Yazirian colony and that low luminosity jumped out at me as we all know yazirians have an issue with bright sunlight. Would this luminosity be low enough for yazirians to fore go sungoggles while on Yast? Dennis Maggard's Cthulhu Hymnal- lymerick "Necronomicon" The Necronomicon? You can't be shown one!

April 6, 2012 - 8:31pm | I figured that but thought I should ask the question publicly in case I had missed something. Wonder which stars in the Frontier require yazirians to wear sun goggles?
