| SYSTEM NAME: Truane's Star | STAR COLOR: Red-Orange (G7) |
HABITABLE PLANETS: Pale, New Pale
MOONS: 3 - Dan, Joe, & Sven CLIMATE RANGE: varies with elevation, seasonably cool to warm and varying climates ranging from dry to humid ATMOSPHERE: 57% nitrogen, 26% oxygen, 17% carbon dioxide GRAVITY: 0.9032 | DIAMETER: 11,175 kilometers LENGTH OF DAY: 54 hours, 53 minutes AVERAGE SURFACE TEMPERATURE: 26 degrees C |
COLONIZERS:
Humans were the primary settlers on Pale two centuries prior to the foundation of the UPF. Originally located in the far corner of the Frontier and in conjunction with a self-supporting neighbor (New Pale, see below) and aggressive mining campaigns, Pale rapidly became home to significant populations of all of the Four Races.
NATIVE LIFE:
No native animal life has been discovered on Pale beyond various flora and fauna. Much of the planet is covered with vegetation, but all of the plants would be considered "primitive" by most standards. Lichens, mosses, algae and ferns are the most common types.
PLANET DESCRIPTION: (Physical and Geographical Aspects)
Pale is a mountainous world occupying the third orbit from the sun.
PLANET DESCRIPTION: (Political and Cultural Aspects)
All of Pale is ruled by a single government.
MOONS: none CLIMATE RANGE: Warm temperatures and humid throughout ATMOSPHERE: 55% nitrogen, 31% oxygen, 14% carbon dioxide GRAVITY: 1.3907 | DIAMETER: 15,927 kilometers LENGTH OF DAY: 20 hours, 9 minutes AVERAGE SURFACE TEMPERATURE: 24 degrees C |
COLONIZERS:
Humans were the primary settlers on New Pale shortly ater Pale was settled. Even today they are still the primary inhabitants
NATIVE LIFE:
Native animal life on New Pale consists mostly of cattle and livestock. Much of the planet is covered with vegetation, most of which can be harvested for food. The rich soil permits all forms of agricultural growth, from fruits and vegetables to grains to livestock.
PLANET DESCRIPTION: (Physical and Geographical Aspects)
New Pale is a flat world with seemingly endless rolling plains orbiting fifth from the sun.
PLANET DESCRIPTION: (Political and Cultural Aspects)
All of New Pale is ruled by a single government.
| MOONS: 5 CLIMATE RANGE: too hot for supporting life ATMOSPHERE: 55% hydrogen, 23% helium, 21% methane, 1% trace gases GRAVITY: 2.3194 | DIAMETER: 112,489 kilometers LENGTH OF DAY: 144 hours, 23 minutes AVERAGE SURFACE TEMPERATURE: 75 degrees C |
COLONIZERS:

NATIVE LIFE:
None
PLANET DESCRIPTION: (Physical and Geographical Aspects)
Cygnus Omicron is a gas giant, occupying the fifteenth outermost orbit nearly 1.5 billion kilometers from the sun.
PLANET DESCRIPTION: (Political and Cultural Aspects)
Numerous artificial satellites have been established around Cygus Omicron, each bearing a number to designate their order of construction. These satellites mostly serve as way stations to gas miners who extract the hydrogen via skimming the atmosphere with intent to sell to the refineries located within the inner orbits, although at least one has been established as a defensive point to protect the raw gas.
