System Data

Chirur-Brusior System

The primary is Chirur, an ordinary white main sequence star. It has a luminosity of 3.5 Sols, a mass of 1.3 Sols, and a diameter of 1.948 million km. The inner system consists of (I) a vacuum inner world, (II) a corrosive atmosphere inferno world, (III) a corrosive atmosphere inferno world, (IV) a thin atmosphere hospitable world. (V) Brusior orbits within the habitable zone and is designated the mainworld. (VI) an exotic atmosphere bigworld, (VII) a sparse stony planetoid belt, (VIII) a ringed large gas giant, and (IX) a small gas giant form the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.

Mainworld Data

(V) Brusior

(V) Brusior is designated the mainworld. It orbits Chirur at a mean distance of 1.33 AU (198.9 million km), just within the habitable zone. It has an orbital period of 1 year 126 days and a rotation period of 28 hours. The axial tilt is 37 degrees. Brusior has a diameter of 16,694 km, a density of 5.82 g/cm³, and a surface gravity of 1.38 G. The world is geologically active. Its atmosphere is rated as Standard, Tainted, with a mean surface pressure of 2.36 bar and a composition of 77% nitrogen (N2), 21% oxygen (O2), 1% argon (Ar), and 1% water vapor (H2O), carbon dioxide (CO2), ozone (O3), neon (Ne) and other trace gases. The taint is caused by trace hydrogen sulfide gas (H2S) produced as a waste product by local lifeforms. Approximately 93% of the surface is covered in oceans of liquid water: average tidal ranges exceed 0.7m. Mean surface temperature: 12°C. The climate is rated as Temperate-Cool and experiences major seasonal changes during the local year. The atmosphere is very active and powerful weather systems driven by the star and the oceans scour the globe.

Satellites

Brusior retains two natural satellites, an exotic atmosphere hospitable world named Dalikan and a vacuum worldlet named Bo:

(Va) Dalikan (UWP H5A0000-0, orbiting at 25 Diameters/420,000 km)
(Vb) Bo (UWP H301000-0, orbiting at 30 Diameters/501,000 km)

Mainworld Geography and Topography

Total surface area: 876 million km², Water surface area: 815 million km², Land surface area: 61 million km².

Native Lifeforms

Chirur-Brusior System

The hot marginally hospitable world lying in orbital position (IV) (within the H– region of the inner system) consisting of multicellular organisms and stromatolite-parallels that can be found in almost every ecological niche. Their metabolic functions drive the process of atmospheric renewal.

Brusior, the mainworld, has extensive, abundant native life, with complex organisms inhabiting every ecological niche. Their metabolic functions drive the process of atmospheric renewal.

No other world in the system is known to have native life.

History & Background (Dossier)

No information yet available.

World starport

Brusior has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which includes amenities including unrefined fuel for starships, some brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing maintenance and other kinds of repair. Ports of this classification generally have only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.

World technology level

Brusior possesses a Technology Level of TL–7.

  • Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Early video and early satellite communication networks.
  • Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Early fuel cells, solar energy, and geothermal power sources.
  • Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
    • Land: Improved automobiles, hovercraft, and bullet trains.
    • Water: Hydrofoils and early triphibians.
    • Air: Hang gliders and supersonic jets.
    • Space: Deep space probes and interplanetary spacecraft (System Craft).

World government

Brusior is governed by a Participatory Democracy where eligible voters determine laws and policy. What determines an eligible voter varies. There may be smaller councils or regional bodies to write the policies voted on. Leadership of the government and all members of the bureaucracy are determined by voting population.
