Benner System

The primary is Benner, an ordinary white main sequence star. It has a luminosity of 11.26 Sols, a mass of 1.86 Sols, and a diameter of 2.421 million km. The inner system consists of (II) a hot small gas giant, and (V) an exotic atmosphere bigworld – orbital positions (I), (III) and (IV) are empty. (VI) a corrosive atmosphere inferno world orbits within the habitable zone. (VII) a ringed large gas giant, and (VIII) a small ice giant form the outer system. The outer worlds retain satellites.

Orgon-Cephet Subsystem

The companion is Orgon, a yellow subdwarf star lying approximately 2200 AU from Benner. It has a luminosity of 0.213 Sols, a mass of 0.542 Sols, and a diameter of 896,000 km. The inner system consists of (I) a corrosive atmosphere inferno world. (II) Cephet orbits within the habitable zone and is designated the mainworld. (III) an exotic atmosphere bigworld, and (IV) a small gas giant form the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.

World starport

Cephet has a Class D Starport, a poor quality installation which has few of the expected amenities. There is unrefined fuel for starships and a limited variety of ship provisions. There is no shipyard of any kind, but there may be parts and technical support for doing minor services and repair. Ports of this classification generally consist of only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.

World technology level

Cephet possesses a Technology Level of TL–9.

  • Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Fiber optics and satellite communication and data networks.
  • Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Early fusion power.
  • Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
    • Land: Ultra high-speed trains and early grav vehicles.
    • Water: High efficiency sailcraft, multihulled seacraft, improved artificial gills.
    • Air: Tiltrotorcraft, exotic VTOL's, PARWIG, and rocket-assisted suborbitals.
    • Space: SSTO spacecraft, early military spacecraft (System Craft), and interstellar STL starships
    • FTL: Prototype Jump Drive-1.

World government

Cephet has no central government for the world, an Anarchy. The largest governmental structure would be a family, tribe, or single clan. The largest group will be between 50 and 100 individuals, and there may be dozens to hundreds of them. This governmental structure can be stable over long periods of time if the population remains small or geographically separated.
