System Data

Fonteyn System

The primary is Fonteyn, an orange subdwarf star. It has a luminosity of 4.67 Sols, a mass of 2.3 Sols, and a diameter of 4.59 million km. The inner system consists of (I) a sparse stony planetoid belt. Orbital positions (II) through (V) are unavailable due to the presence of the companion brown dwarf. (VI) a vacuum worldlet, (VII) an exotic atmosphere stormworld, (VIII) a trace atmosphere iceworld, and (IX) a dense atmosphere bigworld form the outer system.

Chimbur Subsystem

The far companion is Chimbur, a magenta-coloured L-type brown dwarf that orbits Fonteyn at approximately 0.8 AU (orbital position (III), 119.7 million km) from Fonteyn and has an orbital period of 172 days 8 hours. It is not luminous, it has a mass of 0.062 Sols and a diameter of 60,000 km. It retains (I) a vacuum worldlet. The Chimbur Subsystem lies within Fonteyn's inner system.

Samaska-Margot Subsystem

The far companion is Samaska, an ordinary red main sequence star lying approximately 1300 AU from Fonteyn. It has a luminosity of 0.0334 Sols, a mass of 0.4574 Sols, and a diameter of 711,000 km. (I) Margot orbits within the habitable zone and is designated the mainworld. (II) a very thin atmosphere hospitable world, (III) an exotic atmosphere stormworld, and (IV) a dense atmosphere stormworld form the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.

Mainworld Data

(I) Margot

(I) Margot is designated the mainworld. It orbits Samaska at a mean distance of 0.21 AU (31.4 million km), within the habitable zone. It has an orbital period of 51 days 23 hours: it is tidally locked to Samaska. The axial tilt is 7 degrees. Margot has a diameter of 6,627 km, a density of 5.18 g/cm³, and a surface gravity of 0.49 G. Tidal forces flex the world and cause frequent geological activity. Its atmosphere is rated as Standard, Tainted, with a mean surface pressure of 1.08 bar and a composition of 79% nitrogen, 20% oxygen, and 1% argon, water vapour, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, neon and other trace gases. The atmospheric taint is caused by gases of volcanic origin. Approximately 54% of the surface is covered in oceans of liquid water: average tidal ranges exceed 0.6m. Mean surface temperature: 23°C. The atmosphere is dynamic and strong weather systems driven by the star and the oceans sweep across the globe. The climate is static.

Mainworld geography and topography

Total surface area: 138 million km², Water surface area: 75 million km², Land surface area: 63 million km².

Native lifeforms

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

History & Background (Dossier)

No information yet available.

World starport

Margot 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

Margot possesses a Technology Level of TL–5.

World government

Margot is governed by a Representative Democracy where government leadership is representatives elected by eligible voters. What determines an eligible voter varies. The representatives determine policy, including selecting members of the bureaucracy. There can be referendum, votes by eligible voters on specific subjects.
