Wolf is a rich, pre-agricultural world with a moderate population over a hundred million, but not yet at a billion sophonts in size.

  • The world's agricultural industry is growing and some economists forecast an explosion in this world's agribusiness in the near future as new agro-technology and a more capable labor force are imported.
  • This is a rich world with a prosperous and thriving world economy.
  • This world has high-grade living conditions with a good climate and a non-harmful environment. As such, this world is much sought after with large queues for immigration here.
  • This is a "high technology" world with technology achievements at, near, or over technology standards for Charted Space.
  • It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Paradise Subsector of Halcyon Sector.
  • This world-system hosts a Military Base, usually associated with military ground forces, which may be located on or off-world.

System Data

Kurghan-Wolf System

The primary is Kurghan, an ordinary orange main sequence star. It has a luminosity of 0.352 Sols, a mass of 0.774 Sols, and a diameter of 1.168 million km. The inner system consists of (I) a vacuum worldlet, and (II) a very thin atmosphere radworld. (III) Wolf orbits within the habitable zone and is designated the mainworld. (IV) a thin atmosphere hospitable world, (V) a dense rocky planetoid belt, (VI) a large gas giant, (VII) a small gas giant, (VIII) a small ice giant, (IX) a vacuum iceworld, and (X) an exotic atmosphere bigworld form the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.

Mainworld Data

(III) Wolf

(III) Wolf is designated the mainworld. It orbits Kurghan at a mean distance of 0.66 AU (98.7 million km), within the habitable zone. It has an orbital period of 222 days 15 hours and a rotation period of 17.5 hours. The axial tilt is 15 degrees. Wolf has a diameter of 8,655 km, a density of 5.72 g/cm³, and a surface gravity of 0.71 G. The world is geologically active. Its atmosphere is rated as Standard, with a mean surface pressure of 0.88 bar and a composition of 77% nitrogen, 22% oxygen, and 1% argon, water vapour, carbon dioxide, neon and other trace gases. Approximately 43% of the surface is covered in seas of liquid water: average tidal ranges exceed 0.4m. Mean surface temperature: 22°C. The atmosphere is active and strong weather systems driven by the star and the seas sweep across the globe. The climate is seasonal.

Satellite

Wolf retains a single natural satellite, a cratered vacuum worldlet named Jackal:

(IIIa) Jackal (UWP Y100000-0, orbiting at 20 Diameters/173,000 km)

Mainworld geography and topography

Total surface area: 235 million km², Land surface area: 134 million km², Water surface area: 101 million km².

Native lifeforms
