System Data

The worlds of the system have been surveyed. They consist of:

• The mainworld.
• x11 secondary rocky worlds.
• x2 planetoid belts.
• x4 gas giants.

Mainworld Data

Bushask is a satellite of a gas giant.

The mainworld and its gas giant primary orbit within the star's Habitable Zone.

• They lie within the zone's colder outer H- region.
• They receive lower levels of stellar energy.

• They orbit beyond the star's Jump Shadow.

Mainworld Size (S)

Bushask is a Meso World between 7,200km and 8,800km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 0.4G and 0.57G. The horizon will appear about 4km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)

Bushask has a pressure of 0.43 to 0.70 atmospheres. The Thin Atmosphere does not require survival gear although it may be hard on sophonts not accustomed to it.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)

Bushask has 35-45% of its surface covered by liquid water. There will be a number of small seas or one larger body of water. Wilderness refueling is possible.

• The world experiences low temperatures.
• Much of the surface is covered in glaciers, ice, frost, and snow.
• The world's seas are warmed by geothermal heat, generated by tidal forces exerted by the gas giant.
• The land surface of the world is cold, arid, and barren.

Mainworld Geography and Topography

No centrally held map of the world exists within AAB Library Data records.

• Locally, detailed maps may be available.
• Verified updated charts are constantly sought.
• Detailed survey data commands premium prices.

(Placeholder chart, predominantly dry world.)

Native Lifeforms

Abundant, diverse aquatic native life filling every available ecological niche. Its metabolic functions drive the process of atmospheric renewal.

• There are few land organisms.
