System Data[edit]

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

Mainworld Data[edit]

Coroskor is the major component in a binary planet pair.

  • The two worlds have a similar mass.
  • The two worlds orbit a barycenter once every few days.

World Red Moons 01c-1.jpg

The mainworld and its binary companion orbit within the star's Habitable Zone.

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

Mainworld Size (S)[edit]

Coroskor is a Small World between 2,400km and 4,000km in diameter. The world has low gravity between 0.1G and 0.17G. The horizon will appear about 2.5km away.

  • Tidal stresses generated by the worlds binary companion cause frequent seismic activity.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)[edit]

Coroskor 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.

  • The world has an abiotic oxygen atmosphere.
  • Oxygen is produced by photocatalytic conversion of surface materials by stellar energy.
  • Fresh surface material is constantly exposed through processes such as seismic activity, volcanism, or erosion.
  • The oxygen rapidly depletes from the atmosphere through oxidization with surface materials: a rough equilibrium between production and depletion exists.
  • The percentage of oxygen in the atmosphere varies according to the density of global cloud cover.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)[edit]

Coroskor has no free-standing water or ice on the surface. Wilderness refueling isn't possible on this world. Water for the inhabitants needs to be imported and extensively recycled. These worlds are classified Desert World or a Hell World depending on their atmosphere.

  • The world is an arid, hostile environment.
  • Planet-wide dust storms turn the skies a deep orange.

Satellites:[edit]

Coroskor retains a large close binary planet companion.

Mainworld Geography and Topography[edit]

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.

Native Lifeforms[edit]
