System Data

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

• The mainworld.
• x11 secondary rocky worlds.
• x1 planetoid belt.

Mainworld Data

The mainworld orbits just within the star's Habitable Zone.

• It lies at the far edge of the zones colder outer H- region.
• It receives lower levels of stellar energy.

• It lies beyond the stars Jump Shadow.

Mainworld Size (S)

Dlatlshtap is a Small World between 4,000km and 5,600km in diameter. The world has low gravity between 0.24G and 0.34G. The horizon will appear about 3km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)

Dlatlshtap has a pressure of 0.10 to 0.42 atmospheres. The very thin pressures require a respirator or Oxygen Mask this atmosphere also contains an unusual taint such as such as disease, a hazardous gas mix, pollutants, or sulfur compounds which requires the use of a Filter Respirator Combination Mask. Some taints may require more protective equipment. TL–5 or more advanced survival gear is required to settle this world.

• 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)

Dlatlshtap 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 a frigid, hostile environment.

Satellites:

Dlatlshtap retains a tiny planetoid moon.

• Its surface is cratered and irregular
• It orbits once every few days.
