Rosette World

Three or more equal masses (worlds) set at the points of an equilateral polygon, and with the correct equal angular velocities about their center of masses, will have a stable orbital configuration. The group does not require a central star.

• Please see Planetoid, Ringworld, Sphereworld for information about related technologies.

Description (Specifications)

Rosettes almost never occur naturally.

Rosette UWP

Rosettes are buildable at TL-Q (TL-24).

• In the UWP, the "main" rosette world is listed, and is given the comment code "Ax". Thus, if the UWP listing just looks like a world, but it has "Ax" code, this is a rosette. Or if not, then something more unusual, such as a small ringworld or "capsule" sphereworld. Additional information will be expected.
• Given the UWP: Tireen B45697A-9 Hi Ax, the mainworld Tireen is a typical world, but the Ax comment code shows that it is in fact one of a rosette of worlds.
• Note that even though rosettes are TL-24 technology, the technology on the worlds themselves may be at any level at all.

History & Background (Dossier)

The Ancients are thought to have created a rosette of five worlds at Tireeen (in the Vargr Extents).
