System

The inner system consists of (I) a vacuum worldlet and (II) an insidious atmosphere inferno world. (III) Kassati orbits within the habitable zone and is designated the mainworld. (IV) a dense atmosphere bigworld, (V) a sparse icy planetoid belt, (VI) a small gas giant, (VII) a ringed large gas giant, (VIII) a trace atmosphere iceworld, and (IX) a spectacularly ringed small ice giant form the outer system.

(III) Kassati

(III) Kassati is designated the mainworld. It orbits primary at a mean distance of 0.67 AU (100 million km), within the habitable zone. It has an orbital period of 273 days 19 hours and a rotation period of 26.5 hours. The axial tilt is 22 degrees. World has a diameter 9,975 km, a density of 5.95 g/cm³, and a surface gravity of 0.84 G. The world is geologically extremely active. Its atmosphere is rated as Thin, Tainted, with a mean surface pressure of 0.58 bar and a composition of 77% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, 1% carbon dioxide, 1% argon, water vapour, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, neon and other trace gases. The atmospheric taint is caused by gases of volcanic origin. Approximately 48% of the surface is covered in seas of liquid water: average tidal ranges exceed 0.25m. Mean surface temperature: 14°C. The atmosphere is active and weather systems driven by the star and the seas cross the surface. The climate is seasonal.

Satellites

Kassati retains two natural satellites, a very thin atmosphere world named Seemo and an ice-capped world named Movic:

(IIIa) Seemo (UWP Y533000-0, orbiting Kassati at 25 Diameters/249,000 km)
(IIIb) Movic (UWP Y311000-0, orbiting Kassati at 40 Diameters/399,000 km)

Mainworld geography and topography

Total surface area: XX million km², Land surface area: XX million km², Water surface area: XX million km².

History & Background (Dossier)

World starport

Kassati has a Class E Starport, a frontier quality installation with few expected amenities. There is unrefined fuel for starships and a limited variety of ship provisions. There is no shipyard of any kind, but there may be parts and technical support for doing minor services and repair. Ports of this classification generally consist of a downport.

World technology level

Kassati possesses a Technology Level of TL–4.

World government

Kassati is governed by a Civil Service Bureaucracy. The leadership of the government takes another form (democracy, dictatorship, oligarchy), but the bureaucracy leadership influences policy. The government leadership may select the bureaucracy leadership, but not its membership. Usually the governmental leadership is divided, or incapable of setting policy, and the bureaucracy provides a stabilizing influence. This ruling bureaucracy may be the full government bureaucractic apparatus or a section with limited jurisdiction but considerable influence, like the military.
