Ojalu is an agricultural world with the potential to become an industrial power.

• As an agricultural world, this world is a near-ideal environment for producing quality foodstuffs of plant, animal, and other forms. Quality foodstuffs are a major export commodity for this world.
• As a preindustrial world, this planet cannot yet manufacture enough high-technology resources to support a modern, star-faring society. Having to import many manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
• This is a "low technology" world with technology competencies well below standard for Charted Space.
• It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Annistu Subsector of Far Home Sector.

• Ojalu is a Voluntarily Regressive World

Astrography and Planetology

• This world lies on the Wolfs Tail Star Lane.

System data

The primary is Lwase, an ordinary white main sequence star. It has a luminosity of 4.42 Sols, a mass of 1.38 Sols, and a diameter of 2.031 million km. The inner system consists of (I) a vacuum worldlet, (III) a trace atmosphere worldlet, and (IV) a corrosive atmosphere inferno world – orbital position (II) is empty. (V) Ojalu orbits within the habitable zone and is designated the mainworld. (VI) a standard atmosphere hospitable world and (VII) an exotic atmosphere bigworld form the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.

Mainworld Data

(V) Ojalu

(V) Ojalu is designated the mainworld. It orbits Lwase at a mean distance of 2.68 AU (401 million km), within the habitable zone. It has an orbital period of X days XX hours and a rotation period of 22.5 hours. The axial tilt is 16 degrees. Ojalu has a diameter of 12,782 km, a density of 5.48 g/cm³, and a surface gravity of 1.0 G. The world is geologically active. Its atmosphere is rated as Standard, Tainted, with a mean surface pressure of 1.03 bar and a composition of 72% nitrogen, 27% oxygen, and 1% argon, water vapour, carbon dioxide, neon and other trace gases. The atmospheric taint is caused by the high percentage of atmospheric oxygen. Approximately 44% of the surface is covered in seas of liquid water: average tidal ranges exceed 0.25m. Mean surface temperature: 24°C. The atmosphere is dynamic and powerful weather systems driven by the star and the seas sweep across the globe. The climate is seasonal.

Satellite

World retains a single natural satellite:

(Va) Mukuru (UWP Y454000-0, orbiting at 30 Diameters/385,000 km)

Mainworld geography and topography

Total surface area: 513 million km², Land surface area: 287 million km², Water surface area: 226 million km².

Native lifeforms

Ojalu has extensive native life. Their metabolic processes maintain a cycle of atmospheric renewal.

  • Land: Bicycles and early steam coaches with advanced roadways.
  • Water: Advanced sailing and early steam engine ships.
  • Air: The earliest hot air balloons.
