System Data

Neefo-Buruque System

The primary Neefo, an ordinary red main sequence star. It has a luminosity of 0.0136 Sols, a mass of 0.3626 Sols, and a diameter of 551,000 km. (I) a vacuum worldlet, (II) Buruque, designated the mainworld, (III) a very thin atmosphere iceworld, (IV) an exotic atmosphere bigworld, (V) a ringed small gas giant, and (VI) a trace atmosphere iceworld form the outer system. Some of the worlds retain satellites.

Marklin Subsystem

The companion is Marklin, a magenta-coloured L-type brown dwarf that orbits Neefo at 165 AU (orbital position (XII), 24.7 billion km) and has an orbital period of 3,520 years. It is not luminous, it has a mass of 0.061 Sols and a diameter of 60,000 km. Marklin retains no planetary bodies.

Mainworld Data

(III) Buruque

(III) Buruque is designated the mainworld. It orbits primary at a mean distance of X.X AU (XX million km), within the habitable zone. It has an orbital period of X days XX hours and a rotation period of XX.X hours. The axial tilt is XX degrees. World has a diameter of XXXX km, a density of X.XX g/cm³, and a surface gravity of X.XX G. The world is geologically active. Its atmosphere is rated as Type, Taint, with a mean surface pressure of X.XX bar and a composition of 79% nitrogen, 20% oxygen, and 1% argon, water vapour, carbon dioxide, neon and other trace gases. The atmospheric taint is caused by thingy. Approximately XX% of the surface is covered in seas of liquid water: average tidal ranges exceed X.XXm. Mean surface temperature: XX°C. The atmosphere is dynamic and strong weather systems driven by the star and the seas sweep across the globe. The climate is seasonal.

Satellite

World retains a single natural satellite:
