Re: Plantary System for 82 Eridani

My next challenge is to start coming up with some realistic xenobiota to populate it with... Yes, that is a true challenge. I've had the planet in my avatar (in various forms around various stars. long story.) in Celestia since at least 2003, and all I've been able to come up with are cats with blu...

Re: Rosphevron, a quintuple star system

Wow... awesome! What tools did you use to generate all those stars Thanks! :) It's not a tool but a php script. I use a Levy distribution to generate the stars' luminosity (hence the magnitude and mass), and a gaussian for the inclination and distance from the center. The STC can be downloaded here...

Re: Rosphevron, a quintuple star system

Thanks! I'm polishing the solar system SSC now, so the release should come soon. It will include: 1) surface maps for the planets and moons 2) SSC file containing orbital elements for most bodies, except a few that will have custom XYZ coordinates because their orbit is chaotic due to close encounte...

Rosphevron, a quintuple star system

Hi all, I'm already well advanced in the process of designing the textures and orbital elements of all bodies in hydrostatic equilibrium within Rosphevron , a system with five stars (two binaries and 1 solo star). This means 6 planets and 10 moons. Here are a couple of pics to give you an idea of th...
