Are by"1st planet" you mean 1st from the stars, right?
The 1st planet is the closest planet to both stars.
I see. After the planet votes will there be extra object votes?
Yes and the first basic type votes are complete! It’s time for the size of the 1st planet.
- Earth-like (0.8 rE-1.4 rE)
- Mini-Earth (0.2 rE-0.8 rE)
- Super-Earth (1.4 rE-2.5 rE)
- Maybe Supe-Earth (2.5 rE-3.5 rE)
What did you mean by “Maybe Super-Earth”?
Maybe Super Earth is an option that is the maximum size of Super Earth planets.
Shouldn’t it be rather “Maximal” or something rather than “Maybe”?
The radius of the 1st planet was determined to be small. It’s radius is now 0.7 rE.
There’s multiple polls in a post now.
- 0.1 mE-0.8 mE (light planet)
- 0.8 mE-1.5 mE (Earth-like mass)
- 1.5-3 mE (massive planet)
- Mild elliptical orbit
- Near-circular orbit (like Earth)
- Very elliptical orbit (for crazy seasons)
- Captured asteroids
- Big moon (1.5-2.5 rM)
- Small moon (0.3-0.8 rM)
- Mid-sized moon (0.8-1,5 rM)
- Hot (40-30 °C)
- Warm (30-25°C)
- Lukewarm (25-20°C)
Not sure the “massive” option is very realistic…
Is this like first planet in front of the star, if so isn’t there like a hidden rule no moons exist that far in? (Besides like tempature being blasting hot or cold depending on time it orbit itself)
Where did you source this rule off from?
Venus and mercury having no moons, and the sun being much closer that its gravity overrides the planets own
Sorry if the planet isn’t supposed to have moonx here’s a poll determining it.
- No moon
- I want the winner option moon
So here it is.
Moons should still be possible even in the inner orbits…
If the planet has a stronger gravitational pull than the sun when it’s closer yeah.
(Also it wasn’t directed against you ocean, I was just pointing out that the inner planets of solar systems lack moons.)
What should be the max amount of significant moons we can put on distant gas giants?
If major means spherical isn’t there like 4-5 in Jupiter’s orbit?
We’ll do it on a poll later. (These statements below are decided by the wheel of names.)
Here are the poll’s results:
- The planet is relatively light at about 0.3 mE.
- Very elliptical orbit.
- Small moon (0.3 rM).
- Hot planet.
If it was lukewarm, I suppose every next planet would need to be colder unless it had significant greenhouse effect, correct?
I would assume so unless the planet is just somewhere in the goldilock zone and not in the too hot area of the planet zones? But then again more than one planet can exist inside a goldilock zone
