PHASE 1 TURN 3
0314b - Romus
Romus the Greater is a white star approximately the size and mass of Sol. During Earth's early space age, the Romus system featured heavily in popular science fiction novels.
A typical F-class yellow-white star has a mass of 1.4 times greater than Sol and are around 1.5 times the radius. They have a lifespan of around 5 billion years before the hydrogen runs out and the star goes supernova.
0314b - Remus
Remus the Lesser is a red dwarf in the Romus system. In popular fiction Remus is depicted as orbiting Romus, but in fact as all celestial bodies they share a central point of orbit, known as the Barycenter of the system.
A class M main sequence star, small and exceedingly common. These relatively cool stars often mass only a fraction of Old Earth's sun.
0808a - Pentas
Pentas the Red, a giant visible from Earth's night sky, a part of the Enoch constellation.
A low-to-medium mass star in a late phase of stellar evolution, a red giant has exhausted the supply of hydrogen in its core and switched to hydrogen fusion in a shell around the now helium core instead. While the star itself is huge, the outer envelope has a lower temperature, giving the star its characteristic hue.
0809a - Osyr
Osyr is a yellow star in the Enoch constellation.
A typical F-class yellow-white star has a mass of 1.4 times greater than Sol and are around 1.5 times the radius. They have a lifespan of around 5 billion years before the hydrogen runs out and the star goes supernova.
1010f - Chetu Nebula
For eons the Chetu Nebula was thought to be part of the Corona Nebula due to its proximity in the nightsky from Old Earth. Some schools of thought say that it is in the same constellation, and should be considered one large nebula, although in reality the two interstellar bodies are lightyears apart.
A nebula is a distinct luminescent part of interstellar medium, which can consist of ionized, neutral or molecular hydrogen and also cosmic dust.
1011c - New Acropolis
New Acropolis is presumably named for the citadel in Athens, on Old Earth. From the Greek root Acro-Polis, meaning a high city. New Acropolis may one day be a center of commerce, trade and war.
A very high temperature and luminosity O-type star. Although extraordinarily massive this star is short-lived due to the hellish rate at which it fuses its constituent elements. It will quickly, for a star, explode as a supernova which may briefly outshine entire galaxies before transforming into a black hole or neutron star. The energies unleashed from the star's raging fusion heart erupt in powerful stellar winds that will strip the atmosphere from closely orbiting planets
1110c - Vakapola
Vakapola is a Red Dwarf extremely close to Sol.
A class M main sequence star, small and exceedingly common. These relatively cool stars often mass only a fraction of Old Earth's sun.
1111b - Dobrovolsky's Star
Dobrovolsky's star was named for Georgi Dobrovolsky, the first human to give his life in space. It is one of Sol's nearest neighbors.
A class M main sequence star, small and exceedingly common. These relatively cool stars often mass only a fraction of Old Earth's sun.
1111d - New Delaware
New Delaware is Sol's nearest yellow cousin. It was considered by early space-faring civilization to be a great candidate for colonization.
A G2 type primary sequence star, estimated age is five billion years. Surface temperature is only about six thousand degrees, while core temperature could well exceed fifteen million degrees.
1115b - Lion's tail Nebula
The Lion's Tail extends away from Nemea.
A nebula is a distinct luminescent part of interstellar medium, which can consist of ionized, neutral or molecular hydrogen and also cosmic dust.
1211f - Rénmín Zhī Xīng
Renmin Zhi Xing, like all white dwarfs, is invisible to the unaided human eye from Earth. This is because White Dwarf stars are so small and emit a lot of their light in the ultraviolet part of the spectrum they can be very hard to see in the night sky. They will be visible from orbiting planets, however.
The beginning of the end for most stars, the white dwarf was once a red giant not massive enough to fuse carbon. Extremely dense and slowly radiating away its heat as it no longer undergoes fusion reactions, its volume is supported against gravitational collapse only by electron degeneracy pressure.
1218e - Gurung
Gurung is named for its discoverer, Professor of Astrography at New Oxford University, Gideon Malthus Gurung.
A class M main sequence star, small and exceedingly common. These relatively cool stars often mass only a fraction of Old Earth's sun.

OOC
@Lord of Elves, I did not see your edit. I banked your SP and went with the original orders.
@NinjaCow64, you are losing pogs, keep it up!
I will update the map again on Friday 5/5/23 after 8 pm.
If all orders are in before then, and also I have a few free minutes, I will update ahead of schedule.
Otherwise, I will update on schedule with or without all participants.
