The star Adara is an O-Type blue main sequence star of 54 Solar Masses. The star's mean radius is 12 times that of Sol. The habitable zone of Adara is 74.31 AU to 104.45 AU. The system has a mean diameter of 30.45 AU and contains; 7 planets significant asteroids, 6 photo-planets, 5 comets, and 4 asteroid belts. This is the largest star in the Adara Sector.

Planets

Ribunuta

Distance to Star
2.85 AU
Class
A

This rocky furnace of a world stays at temperatures close to that of molten lead due to volcanic activity. The planet has one tidally locked moon.

Mckest

Distance to Star
3.09 AU
Class
C

The cold world lacks an atmosphere of any kind, essentially a massive rock in space.

Sphas

Distance to Star
3.32 AU
Class
A

With a thick atmosphere powered by constant volcanic eruptions and tectonic shifts, the surface temperatures of this world are extreme, on both ends. Near the poles the temperature can drop to -200 degrees Celsius in the winter months while at the equator the planet maintains a temperature of 190 C. The equator is where the majority of the tectonic stress from, orbital projections suggest that tidal forces between Mckest and Mckeg during certain orbits could fuel the internal turmoil of this world. The world has a very short day/night cycle, far faster than any other world in the system.

Mckeg

Distance to Star
3.51 AU
Class
A

This hot world has temperatures close to molten steel. For some reason the planet has an incredibly powerful magnetic and gravitational field. The inner core of this world is extremely dense and hot and rotates very fast, the planet has a powerful magnetic field due to the dense core. The dense and rotating core also gives the planet an incredibly powerful gravitational field. There are a total of 27 moons in orbit about Mckeg.

Cluprah

Distance to Star
6.66 AU
Class
K

Cluprah is a particularly small planet having a thin atmosphere that no longer supports liquid water. The planet's axial tilt is 303 degrees, making it unusual.

Stra

Distance to Star
20.6 AU
Class B

This world has a thick atmosphere, mostly sulphur / carbon dioxide and hydrogen. Temperatures are too high to support liquid water, but there are vast seas of mercury which flow on the surface like water. This world also has an extreme axial tilt of 177 degrees.

Chra

Distance to Star
74.24 AU
Class C

This rocky world has no atmosphere, though it exists just outside of the systems habitable zone and could potentially be terraformed. This world has a retrograde orbit.

Proto-Planets & Asteroids

An unusual feature of this star system is the existence of proto-planets within the system, possibly the result of planetary collisions. it is believed this would also explain the large number of asteroids in the system. These proto-planets exist in dense dust clouds between the 6th and 7th planets. This is also where 89% of the steroids in the system exist here.
