    Here's a random from the surface of Maol. Also, I will be updating Extrasolar again soon. Changes will include some minor tweaks here and there, as well as compatibility with AVP and Spectra

    Valentine's orbit did indeed change to reflect a slightly more realistic binary star orbit (most binary stars orbit each other rather elliptically). I'm assuming the reason why Valentine's periapsis is so close to the outer planets in JNSQ is because JNSQ is scaled up quite a bit but Extrasolar is not. However, I will create compatibility with JNSQ in the future.

    I mean, it isn't too complicated for me, but I find that quite a few people tend to get confused and overwhelmed by KSPIE

    Lomina has always been like that. Lomina is basically if Neptune was the size of jupiter. Because Ice Giants are more dense, it means Lomina has a much greater mass than Jool despite having only a marginally larger radius.

    To those who are interested, Extrasolar has indeed been updated:

    Real Exoplanets will be coming next

    Like any other planet pack, this requires kopernicus

    Extrasolar should work with research bodies, but I haven't created fancy descriptions for when you discover something If you want something that is extremely complicated and challenging, then KSPIE is the way to go. Otherwise, Near Future Propulsion and Photon Sailor are both good options.

    Extrasolar has yet to become compatible with AVP as well as Spectra, but I will be working on compatibility. It should be a matter of just a handful of config files. Extrasolar is compatible with SVE however.

Orbiting Valentine are several new planets and moons to discover. Because Valentine is so far away, you will probably have to download some mods in order to make the trip easier.

    Absolutely incredible. The cloud light pollution thing is very clever and I would've never thought of that.

    @pmborg Nah I'm not saying you can't post on this thread, I'm just saying that it gets a little overwhelming and excessive when there are long posts of raw information about exoplanets, that's all. I will repeat what I said before which is that the radius of Gliese 667Cc is unknown, and that 1.5 R-earth figure you see is actually assumes that its minimum mass is its actual mass as well as assuming an earth-like composition, which are two very big assumptions. More likely than not, Gliese 667Cc's mass is well above 4 M-earth, making it more likely to be a water world or mini-neptune with a large radius rather than a small, rocky, earth-like planet.
  13. Andi K.
    Here in this data table, you can see that Gliese 667Cc's minimum mass is about 4 M-earth. This is the minimum mass of this planet, meaning it's mass could very well be over 6 M-earth, placing it closer to the mini-neptune range. It's radius is also unknown since it was discovered using doppler spectroscopy, and no known transits have occured. Saying that we know its radius to be 1.5 R-earth is not true. As for its tidal forces, you can see that even if Gliese 667Cc is rocky, it would experience tidal forces 300 times that of Earth, which would result in an extremely active and volcanic surface. Also, I'll note that we do not know the surface temperature of any of these planets either, so stating that we do is just scientifically inaccurate, and might miseducate people, which I don't want. One last thing, @pmborg please stop flooding this thread with data about exoplanets. If you have some information/data/studies you want to share with me, please just link the source here.
  14. Andi K.
    Gliese 667Cc is most likely not habitable. More likely than not, it is a mini-neptune, and even if it is rocky, it would experience extreme tidal forces that would render the surface uninhabitable.

    I'm no longer maintaining RSSVE light. However, it's possible that I will update it at some point in the future. If I decide to update it, I will fix this problem. Mi traducción horrible: Ya no mantengo RSSVE light. Sin embargo, es posible que vaya a actualizarlo en algún momento en el futuro. Si decido actualizarlo, arreglaré este problema.
  16. Andi K.
    If you are curious about what my sources are, I do have a list of all sources in the OP.
  17. Andi K.
    I already have access to the latest information on the size and mass of these planets, and have used that information to create the planets.

    TRAPPIST-1d with a slightly more realistic ocean shape and more detail added to the ice sheets: New Proxima Centauri b map (I do notice the seam btw ): Surface of Teegarden c:
  19. Andi K.
    Ah ok. Yeah Tau Ceti g and h have lava on the surface, as well as TRAPPIST-1c.
  20. Andi K.
    It's not hot enough to have lava on the surface. It's kinda halfway between the temperature of Venus and Earth
  21. Andi K.
    Tau Ceti e is a steam planet. The planets with surface liquid are Tau Ceti e (water), Teegarden b (sulfuric acid), TRAPPIST-1b (liquid CO2), TRAPPIST-1d (water), TRAPPIST-1e (water) and TRAPPIST-1f (water).
  22. Andi K.
    Yup exactly. I can't remember exactly how hot it is off the top of my head, but it's definitely very hot.
  23. Andi K.
    Tau Ceti g
  24. Andi K.
    Dang I haven't seen you around in forever! I'm glad you like what I'm working on You made RVE didn't you?
  25. Andi K.
    That's a very good question haha. I haven't decided how the distances to stars will be scaled. More likely than not, I'll have a setting file where people can set their own scale to their liking.
