I believe that life can form around red dwarfs, but what do you think?

Honestly, I don't think the storm systems you describe would work. You see, Mir is orbiting a M class star, which I assume is fairly young. M-class stars, or red dwarfs, give off a lesser amount of light than the Sun. Storm systems on Earth are formed by difference in temperature on the surface, combined with the rather thick atmosphere to produce winds from that difference. These winds then form fronts, which in turn forms our various types of weather. Your proposed moon, as you explain it, doesn't have the atmospheric capacity to produce even the most feeble storms. Furthermore, your temperature of -23 degrees Celsius wouldn't allow water vapor to form. Lastly, Mir's doesn't have an axial tilt. Earth's axial tilt allows it to have seasons as the planet progresses through it's orbit. Even with your moon's orbital parameters, it wouldn't have the capacity to have a summer. So please, next time you think of a suggestion...Remember Science This PSA message is brought to you by Saurodye. Thank you. Im not an native English speaker, so cut me some slack please!

@AndrewDrawsPrettyPictures Are the suggestions just limited to a Moon for Mir? (Sounds like a book) PS You spelled Extrasolar 'extrasoar' Thank you, Saurodye

Hey. I've got an idea for you: Poffo This moon would orbit Mir and would be roughly 2x Gilly's Size. The structure of the planet would resemble something like...I don't know...a snow poff. *BLATANTLY OBVIOUS UNDERTALE REFERENCE* Anyway, the surface would be soft, rolling hills with the occasional mountain/mountain range to spice it up. Maybe a couple of canyons, I dunno. The color of the planet would be a greyish-white, and darker in some areas. Somewhat like the color of Eeloo, without the dirt patches. Since its small and REALLY hard to get to (not that its orbiting a planet that's orbiting a different star entirely.) the science multipliers should be quite high. That's my suggestion for this mod. I use it quite a lot and it would be nice (but not essential) to have implemented. Thanks, Saurodye

Im really thankful for all your help. I don't know what i'd do with out it. Thank You!

Great! Now I dont have to sit and play with the throttle during my big Kerbin science grinds!

OK. So this is what i've thrown together as a test world. If you can find any errors (Im sure there will be) please notify me so I can make a CORRECT template for future use. (Not saying that Guardians is not good! Its amazing.)

Quick noob question: Do I need to keep the System folder in the Config folder? I wouldn't like to delete the universe AT ALL!

Yeah... Sorry Im wasting your time. Im a extreme newblet when it comes to moding. But thanks for the help!

Whats all this "key" stuff? And how can I change it in a way that doesn't potentially screw everything up?

Hello! Im very new to the modding community, and thus far I havent been able to find a reliable Kopernicus tutorial. And, not to be rude, I'm sick of seeing all these KopernicusTech tutorials because they no longer work. So could someone supply me with a legitimate Kopernicus tutorial? Thanks.
