Title: Systems with Populated Planets
Post by: Top Gun on July 31, 2001, 01:38:00 pm: Apologies for this but my knowledge of the GTVA systems is patchy.

Can someone tell me the systems that have GTVA populated planets and the Names of those close to Gamma Draconus as I need this info for a campaign, Thanks.

Post by: Stryke 9 on July 31, 2001, 03:22:00 pm: Since there is literally no info on most of the GTVA systems, and those unpopulated fronteir systems that keep popping up, I'd assume that all the mapped ones are populated. For fic on them, ask me, Steak (assuming those Dubhe renders count), or anyone else who habitually writes fanfic.

The names are
, but the systems don't nessicarily have anything in common with the real-world systems. Case in point: the real Capella is a binary star system (or even a quadruple system, depending on how far out you go...)

Post by: Stryke 9 on August 01, 2001, 06:43:00 pm: Plus, no, we know nothing about planets beyond our solar system, aside from a few very close systems which we are pretty sure contain planets because they're so huge and so close to the sun that the sun practiaclly orbits the planet (and then we only assume the existence of a planet 'cause the sun's wobbling). So FS is absolutely free from scientific fact.

Wait - lemme guess! Just like a Real Universe™, you can't see the floor of your room, right? (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/lol.gif)
