Tyrol I

Planets

Tyrol I is the first planet from the two suns of the unclaimed Tyrol system. In close orbit around the barycenter of the binary stars, its proximity to them has led to a dangerously hot environment. Nevertheless, the surface is home to an ever-shifting group of squatters who…

Tyrol III

Planets

Tyrol III is a coreless terrestrial planet in the unclaimed Tyrol system. Third from its suns, it is distant enough from them that it is overall cooler than Tyrol I and Tyrol II, although still very hot. Thanks to the absence of a metallic core at the center, it lacks an…

Tyrol II

Planets

Tyrol II is a terrestrial planet in the unclaimed Tyrol system, and is the second world from its two suns. An iron planet, it is composed mainly of heavy metals, and has only a scant silicate surface. Scientists believe that Tyrol I once had a thick crust and mantle that was…

Tyrol VI

Planets

Tyrol VI is a gas giant in the unclaimed Tyrol system. The sixth world from its two suns, it remained largely unaffected when the F-type star entered its subgiant phase. Rain inside the atmosphere of Tyrol VI is composed of helium. During precipitation, the helium droplets fall…

Tyrol VII

Planets

Tyrol VII is a protoplanet in the unclaimed Tyrol system, and is the outermost planet in the system. In 2943, a widely-reported academic article claimed that Tyrol VII was far enough from its two suns that it had a high chance of remaining out of danger in the event of a nova.…
