TO: Extra-solar Exploration Command
FR: von Neumann Exobiology Probe / Sagittarius Arm
SJ: JHerschel5173
1. Completed stellar survey from nondesignated star and replicated 8 additional units. Identified and initiated jump to target system (JHerschel5173)
2. After Alcubierre jump, began initial surveys of JHerschel5173 Orange/Red Dwarf system.
> a. Primary star is a K2V Orange Dwarf Star.
> b. Planetary system consists of two terrestrials.
> c. System targeted due to solar similarity.
2 semi-watery rocky planets. 1.3 earth masses, orbital inclination 15 degrees, varies from .3 to .54 AUs over 152 Gaian days. 62% aqueous/cesium chloride ocean cover, maximum depth 2 kliks, thick oxygen, CO2, argon, nitrogen atmosphere. Minor comet/asteroid belt at 2 AUs. 0.68 earth masses, orbital inclination 36 degrees, 3 AUs. 20% water/ammonia ice cover, 65% ammonious/rubidium chloride ocean cover, average depth 1.5 kilometers, max 5 kilometers, thick oxygen, CO2, nitrogen, ammonia, xenon atmosphere.
JHerschel5173Aa is terrestrial. It is 6,502 kilometers in radius and orbits between .3 to .54 AUs from its primary with an inclination of 15 degrees. The atmosphere is composed primarily of argon, CO2, nitrogen, oxygen, and krypton. Average surface pressure of .92 bars. The hydrosphere is composed primarily of liquid water and cesium chloride. The lithosphere is composed primarily of oxygen, silicon, calcium, nickel, and silver.
A comet/asteroid belt is present at .78 AUs.
JHerschel5173Ab is terrestrial. It is 5,820 kilometers in radius and orbits 1.5 AUs from its primary with an inclination of 36 degrees. The atmosphere is composed primarily of nitrogen, xenon, oxygen, CO2, and ammonia. The hydrosphere is composed primarily of liquid ammonia and rubidium chloride. Water is locked into massive icecaps. The lithosphere is composed primarily of oxygen, silicon, technetium, iron, and molybdenum.
JHerschel5173Ba is a terrestrial. It is 6,040 kilometers in radius and orbits .027 AUs from its primary with an inclination of 24 degrees. The atmosphere is composed primarily of argon, oxygen, CO2, nitrogen, krypton, and ammonia. Average surface pressure of 10 bars. The hydrosphere is composed primarily of liquid ammonia and cesium chloride. The lithosphere is composed primarily of oxygen, silicon, nickel, iron, and potassium.
JHerschel5173Bb is a gas giant. It is 69,364 kilometers in radius and orbits at an average distance of 1.1 AUs from its primary. The atmosphere is composed primarily of hydrogen, helium, argon, ammonia, and methane.
>d. Recommend JHerschel5173Aa for habitation.
