[QUOTE]Originally posted by Lee: [QB] Many moons good, many planets bad! That is, it's easier to reconcile the system with known scientific principles if the number of actual planets is kept to a minimum in favour of boosting the number of moons. The question is, do we know how many planets there are? They talk about "worlds" but that's no help. And the images are vague - the pic with the teacher in front appears to have 19 at a stretch (work monitor isn't very good with dark backgrounds); the image below it 14 (although that could be a closer-in image showing the inner worlds; does the pattern of separation match?); and your map 21. Mind you, for all we know, some moons are actually referred to as planets because of their size, and to avoid having implied second-class status just because they orbit a gas giant and not the actual star. So really the innermost planets (what do we actually know about Angel and Liann Jiun?) and the outermost (ditto Burnham) need to be the most uninhabitable. That way, you're starting to get towards an almost-believable CHZ; I can well imagine planets like Sihnon and Osiris having a balmy tropical climate that's popular with the wealthy elite, a global St. Tropez as it were. I think your map is starting to represent that, once the number of planets-orbiting-the sun is brought down to the minimum justifiable by the evidence. [/QB][/QUOTE]
