Buk'ma and Buk'ta are twin suns. Buk'ta orbits Buk'ma as is is about 1/18 its size.
Buk'ma is a Dark Blue sun or a Type O Star.
Temperature: 28,000 - 50,000K
Composition: Ionized atoms, Especially Helium
Buk'ta is a Red Sun or a Type M Star.
Temperature: 2,500 - 3,500K
Composition: Ionized atoms, Especially Helium
Buk'ma provides the main source of light to the solar system and is the most feared of the two. Because they raise at the same time there is normally no inlongated amount of light to the planets. Due to the rotation of the planets to the sun, they average to travel just over a third slower then the planets in the Sol system. Therefor Zanzavarnian Years are about three times longer then Earths.
Once ever several hundred years the two suns line up with Zanzavar properly and cause extream weather conditions. Mass flooding of the world happens do to abnormal gravitational effects. |
