' Wrote:Katyn: not in the software I'm using yet...and, typicaly, the elipticals are still fairly close to circular unless its a wildly divergent object, such as some commets. I'm working on getting better shapes, though even if I do, some will still pass through suns
There are some pretty weird systems out there though. While I would think New London wouldn't have especially odd orbits, given that it was chosen as a place to set up a population and if the planet was viciously frozen it probably wouldn't work as well, that may be the reason why some aren't overly populated. Omega-3, for instance. Maybe Sprague wasn't populated because of a highly eccentric orbit?
