Except Pluto and Charon are about the same size and orbit their shared center of gravity.

You're wrong. /thread

A way a lone a last a loved a long the riverrun, past Eve and Adam's, from swerve of shore to bend of bay,
brings us by a commodius vicus of recirculation back to Howth Castle and Environs.

there is just one problem bout that "smaller radiation spamming star" theory... our sun is a Yellow Dwarf... it's as small as it gets (sunvise), except for Ironsuns (stage before death)

That's only the natural qualification
Whatever composition the nomad superweapon had, you couldn't in real life know what a sun would look like if it was hit by one

There would need to be some vast shrinkage of pluto/charon orbit or the sun massively expanded

Relative size of sun from pluto/charon

Got me there :\
Unless another effect was that Pluto got sucked in closed to Sol
Or bad design
I'm still convinced that title screen is supposed to represent post apocalyptic Sol though ^_^

It's a game.

As you may be able to tell the FL Devs weren't exactly perfect with astrophysics and have made more than enough errors for the sake of game mechanics.

Perhaps that's what's intended in the title screen.

It isn't Sol, look around the system, you can see the Sirius sector nebula's which are not visible from Sol.

Or it could be a planetary nebula left over from the suns destruction.
