Template:Star SystemThe Pantheus System, also known as EGC-13, AELNIS-1 or RS-8496-928-6-91668-45 is a .990 star system located in the fringes of the Orion Arm in the Milky Way. Pantheus is a binary system, consisting of a 1.26 M☉ F9 spectral class star, known as Pantheus A (Cthnos), and a .67 M☉ K5 spectral class star, known as Pantheus B (Klintriarch). From Sol, Pantheus appears as a magnitude 11.78 star in the constellation of Crater.
Both stars in the system have complicated planetary systems. Cthnos has eleven planets and twenty rounded moons, while Klintriarch has a system of twelve planets and 22 rounded moons. The majority of the system's mass resides in the Cthnoite system as it is orbited by five J-class planets, all of which have masses exceeding that of Jupiter. The Klintriarchian system by comparison is predominantly N-class and I-class planets.
The Pantheus System was first catalogued in early sky surveys of the 20th and 21st centuries. Interest in the system began when famous human explorer Sylvester Arsiza visited in 2245 and documented the system, adding it to his Expansion General Catalogue as EGC-13. When Arsiza later created Arsiza's List of Notable Interstellar Systems, Pantheus was classified as AELNIS-1.
Although Sylvester Arsiza would later discover more unique systems, the Pantheus System remains significant as one of his favorites, and one of the first he put considerable effort into investigating. The system is well known today among local residents of the Confederacy of Humanity. It is now administered as a historic location, offering tours of the system to visitors and drawing in a moderate attendance rate.
System Architecture
Pantheus is a binary system, with both Cthnos and Klintriarch orbiting a central Barycenter. Both orbits intersect, and Cthnos is the inner of the two orbits, having a pericenter of 139.26 AU and an apocenter of 419.39 AU. Klintriarch's orbit has a pericenter of 263.67 AU and an apocenter of 794.07 AU. The stars orbit with a 1:1 resonance, with both stars completing an orbit every 20,283 terran years. Cthnos travels at 952 mph while Klintriarch travels at 1,737 mph.
Both planetary systems have significantly deviant orbital planes. The Cthnoite planetary system is angled 50° relative to the plane of the system, while the Klintriarchian planetary system is angled 230° relative to the plane of the system.
The Pantheus system has no circumbinary planets.
