    Image source
    • Proxima Centauri b orbits within the habitable zone—the region where liquid water may exist on the surface.

    It usually doesn't get much brighter than twilight anywhere on the surface. The brightest flares from Proxima Centauri would be the equivalent of not very strong sunlight (on Earth). It receives about 400 times more X-ray radiation, and is subject to much stronger stellar wind pressures than those experienced by the Earth.

    Note: the following description has been cherry-picked from all the possible real world scenarios.

    The flare activity of its parent star is not a problem, as Proxima b has a strong magnetic field. Water and an atmosphere are present, with average temperatures similar to those on Earth. A wide equatorial belt is permanently ice-free.

    While the tainted atmosphere has prevented the colony from seeing explosive growth, it has experienced solid, steady growth over the decades. It's main industries are agricultural (a sizeable amount produced from the oceans) and manufacturing. There are numerous facilitiesto take refugees (if the Earth were to be attacked), as well as extensive Unified Government and Unified Forces back-up command facilities.

  • Size: 0.82 solar masses
  • Type: orange dwarf
  • Distance to Earth: 10.475 ly
  • Nearest Major Star Systems: Sol, Eden
    • Has a higher level of magnetic activity than Sol, and thus the outer parts of its atmosphere are more dynamic.
    It is more luminous in X-rays than the Sun at peak activity. The source for this strong X-ray emission is Epsilon Eridani's hot corona. Epsilon Eridani's corona appears larger and hotter than the Sun's.
    Epsilon Eridani's hot corona results in a mass loss rate in Epsilon Eridani's stellar wind that is 30 times higher than the Sun's. This stellar wind generates the astrosphere that spans about 8,000 au and contains a bow shock that lies 1,600 au from Epsilon Eridani.
    Epsilon Eridani hosts an extensive outer debris disk of remnant planetesimals left over from the system's formation.

    Orbit:
  • under investigation
    • Located near the inner edge of the star's habitable zone.
    As its mass is about 4.3 times that of Earth and radius is over 1.5 which would give it a density either near or possibly higher than Earth. It has an estimated surface gravity of 1.6 times that on Earth.
    Because it is so close to the star, it is likely to be tidally locked. Although this scenario could result in extreme temperature differences on the planet, the terminator line that separates the illuminated side and the dark side could potentially be habitable, as the temperature there could be suitable for liquid water to exist. Additionally, a much larger portion of the planet could also be habitable if it has a thick enough atmosphere to facilitate heat transfer away from the side facing the star.

    The planet is has an equilibrium temperature of -155°C. This is too cold for liquid water and would mean that the planet is entirely coated in ice, depending on its true composition. However, due to the planet's eccentric orbit, the temperature varies wildly from as high as -97°C to a low of -178.2°C.

    It is likely non-habitable: it's too far from its star and more likely to be a Mini-Neptune, with a minimum mass almost 8 times that of Earth. Even at its closest approach, it never enters the system's habitable zone.

    • Its orbit brings it so close to the surface of the star that temperatures in the 200–400ºC range are most likely—conditions not hospitable for Earth-style carbon-base life forms.
    The low mass of the planet has led to suggestions that it may be a terrestrial planet.
    Alternatively the planet could have formed as a gas giant, and migrated inwards with the other gas giants. In this model, the planet would have a pressurised ocean of water (in the form of a supercritical fluid) separated from the silicate core by a layer of ice kept frozen by the high pressures in the planetary interior. Such a planet would have an atmosphere containing water vapor and free oxygen produced by the breakdown of water by ultraviolet radiation.

    • Lies beyond the outer edge of the habitable zone.


    Orbit:
    Models of tidal interactions between a hypothetical moon, the planet and the star suggest that large moons should be able to survive in orbit. It is unclear whether such moons could form in the first place. However, the large mass of the gas giant may make it more likely for larger moons to form.
    The orbital period would have to be no greater than 7 days in order to have a stable orbit.
    Tidal effects could also allow the moon to sustain plate tectonics, which would cause volcanic activity to regulate the moon's temperature and create a geodynamo effect which would give the satellite a strong magnetic field.

    • It is in its star's habitable zone (but outside the conservative habitable zone), receiving approximately as much energy from it as the Earth does from its star.
    The planet is believed to be in, or very close to, the right distance from its sun to allow liquid water to exist on its surface.
    Its temperature is predicted to be relatively similar to Earth's, but is subject to significant swings as it orbits its star. The planet's average equilibrium temperature is predicted to be -20°C, but is estimated to vary from -40°C to 7°C.
    However, because of its large mass, it may have a dense atmosphere, which could make it much hotter and more like the planet Venus.

    The planet is likely tidally locked. However, there would be a sliver of habitability—called the terminator line—where the temperatures may be suitable (about 0°C) for liquid water to exist. Additionally, a much larger portion of the planet may be habitable if it supports a thick enough atmosphere to transfer heat to the side facing away from the star.

    In the case that it possess a Venusian-like atmosphere, it would be inhospitable because of a runaway greenhouse effect on its surface. Any oceans on its surface would have boiled away, and the temperature would have risen to around 427°C. The surface pressure would have also increased to around 100 times Earth's surface pressure. The net result would be that Gliese 832 c being a desert planet, rather than an ocean planet.

    Upsilon Andromedae

    A binary star system. Upsilon Andromedae is both the first multiple-planet planetary system to be discovered around a main sequence star, and the first multiple-planet system known in a multiple star system.

    A0. Titawin (υ Andromedae A)
  • Size: about 1.27 the size of Sol
  • Type: yellow-white dwarf
  • Distance to Earth: 44 ly
  • Nearest Major Star Systems: under investigation
    • The amount of ultraviolet radiation received by any planets in the star's habitable zone would be similar to the ultraviolet flux the Earth receives from the Sun.
    The X-ray emission of Upsilon Andromedae A is low for a star of its spectral class. This means that the star may be moving out of the main sequence and expand its radius to become a red giant star.
    A1. Saffar
    (Upsilon Andromedae b)
  • Type: gas giant
  • Size: est. 1.70 Jupiter masses
  • Rotation: under investigation
  • Orbital period: 4.62 days at 0.0594 AU
    Orbit:
  • under investigation
    • Unlikely to have large moons, since tidal forces would either eject them from orbit or destroy them.
    It may be tidally locked with Upsilon Andromedae A.
    A2. Samh
    (Upsilon Andromedae c)
  • Type: gas giant
  • Size: est. 13.98 Jupiter masses
  • Rotation: under investigation
  • Orbital period: 241.26 days at 0.829 AU
    Orbit:
  • under investigation
    • May actually be a small brown dwarf.
    Its high orbital eccentricity may be the result of gravitational perturbations from the planet Upsilon Andromedae d. Simulations suggest that the orbit of Upsilon Andromedae c returns to its original circular state roughly once every 9,000 years.
    A3. Majriti
    (Upsilon Andromedae d)
  • Type: super Jupiter
  • Size: est. 10.25 Jupiter masses
  • Rotation: under investigation
  • Orbital period: 3.496 years at 2.530 AU
    Orbit:
  • under investigation - may have habitable moons
    • Orbiting within the habitable zone.
    In an eccentric orbit.
    Simulations suggest that if sufficiently large moons exist, they may be able to support extraterrestrial life.
    A4. Upsilon Andromedae e
    (Upsilon Andromedae d)
  • Type: gas giant
  • Size: est. greater than 1.059 Jupiter masses
  • Rotation: under investigation
  • Orbital period: 10.539 years at 5.25 AU
    Orbit:
  • under investigation
    • A Jupiter twin.
    Orbit similar to Jupiter, in a more circular orbit (less eccentricity) than any planet in the Sol star system.
    B0. Upsilon Andromedae B
  • Size: about 0.2 the size of Sol

    0. 51 Pegasi
  • Size: about 1.11 the size of Sol
  • Type: yellow dwarf main sequence
  • Distance to Earth: 50.9 ly
  • Nearest Major Star Systems: under investigation
    • A sun-like yellow dwarf star
    The first sun-like star found to have a planet orbiting it.
    It is generally considered to still be generating energy through the thermonuclear fusion of hydrogen at its core, but to be in a more evolved state than the sun.
    1. Dimidium
    51 Pegasi b
  • Type: hot Jupiter
  • Size: 0.472 Jupiter masses
  • Rotation: under investigation
  • Orbital period: 4.23 days at 0.0527 AU
    Orbit:
  • under investigation
    • It is much closer to 51 Pegasi than Mercury is to Sol.
    It probably has a greater radius than that of Jupiter despite its lower mass. This is because its superheated atmosphere must be puffed up into a thick but tenuous layer surrounding it. Beneath this, the gases that make up the planet would be so hot that the planet would glow red. Clouds of silicates may exist in the atmosphere.
    The planet is tidally locked to its star, always presenting the same face to it.

  • Orbit: orbits with a projected seperation of 860 AU
    • Similar to the Sun. It is somewhat cooler than the Sun.

    Orbit:
    • the eccentric orbit and mass of 16 Cygni Bb makes it extremely unlikely that a terrestrial sized planet will be found orbiting within the star's habitable zone.
    • only particles inside approximately 0.3 AU remained stable within a million years of formation, leaving open the possibility of short-period planets. Observation rules out any such planet of over a Neptune mass.

  • Type: gas giant
  • Size: est. 2.38 Jupiter masses
  • Rotation: approx. ### days
  • Orbital period: oval orbit in 799.5 days with a semimajor axis at 1.69 AU
    Orbit:
  • under investigation
    • In an eccentric orbit, which might be the result of gravitational perturbations from 16 Cygni A.
    The high eccentricity in its orbit may have been caused by tidal interactions in the trinary star system, and the planet's orbit may vary chaotically between low and high-eccentricity states over a period of tens of millions of years.
    It experiences extreme seasonal effects. Despite this, simulations suggest that an Earth-like moon would be able to support liquid water at its surface over the course of a year.

    Regulus (α Leonis)

    One of the brightest stars in Earth's night sky.
    Regulus appears singular, but is actually a quadruple star system composed of four stars that are organized into two pairs.
    A0. Regulus (α Leonis)
  • Size: about 3.8 the size of Sol
  • Type: subgiant blue-white main-sequence
  • Distance to Earth: 79.3 ly
  • Nearest Major Star Systems: under investigation




    • Spinning extremely rapidly, with a rotation period of only 15.9 hours, which causes it to have a highly oblate [flattened] shape
    This results in so-called gravity darkening: the photosphere at Regulus' poles is considerably hotter, and five times brighter per unit surface area, than its equatorial region.
    A1. Regulus D
  • Size: at least 0.3 solar masses
  • Type: probably a white dwarf
  • Orbital period: orbits around a common centre with Regulus approximately every 40 days
  • Orbit: orbits at 0.35 AU




    • Has not yet been directly observed [in the real world].
    Regulus's highly oblate shape may noticeably alter the mechanics of the two stars' mutual orbit around their common centre of mass.
    B0. Regulus B
  • Size: about 0.8 the size of Sol
  • Type: yellow dwarf main sequence
  • Orbital period: under investigation
  • Orbit: orbits principal pair at 5,000 AU




    • Thought to be physically related to Regulus C
    B1. Regulus C
  • Size: about 0.3 the size of Sol

    Algol (the Demon Star)
    Aa1. Algol A
    (β Persei A)
  • Size: 3.17 solar masses
  • Type: blue giant main-sequence star
  • Distance to Earth: 92.8 ly
  • Nearest Major Star Systems: under investigation
    • Hot and luminous primary, still in the main sequence.
    One of the best known eclipsing binaries.
    The mass of Algol B is transferring to Algol A in a gas flow. The transfer is small.
    The system also exhibits x-ray and radio wave flares. The x-ray flares are thought to be caused by the magnetic fields of the A and B components interacting with the mass transfer. The radio-wave flares might be created by magnetic cycles similar to those of sunspots, but because the magnetic fields of these stars are up to ten times stronger than the field of the Sun, these radio flares are more powerful and more persistent.
    Aa2. Algol B
    (β Persei B)
  • Size: 0.70 solar masses
  • Type: orange sub-giant star
  • Orbital period: orbits around a common centre with Algol A every 2.87 days
  • Orbit: orbits at 0.062 AU
    • Larger, but cooler and fainter subgiant star at a later evolutionary stage than Algol A.
    Causes a roughly 10-hour long eclipse (when viewed from Earth).
    Ab. Algol C
    (β Persei C)
  • Size: 1.76 solar masses
  • Type: a smaller blueish white dim dwarf main-sequence star
  • Orbital period: orbits around a common centre with Algol A every 680.2 days
  • Orbit: orbits at 2.69 AU
