Kronos' Solar System
Kronos' star is called Surome. Surome is 7,000 light years from earth in the constellation of Serpens within the Eagle Nebula. It is 3.3 billion years old with the capacity of a lifetime for up to 6.880 billion years. Kronos was also formed around 3.3 billion years ago. The following table has more information on Surome and how it compares to our Sun.
| Surome | Sun | |
| Class | F8 | G2 |
| Temperature in Degrees Kelvin | 6200 | 5860 |
| Biometric Absolute Magnitude | 3.94 | 4.65 |
| Bolometric Luminosity | 2.10 | 1.10 |
| L Zams | 2.51 | 0.74 |
| Visual Luminosity | 1.93 | 0.97 |
| Mass (Mass of our sun = 1) | 1.190 | 0.998 |
| Radius | 1.260 | 1.020 |
| Terrestrial Equivalent Orbit in AUs | 1.45 | 1.05 |
| Lifetime in Billions of Years | 6.880 | 10.100 |
Surome is composed of 4 planets, including Kronos, and a moon around Kronos. The following table describes the planets' distance from Surome, the length of one of their years (time it takes to make one orbit around Surome) in Earth days, and what they are made of.
| Planets | Distance from Surome | Year (in Earth days) | Composition |
| Wolfie (innermost) | 0.75 AUs | 237 | Rocky |
| Kronos (2nd planet) | 1.45 AUs | 638.75 | 20% Land and 80% Water |
| Buttercup (3rd planet) | 2.9 AUs | 1802.56 | 90% Land and 10% Water |
| Kattes (4th planet) | 5.8 AUs | 5098 | Gases |
Kronos' Moon is named Kronitos. Kronitos takes about 52 days to orbit Kronos. That is twice the amount of time it takes our moon to orbit Earth.
