I would like to start my own worldbuilding project centered mostly on the local Solar Neighborhood's stars. It is mostly inspired by Larry Niven's Known Space universe, Robert L. Forward's Cheela series, and the Solar System of the Bio of a Space Tyrant series. The fictional names from Danny Phantom and The Fairly OddParents used for real stars are based on this previous thread I made. It is set around 2300 CE.
Here is a rough overview of what I have conceived so far:
Here is a rough overview of what I have conceived so far:
- Helios (the Sun) - the Solar System:
- Mercury - American colony, capital is Caduceus City.
- Venus - Colony of various African countries.
- Earth - Remains mostly as it is, with more countries (not just former British colonies) being under the authority of a larger Commonwealth-like federation (with authority over the colonies on other planets) based in London. Has the largest population of the planets.
- Luna (the Moon) - Analogous to and mostly a colony of Ireland. Capital is New Ballyfermot.
- Oceanus Procellarum - ruled over by the Earth's interplanetary Commonwealth, analogous to Northern Ireland.
- Luna (the Moon) - Analogous to and mostly a colony of Ireland. Capital is New Ballyfermot.
- Mars - Canadian colony. Capital is New Toronto.
- Phobos - Analogous to Brobdingnag from Gulliver's Travels.
- Deimos - Analogous to the Canadian territories.
- The Asteroid Belt - Colony of various South American countries. The asteroids are the debris of a planet called Athena, slightly larger than Mars, that blew up thousands of years ago following a nuclear war by its inhabitants, which in turn has its roots in one of the planet's teenagers cheating on a school test.
- 1 Ceres - Analogous to and a colony of Brazil; faces overexploitation of salt and brine.
- Jupiter's system - Colony of various South Asian countries:
- Io - Iran
- Europa - Israel
- Ganymede - India
- Callisto - Pakistan
- Amalthea - Turkey
- Thebe - Saudi Arabia
- Himalia - Syria and Iraq (lots of refugees from here and war)
- Saturn's system - Colony of various East Asian countries:
- Titan - Japan
- Mimas, Enceladus, Tethys, Dione, and Rhea - Russia
- Hyperion - South Korea
- Phoebe and Mundilfari - Indonesia
- Inner, irregular satellites (Helene, Pandora, Janus, et al) - Philippines
- 2060 Chiron - Colony of Ustinkistan (fictional country from The Fairly OddParents)
- Uranus's system - Analogous to the current-day European Union and colony of its various members. And yes, there will be the "Uranian Union" ("UU").
- Mab - Rumackistan (fictional country mentioned in Danny Phantom to have had a guerilla uprising)
- Miranda - Italy
- Ariel - Spain
- Umbriel - Germany
- Titania - France
- Oberon - Iceland
- Portia - Denmark
- Sycorax - Portugal
- Neptune's system - Colony of Australia
- Triton - Mainland Australia
- Nereid - Tasmania
- Naiad - Cocos and Keeling Islands
- Pluto - Analogous to Lilliput from Gulliver's Travels
- Charon - Analogous to Blefuscu from GT
- Eris - Colony of New Zealand
- Hyperion (or Nox; Planet Nine) - Analogous to Antarctica
- Pariahdark (moon of Hyperion) - Analogous to Western Antarctica
- Terminatra (moon of Hyperion) - Analogous to Eastern Antarctica
- Klemper was a former moon of Hyperion that was accidentally blasted out of orbit by an explosion into a heliocentric orbit (a parody of Pluto's origin in World of Ptavvs by Larry Niven).
- Danny Phantom/Daniel Fenton: A neutron star/pulsar that formed in a supernova explosion 2 million years ago in the direction of the constellation Leo. It was discovered in the year 2037 CE, then in the direction of the constellation Virgo, and was found to be closely approaching the Solar System. In 2350 CE (the same year in which this universe is mostly set), Danny Phantom/Daniel Fenton will make its closest approach to the Sun at around 200 astronomical units before leaving, never to return. Two human spacecrafts were launched in 2042 CE to the pulsar to study it up close, and the humans onboard made a breakthrough discovery: intelligent life forms evolved out of the dense matter making up the star, in the same vein as Robert L. Forward's Cheela. The humans christened this alien race the "Dannians". The history of the Dannians, which occurs over only a few days to humans as the Dannians live millions of times faster than them, satires major events in human history. Danny Phantom has seven major asteroids orbiting around it:
- Urania
- Lady Justice
- Tucker Foley
- Sam Manson
- Jazz Fenton
- Jack Fenton
- Maddie Fenton
Danny Phantom's properties:
- Temperature: 12,770 Kelvin
- Diameter: 28 kilometers
- Mass: 1.1 solar masses
- Rotational period: 4.54 milliseconds
- Luyten 726-8 is a binary system of two red dwarfs named Wanda (star A) and Cosmo (star B) located over 7 light years away from Helios. Both are flare stars and have few terrestrial planets. Humans first reached the star system in a subluminal speed ship, the Timmy Turner, which launched from Earth in 2068 CE. The Timmy Turner arrived at the stars in 2081, and landed on a habitable Mars-sized moon of a gas giant dubbed Blonda, in orbit around Wanda. The astronauts aboard the Timmy Turner founded a human colony on Blonda's moon which eventually became a large city called Blakesville, which, as of 2350 CE, has a population of around 3,000. Blonda's second-largest moon was blown up following a battle between interplanetary police and members of a mafia organization that committed crimes around the Solar System before escaping to Luyten 726-8.
- Dark Danny/Dan Phantom: A quark star located 10,000 light years away in the constellation Cassiopeia.
- Makeup and jewelry (including wedding rings, watches, etc.) are now illegal for any gender.
- All women are to dress modestly. Women are not permitted to wear trousers or long pants.
- PBS Kids, Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!, and Ying Yang Yo! are strictly blacklisted.
