THE EXPANSE MAP PDF

It requires LaTeX ( ) and LyX ( ) to produce PDF output. The file kuxaku.lyx is a document describing the Solar System and Asteroid Belt for players with Python script generated images. Generated image titles display Darian date in parenthesis after the Gregorian date. Separate Python module darian.py contains conversion from Gregorian calendar to Darian calendar used in Mars. Tables have given parameters in their names (systemtravel05+60x40.png). At the end of the journey, final deceleration is again done with 6g for 4 hours. After that the cruise acceleration of 0.5g is used normally. For example, values juiceg 6 and juicet 4 start the journey with 6g acceleration for 4 hours. Optional command line parameters juiceg and juicet can be used for faster acceleration and deceleration at both ends of the journey. Note that the orbital movement of destination or possible obstacles like, for example, the Sun do not matter here.

THE EXPANSE MAP FULL

It assumes full acceleration to a halfway point, flip and deceleration to the destination.

Simple brachistochrone equation t=2*sqrt(d/a) is used for calculation. There are separate tables for Sol, Jovian and Cronian systems. Third one with full 1g acceleration (*travel10.png) is suitable only for earthers. Second one (*travel05.png) is faster and still tolerable for most belters. The first one (*travel03.png) is comfortable for belters. Travel time tables (*travel*.png) show travel times in days between same locations using 0.3, 0.5g and 1.0g accelerations. Delay between Earth and Moon is about 1.3 seconds. Delay between planet's moons is usually less than 10 seconds. Communication Delay and Travel TimesД¬ommunication delay tables (*delay.png) show one-way communication delay in minutes between the most important locations. These can be turned on by removing the comment character. Some objects (notably Eros, Sol Ring and Anderson Station) are currently commented out in the script.

Cronian inner system map (cronianinner.png) shows Saturnus' rings and inner moons with future orbit positions at one hour intervals Jovian outer system map (jovianouter.png) shows some Jupiter's outer moons with future orbit positions at one week intervals. Future orbit positions for moons are plotted at six hour intervals. Separate Jovian (jovianinner.png) and Cronian (cronianouter.png) maps display major moon positions around Jupiter and Saturnus, respectively. Future orbit positions are plotted at one year intervals. Outer planet map (systemouter.png) shows positions of some Centaurs (small Solar System bodies) and giants Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. For planets and colonized asteroids partial future orbits are displayed as dots separated by one month interval. Inner planet map (systeminner.png) shows positions of Jupiter, inner planets, important stations and selected asteroids (largest, heaviest or otherwise significant, and few trojans too). Solar System MapsД¬oordinate system origin used in maps is the barycenter of the Solar System, which means that the Sun is not exactly at the center. Option -p creates printer-friendly images with white background. Optional parameters juiceg and juicet define faster acceleration at both ends of the journey. p, -printer printable images with white background h, -help show this help message and exit Juicet optional juice acceleration time in hours Juiceg optional juice acceleration in standard gravities

THE EXPANSE MAP INSTALL

Install above mentioned Python modules in command line:.

Instructions for Windows users not familiar with Python or GitHub: Probably works wherever some recent Python version and above modules work.

THE EXPANSE MAP WINDOWS 10

Program is developed in OpenSuse Tumbleweed Linux and tested also in Windows 10 with Python 3.8. Matplotlib is used to plot tables and Solar System maps. Spktype21 is needed by asteroid data using type 21 format. Some can also be found from Linux distribution package repositories.Д®phem and Jplephem make most location calculations. These can be installed with Python pip tool (for example: pip install jplephem). In addition to the Python itself, following modules are required: Latest changes can be found from CHANGELOG.md Required Python Modules For background and examples, see: background.md Program uses real orbit data from NASA, but not real year 2350 locations. Solar System object location calculation and map creation for The Expanse role-playing game.
