X-TAS is the only planet orbiting it’s host star, TAS, or 61 Ursa Majoris. TAS is a late-G-type main-sequence star, 2 billion years old, with a radius 86%, mass 93%, and luminosity of 61% that of Sol with an effective temperature of 5,488K. The light it gives off is slightly more orange in hue than SOL.
X-TAS has a large, closely orbiting moon.
The planet has an extremely strong and active magnetic field that protects the planet from the x-rays emitted from TAS, and is the cause of brilliant auroras that at times nearly reach the equator.
X-TAS is currently in the midst of an inter-glacial period caused by an increase in Oxygen due to a bloom of both terrestrial and oceanic flora.
X-TAS was discovered by Compies in the year -1795 BCE, or 2655 AA by Director Rehya, who immediately made first contact with the symbiotic sapient denizens of the planet, notauri and sprytes.
