Xylon is a
planetary system orbiting a yellow G-class star. The system lies in
the Aries Constellation of the Triangulum Region.
The Xylon System is home to a habitable moon
orbiting a brown dwarf, which itself orbits a
g-class star along the outer edge of the
habitable zone. The brown dwarf, which
contains a little over 20 Jupiter masses, has
been cooling since formation.
The
largest moon/planet that orbits the brown dwarf
contains about a third of Earth's mass.
The moon is covered in around 40% water, located
mostly in small, salty oceans which are
completely surrounded by land. With the
heat from the sun combined with additional heat
from the brown dwarf, the moon is warm enough
for liquid water.
