    Well, you know, math is one of the things I am moderately good at.

    So, I made adjustments for the eccentricity of the planetary orbits and determined where they were at at the "moment of the snapshot." Now I have an interesting situation with three of those planets around the F class star. One drifts into the habitable zone for about a quarter of it's year, one spends about half of it's year in the habitable zone, and the third about 60 percent of it's year in the habitable zone.

    I am thinking for those last two, there might have to be some migration IF they turn out to be habitable. Of course they WILL turn out to be just that just to keep things really interesting. Haha.

    Oh, and did I mention that the last planet orbiting that K class star was eccentric enough that it darn near got itself tossed out of the system. Haha again.

    One's worth is not measured by stature, alone. By heart and honor is One's true value weighed.
