Well the Box was proposed for KS2 and was dumped for the map tiles (which look awesome), so maybe it can go in this KS so we can start storing things as well.

I wonder if this new album is the one we got sample tracks from in KS2?

Thanks for this.

End of the work year and holidays kept me away. :)

An eliptical orbit merely describes the shape of the orbit, it doesn't change the time period taken for an orbit.

An erratic orbit is one whose duration and shape changes, the problem is that erratic orbits tend to break down and the satellite ...

Woah there folks.

People do realise that it isn't orbital distance that causes winter and summer right? It is exposure to sunlight based on the angle the planet's axis makes with the sun - the more sunlight because of this angle the warmer the time of year (handily this is why days are longer in ...

Aside from the map I'd be interested in the environment pictures that came in the art bundle with KS1 for example.

This is great stuff and when I start working on my own stats will be really useful.

Brightness isn't an issue. If the reflectivity (albedo) of the moons is lower than ours and they are at 90-100 degrees to each other it would be rare that there were bright nights (ie nights that are brighter than ours).

Also tides are influenced by gravitational pull. Massive tides would not ...

Well I got a shirt for me and my eldest from the KS. It was the canvases the interested me but the particular images offered not so much.

Hmm the map, unmounted, on canvas would be cool...

I gather that is what the broadcast PM was about. Would be nice to have a translation of that PM to English.

Woohoo bring on Book 2!

Ok now onto the next shiney thing: I wants me some Esteren "dungeon tiles" because they will be beautiful! (I also love using minis so I am biased.)
