Fust is the third planet of the Valentine system in the planet pack Extrasolar. It is a habitable world mostly covered in oceans. The little land that exists is covered in teeming plant life. It only has one moon called Kuprus.

Stationary orbit around Fust is not possible — it would require an altitude of 35 790.91 km, outside of Fust's sphere of influence.

In-Game Description[]

Fust is a planet very similar to Kerbin. It has a thick atmosphere that is rich in oxygen. Fust's surface is mainly covered in water, with small mountainous islands peppering its surface.

Atmosphere[]

Fust has an atmosphere just thick and dense enough to support bodies of liquids on its surface. The atmosphere has a sea level pressure of 60.80 kilopascals (0.6 atmospheres), and a depth of 54 000 meters.

Like all other atmospheres in the game, Fust's atmosphere fades exponentially as altitude increases. The scale height varies with altitude. The pressure-altitude profile is globally constant and independent of temperature. The following table gives the atmospheric pressure at various altitudes above the datum level.

Altitude (m) Pressure (Pa) Pressure (atm)
0 60 795 0.600
10 000 6 026 0.059
20 000 496.8 0.005
30 000 55.84 0.001
40 000 6.701 0.000
50 000 0.466 0.000
54 000 0 0.000

Natural Satellites[]

Fust has only one natural satellite:

  • Kuprus, a rocky moon, similar to Duna.

Synchronous Orbit around Kuprus is impossible, as it lies outside the Sphere of Influence of the moon, as is common with tidally locked bodies.

Biomes[]

Fust has a total of 5 biomes.
