| Is a 17 hour orbital period realistic? Because when I read the book it had something like a 4-5 day orbital period. At a distance of about 180,000 miles.

In a binary system, the periods should be same for both. Also, orbital period also depends on mass.
I used this algortihm to calculate the period.

| I reverted the Orbital Period, it is fixed now. I tried to make it like it was in the book, but I guess the book had a few things wrong.

| I think the book is right:
I have as a result of the orbital period 0.01476623608138427346 years, or 5.39325240220687485753 days.
I use the same formula as Ostarisk:
Code OrbitalPeriod = sqrt (DistAU ^ 3 / (MassSolA + MassSolB))
Don't forget to look here.

| I guess I was right on the 17 hours was wrong, I'll update it, would it be stable in the place of the Earth and moon?

| Quote quarior14 ( ) And precise the luminosity it is in Sun's luminosity in the spoiler of the first post.
What do you mean?

| SpaceEngineer, I spoke of this section but it seems to me that you edited, unless I had frowned :
Quote SpaceEngineer ( ) Lum or Luminosity - luminosity of a star in solar units.

| I was reading up on the moment of inertia on Wikipedia, and I realized that for my custom planet Belle Hades, I did define a specific characteristic of her molten guts, describing the core as having a relative core radius to planet ratio of being 10% larger than the Earth's core radius relative to Earth's radius. However Belle Hades is smaller with a smaller mass. Do I need to input a different InertiaMoment for Belle Hades than what SpaceEngine generates?
The values I use are:
Radius: 5469.6462
Mass: 0.605434
The InertiaMoment SE generates upon export is 0.331279.
Specs: Dell Inspiron 5547 (Laptop); 8 gigabytes of RAM; Processor: Intel® Core™ i5-4210U CPU @ 1.70GHz (4 CPUs), ~2.4GHz; Operating System: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit; Graphics: Intel® HD Graphics 4400 (That's all there is :( )

| PlutonianEmpire, you don't need to input ALL parameters to the script. The InertiaMoment is used to compute the initial rotation period of the planet and it's increase caused by tidal interactions with other bodies. You don't need it if you specified the rotation period in your script.

| I am having Issues with creating a Barycenter here. I am making Theia as a moon of the Earth is this mod. The Barycenter, orbital periods is flat out wrong, and I need help. The rotation periods is probably wrong also, maybe the masses are wrong also.

| He has not changed a setting to RotationPeriod for Aurora, because Space Engine make a Brown Dwarf in a custom system with a quick rotation period but when I export the script, I don't see the parameters. Also, this aurora is beautiful :
