At a Glance
The New Paris Colonies on Omega Aurigae II are a rare example of a "superhabitable" world. Omega Aurigae II is more conducive to the long-term prospects of life than Earth. With minimal axial tilt for only small seasonal variations in temperature and a warm K-type star, Omega Aurigae II should be habitable for dozens of billions of years. It is a low-lying world dominated by greenery and shallow oceans. Its climate is similar to central-coastal France from early Summer to early Autumn. With it's light gravity, slightly less than two thirds of Earth's, Omega Aurigae plant life tends to be slender and towering. That same gravity has inspired local architects to design Neo-Art Nouveau structures that are thin, tall, and sometimes seemingly composed of glass only. With them, the New Parisians have brought the French sense of being avant-garde.
