At a Glance
The New Paris Colonies on Omega Aurigae II are a rare example of a "super-habitable" 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. The New Parisian colonists have brought the French sense of being avant-garde with them.
