it's what's known as an a-type star but it's also only about NUMBER_TOKEN million years old the first improbability from the novel is the fact that this planet seems to have some sort of complex life on it NUMBER_TOKEN million years is unfortunately not really enough for life to evolve even on a planet like a ruckus and so this is something that was not actually considered by frank herbert back in the days but planets here are definitely possible and some of the planets here are going to be extremely hot and be exposed to quite a lot of different types of ultraviolet radiation now in the novel this is the third planet away from the star so kind of like earth but in our simulation in space engine this planet is a little bit too toasty to survive on the average temperature here is roughly around NUMBER_TOKEN degrees celsius but naturally some of the farther planets could potentially have the necessary conditions to have just the right temperature unfortunately no planets have been discovered around canopus to date but they're probably there they're just maybe not as easily visible so in other words the existence of arrakis is kind of possible but how realistic is everything else in a novel and so the scientists behind this article are actually experts in climate simulations and to try to simulate all of this they kept the same fundamental physical laws that create climate and weather here on planet earth in other words they use the models and the simulations that are normally applied to study climate and different types of changes in climate here on planet earth for example by using the link in the description below you can find this website right here where the scientists have already simulated various types of changes in climate as our planet evolved in the last NUMBER_TOKEN million years so for example right around here you can sort of see how the planet looked like in terms of different climatic conditions during the jurassic era and so by going through different era you can see how the climate changed as the continents moved around and as a lot of bodies of water change in size and shape then they also have a really interesting and a quite realistic simulation of what might happen to our planet if essentially we don't stop releasing coNUMBER_TOKEN and if the climate change does not become any better in this case they show us what happens to the world if we agree to reduce the emissions of coNUMBER_TOKEN and a lot of other greenhouse gases and what happens to the climate on the planet if we sort of ignore all of this and pretend like it doesn't exist this particular simulation is very very convincing and all of this was done by running these simulations for up to about three weeks by running it on a supercomputer and this time the scientists decided to go in a slightly different direction they wanted to see what would actually arrakis look like and so by using all the parameters from the novel and also from some of the other sources like for example on wikipedia they built the model of the planet using its topography using a very specific orbit mentioned in the novels and also creating a specific type of an atmosphere as well in this case it's somewhat similar to planet earth in terms of the content of coNUMBER_TOKEN although the actual coNUMBER_TOKEN levels here are basically what we used to have in NUMBER_TOKENs so here we're talking about NUMBER_TOKEN ppm unfortunately today the levels are a little bit higher but on top of this they also added a lot more ozone to the planet itself and so even though on planet earth ozone only represents a tiny tiny fraction of the entire atmosphere on arrakis it's NUMBER_TOKEN percent
