Mitra

Mitra is a low mass brown-dwarf in the Rakta System. It was formed as a binary around Rakta.
== Location ==
Mitra is situated in an eccentric orbit, about 5 AU from Rakta. It is moving away at 3cm/year. But it was moving much faster in the past. It will most likely escape the system entirely.
== Planetary System ==
Mitra has a small planetary system of its own other than thousands of tiny bodies captured from the Kuiper belt.. However most of the notable bodies are appreciably small and the system has decayed overtime dues to tidal forces and interactions with the Kuiper belt.
=== Animo ===
It is a small icy body in high orbit around the brown dwarf. The size is little over that of Ceres.It is an insignificant body and was probably journeying outwards until it interacted with something in the Kuiper belt and now will inevitably pluge into the brown dwarf.
=== Lucio & Trey ===
They are a binary asteroid system which orbit the brown dwarf every 50 days. They probably started as a single body but something caused them to speed up until they disintegrated.
== Astrophyhsical History ==
Mitra was formed with Rakta as it's binary companion. They both were initially brown-dwarfs but Rakta was far more massive to start with and ended up becoming a star. Mitra started migrating outwards pretty much as soon as it formed,and was accelerated into an higher orbit by the star at about 8.7 billion years ago. This event it known as the Migration of Mitra. This not only kick started planetary formation but also destroyed some of the existing ones and disturbed almost every orbit within the system. This also started a LHB in the system. This makes Mitra an ever significant part of the Rakta System.
It shepherds the Kuiper belt in the system and occasionally flings objects out into interstellar space.
== Trivia ==
Mitra was planned as a Jupiter analog but ended up in a way high orbit. So mass was increased to make it a brown-dwarf.
Mitra is the hindi word for companion.
