The Orion Spur is the 27th Interstellar Object and the 1st Milky Way Galaxy obtained in The Beyond Bubble Universe, which can generate Stardust. (Unlocked at Rank 25)

In-Game Description[]

"The Milky Way stretches horizon to horizon across our night sky, a bright smear streaked with a Dark Rift. Our view is from a spur of stars within the galaxy. We're halfway between the core and the rim—each about 26,000 light years away."

Traits[]

Common[]

  • Sagittarius Arm (Speed) (Appears in garden):

"The Orion Spur sprouts from the Sagittarius Arm, one of two minor arms along with the Norma Arm. Arms are packed with gas and dust and shine with the glow of new stars. How many arms are there? We don't know. From inside the galaxy, it's tough to tell."

  • Spiral Structure (Payout):

"Arms spiral because objects closer to the core orbit faster. Spinning hurricanes, viewed from above, form similar spiral patterns. But those pinwheel bands soon disband. Why do galactic spiral arms persist for billions of years?"

Rare[]

  • Milky Way (Payout):

"The Milky Way is a barred spiral galaxy that's rotating while speeding through space, like a hurricane crossing a dark ocean. A dense nucleus is embedded in a thin disk of gas and stars, all of which is encased in a massive sphere, or halo, of sparse stars."

Epic[]

  • Cosmology (Speed):

"The scientific study of the universe asks the very biggest questions. How did it form? What came before? How does it work? Is it infinite? Will it die? All the pieces we observe—comets, moons, planets, stars, galaxies, nebulae, and even voids—provide some answers."

  • Dark Matter (Payout):

"Dark matter acts like a superhero. It’s everywhere in space and yet invisible. Its gravity distorts huge objects that we can see. It can even buttress a dwarf galaxy against annihilation by a giant one. The duo of dark matter and dark energy make up 95% of the universe."

  • Dark Energy (Discount):

"Little is known about dark energy, except that it’s repulsive. Opposing gravity, this strange force causes matter to scatter rather than attract, pushing our universe to expand faster and faster. Dark energy makes up 68% of the universe’s mass-energy density."

Constellations[]

  • Eridanus (1.5x Speed):

"Eridanus, The River, is the longest constellation in the sky. It starts near Rigel and twists and turns all the way to its brightest star, Achernar ("River's End" in Arabic). It was named after Eridu, an early Sumerian city in the marshes of what is now southern Iraq."

  • Hercules (2x Speed):

"The Roman warrior-god who defeated the Nemean lion (Leo), the Crab (Cancer), and Hydra, too, has a broad, squarish chest made of four stars, called the Keystone. Mighty Hercules is kneeling over Draco, the dragon he slew."

Astronomy Mission[]

Galactic Plane

Orion Spur's Astronomy Mission is Galactic Plane.

"Just as planets circle the Sun on an ecliptic, spiral arms form on the same plane. But the galactic disk is warped, like an old vinyl record, so our solar system dips below and rises above the plane as it orbits. In 4.6 billion years, the Sun has made 20 to 25 orbits."

Achievements[]

Achievement Orion Spur
  • Galactic Habitable Zones (Rank 3):

"As with planetary systems, the galaxy has sweet spots where life can take hold. Our spur is less chaotic than a busy spiral arm. At our midway locale, we avoid both the core's extreme radiation and gravity and the metal-poor wasteland of the outskirts."

  • Band of Stars (Rank 6):

"In 1610, Galileo's telescope revealed that the milky smear across the night sky is not a nebula but a field of tiny stars. Immanuel Kant guessed that the stars form a rotating disk and that we are inside it. Today's telescopes are still filling in our galaxy's details."
