The Chronos Almanac

Planning your Time in Adalia

Time Works Differently in Adalia

How do you track time in an asteroid belt? Anywhere you find yourself, there is a different local "year", and anything you try to use as a frame of reference is also moving.

The Chronos Almanac humbly suggests using a single orbit of the gas giant Chronos as the fixed point to plan around. At 3,053 days, it also shares this orbital period with all of the Trojan asteroids that are locked to it as well. (This is also a period of 121 days of real time with the 24x time acceleration of the game.)
