Description
WARNING: MAY CAUSE LAG BASED ON YOUR PC DUE TO NUMBER OF ASTEROIDS

NOTE: Addons in HOTSS pack will not be compatible with eachother, as they take place in different times of the Solar System

4.535 BYA: The Solar System, now has fully-formed, fully-developed rocky planets, 9, including the four which we will come to know later, Nabu, Aphrodite, Terra/Gaia, and Ares, soon to all have major giant impacts in the coming million years.

The Sun is now a yellow dwarf, currently in Early Main-Sequence...

Vulcan, the planet closet to the Sun, is Nabu's little brother, however it will soon suffer a dreadful fate.

Nabu, is the 3rd-largest rocky planet in our Solar System, however it will soon suffer a giant impact in a couple ten million years.

Aphrodite and Terra are the largest rocky planets around, almost like twin siblings, however one of them will become more notable and important over the history of our Solar System.

Ares is a charcoal-colored planet and the smallest of all the rocky planets (unless you count Artemis/Planet V residing in the asteroid belt.) soon it could develop life...

The primordial asteroid belt, so big, so massive, millions of asteroids residing in it, along with a few progenitors.

Asteroids Ceres, Vesta, and Pallas have moved inward into the asteroid belt due to the Grand Tack, in the process of cooling down, and Ceres is all alone.

One notable asteroid, Lutetia, formed with the inner planets and resides in the inner solar system, soon to be petrubed inward by one of the rocky planets.

Jupiter and Saturn are still cooling down, starting to look more recognizable, as they captured a lot of asteroids and minor objects becoming minor moons, and their major moons still cooling down, Europa and Titan (too?) to soon have oceans.

The Fifth giant has also gained a lot of moons, it is a ice giant similar to Neptune and Uranus, the three being a trio of somewhat, having also the most moons so far of the ice giants, however soon it will lose everything (almost).

Uranus's major moons are in the process of cooling down fast since they are farther away from the sun, as with Uranus earlier Boreas crashed into it tilting Uranus on its side as in Part 1.5.

Neptune has its set of moons fully formed, however later they will be destroyed by a familiar captured dwarf planet.


All dwarf planets are still in the process of cooling and some should have their moons by now...

Triton has almost cooled down, dancing with it's binary partner Tritiea, soon to be captured...

Pluto has recently captured Charon, forming a disc from which its other moons will form from...

That's all I have to say! This took I think a month to finish.

Also, if u want a good picture including the belts/disc, turn the planet magnitude to a high level.

NOTE: Please let me know if there are any inaccuracies or bugs in the pinned discussion.

I will prob return to work on these when Planet 9 and the new hypothetical Planet Y are confirmed or disproven, likely. For now at some point I might do some unrelated mods, I had a Battle For Dream Island mod planned for whenever, also I thought all of Neptune's irregular moons came from Triton causing the destruction of Neptune's old moons?

add minor moons to Triton, bc Neso, Psmatha, Laomedeia and Sao can be ejected Triton's moons
