More messing with Universe Sandbox
More messing with universe sandbox. I put a copy of Earth in place of Yih and messed with the density and radius to match Yih. I was previously trying to do it from scratch. This is much easier since Yih is "like Earth unless nnoted".What I've discovered:
Yih has a lower environmental lapse rate, meaning temperature decreases more slowly with altitude, meaning severe weather shouldn't be as common (fewer tornadoes, boo!)
The surface air pressure is higher by about 100 mb.
Edit:
Never mind on the hard to breathe part. While this may be true of yinrih on Yih, the atmosphere on a terraformed dwarf planet will be thinner, perhaps equivalent to the cabin of an airplane at cruising altitude, so the missionaries that find Earth won't have any issues, as they were born on a dwarf planet.
I'll probably mess with the ratio of CO2 to N2 in the atmosphere to compensate for the lack of insolation vs Earth.
