[QUOTE="Wippit Guud, post: 1035048, member: 720"] It's strange that nothing in Dragonlance brought up what 3 moons did, or how switching to 1 moon changed anything. Now, I don't know what they have astromically, but if you read the Song of Ice and Fire series, their seasons are quite different. They're have a periods of 7-10 years of warm summer and warm winter, probably equivalent to what'd you experience in place like South Carolina. Then they have another period of 7-10 years of cold summer and cold winter... think Russia. Course, even stranger, when the book takes place, it's been the warm season for over 20 years. But it makes a good basis for what weather would be like with two suns if it's an uneven orbit, or even better if the planet actually orbits in between the suns. The 20 years of summer could even be a period when the gravities from the sun almost cancel each other out, slowing the planet down to a crawl in between them. [/QUOTE]
