A tidally locked planet at Barnard's Star. Some years
ago I split the now disproven super earth into a double
planet and did some animation. Now we have a tidally locked
rockball...
The planet is smaller than Earth, is liable to be rather
like Mercury, just with twice the gravity and with some ices
which can be used for habitats. The three day year and tidal
lock doesn't mean the sun doesn't slowly rise and set as the
orbit is probably highly eccentric.
I chose to name the planet after E.E. Barnard's wife, Rhoda
nee Calvert and the capitol is Calvert on the darkside under
a constellation of mirrors at the L2 lagrange point.
