Q&A

What would the impact of 2 suns have on the development of humanoid ocular organs?

+0
−0

How would the human eye have developed differently on a planet with two suns?

One sun will be a yellow star functionally the same as Sol and the other will be a red dwarf. The planet will be earth-like and orbit around both stars.

I am curious about the impact to:

  • Eye and component part size
  • Eye and component part shape
  • Functionality (inner workings)
  • Impacts to seeing depth/dimension

Additional notes:

  • The two stars are .5 AU apart
  • 20% more luminosity falls on the planet
  • Don't worry about the planet being too hot
