Atos is the central star of the Atos System.[2]
Place in the system
Atos anchors the system’s inner rocky planets (including Eos, Micras, Pyros, and Indigo), a main asteroid belt that divides the inner planets from the larger outer bodies, the gas giants such as Chrysos, Thalassa, Nephele, and Glinos, and the more distant rocky planets including Noctis and Opsithe.
Observations and research
System models describing Atos and its planets were first published in the early 32.80s PSSC by the New Zimian Space Exploration and Settlement Agency and have been refined since. Observations continue to be supplemented by the Outer Atos System Survey, including imagery credited to the OASS-00O1 platform.[2][1]
Mythology
In addition to its scientific study, Atos features prominently in the religious traditions of the Reformed Stripping Path. Within this framework it is revered as the embodiment of light, creation, and cosmic order. Ritual observances, such as festivals of light and seasonal rites, are maintained by the Ordo Solis Invicti and other orders. These practices coexist with scientific observation but are not considered explanatory models for the anomalies recorded in the star.
White-Hole Interior Hypothesis
Atos exhibits recurring anomalies that have been recorded continuously since the early 32.80s PSSC. These include stable resonant oscillations, narrow spectral spikes, daily irradiance minima, patterned neutrino flux, persistent coronal structures, and crystalline ejecta. Each originates in the star and can be measured directly. Bassaridian scientists present these findings as evidence that Atos and its planets occupy the interior of a white hole. In this model, the system is bounded by the Lumen Boundary, a one-way horizon across which energy flows outward but not inward. Outbound signals acquire a small, coherent phase component, and this feedback is proposed as the mechanism responsible for the unusual regularity seen across stellar and planetary measurements.
The Solar Choir is a set of nine resonant oscillations in Atos that remain phase-locked over decades. The Azos-line is a narrow emission near 617–621 nm that appears in timed episodes correlated with the Choir. The Meridian Pause is a daily, millisecond-scale dip in irradiance observed at true local noon on Micras. The Neutrino Braid is a repeatable dawn flux pattern in neutrino measurements. Asteroglyphs are coronal loop structures that persist far longer than expected under standard models, and Sun-Seeds are crystalline grains expelled during some coronal events and later recovered in the outer system. Bassaridian researchers interpret these varied phenomena as expressions of the same boundary feedback: coherent returns from the Lumen Boundary that stabilize oscillations, narrow emissions, create interference minima, alter neutrino ratios, and extend the lifetime of magnetic and material structures.
The hypothesis is extended to explain apparent contradictions within the wider system. On Micras, tectonic and volcanic activity persists or recurs beyond predicted lifetimes, while climatic regimes remain stable despite energy balances that suggest instability. Calendar systems also display irregularities: the Pallisican Scientific Standard Calendar records a Time Sync Anomaly, and the Norton calendar advances by years of unequal length while repeating a fixed solstice marker. These inconsistencies are treated as planetary-scale expressions of the same boundary condition: small cycles and inputs that remain phase-coherent and accumulate rather than dissipate.
The White-Hole Interior Hypothesis is presented as the only framework capable of connecting these anomalies under one principle. It situates Atos and the Atos System in a class apart from ordinary astrophysical systems, marked by low-entropy structure and extended coherence. The model yields specific tests: the Azos-line should align with peaks of the Solar Choir; the Meridian Pause should remain constant within instrumental tolerances; the Neutrino Braid should change by integer steps during eclipses and alignments; wide-field surveys from within the system should detect a weak directional asymmetry; and edge probes should measure small deviations in proper time relative to clocks near Micras. As of the 52nd century PSSC, available data are provisionally consistent with these predictions, though long-duration probe missions and independent verification of the predicted asymmetry remain outstanding.
