Dinja Is a small planet 18 light years away from Luraul. It was originally a colony for Al-Leyans, but it eventually became autonomous and is under Federation space. Unlike the Al-Leyans on Luraul, Humans, and Vulcans are allowed to attain citizenships.
Geography
Dinja's crust is 60km thick on average, with someareas reaching 85km thick, but this is less then 5%. Dinja crust also has 3.5 times more metals found in the , crust.
Dinja takes 23.25 hours to spin on its axis, it is 155 million km from its star, and take 370 days to make a full orbit. The average surface temperature is 12 Celsius.
History
Society
Time
Due to the difference in Societies, Terrans introduced their 24 hour clocks, but as a practice Terrans have learnt to move their dial 45 minutes ahead when they wake up due to the shorter days. Al-Leyans have continued to use their UGT(Universal Galatic Time). Al-leyans have found that 3 pulses from PSR B1913+16, gives them a full day, where as on luraul it is 4 pulses.
Though many Terrans have begun to use the Al-leyan's UGT system becuase of the ease of use, and lack of need to be precise. The Dinjan time system follows a quinary system almost.
- 1 pulse = 7.75 hours
- 1/5th pulse = 93 minutes
- 1/20th pulse = 23 minutes and 15 seconds
- 1 centipulse = 4 minutes and 39 seconds.
Town clocktowers
Dinjan life usually has clock towers in any city center to denote, and chime the time. Dinjan clocks chime every one twentieth of a pulse, and has a unique chime for 1/5th of a pulse, and a pulse. These clocks usually display a pentagon clock with two hands and 20 marks. while have a round circle besides it with one hand denoting which pulse it is.
Al-leyans don't feel the need to use centipulses, yet terrans tend to like the idea.
