First of all, a fantastic post, and extremely informative.
Just one point though. Isn't Jupiter inside of Saturn in the solar system? This would mean that the Dreadnaught was less likely to have passed it on its way to Saturn.
Unless of course, you meant the Taken forces on their way to various battlefields (does anyone know exactly how they travel to battlefields?).
That aside, very good post!

depending on the time that the dreadnaught arrived, Saturn could have been on one side of the solar system while Jupiter could have been on the complete opposite side of the solar system, nowhere near each other. point being, the planets are rarely lined up in a straight line from the sun.
-
Fair point, and I wasn't working on the basis Oryx timed his arrival during a planetary alignment! However, my point remains fairly solid as it is unlikely that Oryx would have chosen to pop by Jupiter on his way to Saturn. As you say, the planets are rarely close to each other and so it would seem unlikely that Jupiter would be "on the way".
-
yeah I agree. I'm guessing Saturn was the 1st planet in general that he came across when entering the solar system considering, at least to my knowledge, there's no other reason why he's at that particular spot in the 1st place. I always thought it would make sense that he'd go straight for the moon where Crota was.
-
That would also make a lot of sense, unless he was holding back his main fleet to protect it.
-
Nah! I disagree! I'm thinking he had Sulu at the helm and went for a stealth approach but mistook Saturn for Jupiter!

No, the order of plants from sun out is: Mercury,Venus, earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto.

Editado por KebintheGervil: 9/13/2016 8:39:58 PMYes, you've got the order correct. My post staying that Jupiter being [i]inside[/i] of Saturn('s orbit) makes the same point. The Dreadnaught coming from outside of our solar system was likely to have not passed Jupiter. It is very nice to see you all class Pluto as a planet as opposed to a dwarf planet. I do can't bring myself to remove it from my list of planets.

Well, while this is all completely irrelevant I will put my 2 pence in. We don't know which direction the Dreadnaught came from... it may have entered the system near where Jupiter was and moved toward Saturn from their basically heading out of the system a little. No reason why that would happen. Maybe using Saturn's rings as some cover while they began the war... maybe something to do with the Nine (allies, too risky etc). Or maybe they just dropped in around Saturn.
-
Fair points. Statistically, it is rather unlikely the Dreadnaught approached our solar system on a trajectory that took it past Jupiter though (as big as it is, Jupiter is still a pretty small component in the solar system). I would plump for just damn luck. Ultimately, my point was that it was unlikely that Jupiter was passed by on its way into the system, which I think (so far) still generally stands.

Ah okay, took your post the wrong way
-
No worries. All good!
