__forcetoc__ The Red Star was a planet that was attracted into the Rukbat System only a few million years before the Pern Expedition. Its orbit was almost parabolic in shape. Because of its orbit, It was conjectured by the original Pern colonists that the Red Star might eventually escape Rukbat's orbit or fall into the sun. It was noticed but ignored by the EEC team who explored Pern and declared it suitable for colonization. The colonists, upon arrival in the Rukbat system, speculated that they might see some spectacular meteor showers in about eight years time when the cometary trail crossed Pern's orbit.
