Debdeb will be one of the two new star systems in KSP2. Debdeb is likely the name of the star. Debdeb will be the first star system to be added to the game after early access along with interstellar scale parts.

Planets

Deb-rise on Gurdamma

So far, the only planets confirmed to be orbiting Debdeb from innermost to outermost, Char, Gurdamma, and Glumo, but possibly also including the Rask-Rusk binary system, and Puf. The known moons of the Debdeb system are Donk, a moon of Gurdamma, and Merbel, a moon of Glumo. Another moon of Gurdamma, called Gup, may exist, but is currently unconfirmed. The other shown planets, Lapat and Ovin, seem to be in a different system.

A list of celestial bodies found in the game code lists these planets and moons in the Debdeb system:

Star and system characteristics

Debdeb appears to be a very young star, estimated to be only 5-50 Myr, and appears more orange than Kerbol. This means it could be a K type star, meaning it would be smaller than Kerbol. It is still young enough to have remnants of the planetary disk now condensed and formed into a planetary debris disk and inner and outer asteroid belts.

If Debdeb is modeled and heavily inspired by Alpha Centauri, it could be assumed that Debdeb is around 3-5 light years away.

The system moves in a circle style configuration with a radius of 0.3 units. The system is offset by -0.5 X axis and -2.5 Z axis units from Kerbol, making it the closest of the other star systems, and roughly analogous in position to Alpha Centauri.
