This plan was unceremoniously discarded during the final phases of the ship's construction when Enrique instead gave it to Vyse and joined the Blue Rogues himself on his quest to find the Moon Crystals. Although still in drydock at the time, the vessel was essentially complete, as demonstrated by the fact that it blasted its way out of the Valuan Naval shipyard and primary military base, The Grand Fortress , single-handedly.
The Delphinus has the special distinction of being armed with Valua's newest piece of technology; the only fully-operational Moon Stone Cannon to have been manufactured at the time The Chameleon utilized a prototype Moon Stone Cannon as a test weapon. The device was so expensive and complex to assemble that it was the only one manufactured at the time.
Fortunately for Vyse and crew it is a weapon with few equals, capable of destroying all but the most powerful enemies with a single shot. Even the Silver Gigas will succumb to a handful of shots from this cannon.
Most disturbingly, despite its already impressive power and performance, the Delphinus is merely a prototype. It was Valua 's intention to manufacture an entire fleet of Delphinus class ships apparently sans the moonstone cannon on it's sisterships-to-be.
The eventual goal was to use this very fleet to achieve Empress Teodora's goal of expanding the Valuan empire and ruling the world. Upon its unplanned maiden voyage from Valua under Vyse's command, the Delphinus was not actually finished.
Although most of the remaining construction was not critical and more than likely cosmetic there were also a number of sub-systems that were not yet finished, and hence initially not operational.
Most critically, the hull was not fully reinforced rendering the ship unable to pierce stone reefs , and the engines required the attention of a skilled mechanic to make the adjustments required to fly through sky rifts. These modifications are done in game by Brabham at the fledgling Crescent Isle base after Vyse and company are able to amass and pay him 25, gold. Once upgraded, the Delphinus is given a new coat of paint; blue of the Blue Rogues instead of purple for the Royalty of Valua, and the standard on the back of the ship is altered to match Vyse's emblem.
We recommend that you book in advance, especially if you plan to visit us during high season, because our interaction programs have a limited number of participants.
The program is divided in two parts: on-deck briefing and explanation for touching the dolphins out of the water and interaction with the dolphins in the water. For more information about transportation click here.
Yes, each person who books a dolphin interaction program at Cancun Interactive Aquarium or Delphinus Riviera Maya is allowed to bring one accompanying member along at no extra cost for transportation. If you book online, please specify in the comments section that someone will accompany you. For security reasons, accompanying members will not have access to the deck or wet areas but they will be able to watch all the activities from the designated companion area.
Unfortunately, we are unable to offer transportation to anyone other than the participant and one accompanying member. Not at the moment. Delphinus recently collaborated in a scientific research project with ASS DISCAN, a non-profit organization interested in evaluating ameliorative processes for children with Down Syndrome and Autism in dolphin assisted therapies.
Their conclusions suggest that children improve some of their physical, emotional and behavioral skills as they interact with our dolphins. Now, we collaborate with Mexican foundations and our Animal Care Specialists are being trained and certified to develop a Dolphin Assisted Therapy Program in our facilities for children from the state of Quintana Roo. Yes, depending on the pregnancy's stage they can perform different activities.
However, if the pregnancy is very advanced, the Foot Push activity will not be possible. The first relates to the story of Poseidon and Amphitrite. Greek god Poseidon wanted to marry Amphitrite, a beautiful nereid, but Amphitrite wanted to protect her virginity and fled to the Atlas mountains. Poseidon sent out searchers to look for her, one of whom was Delphinus. As a thank you, Poseidon placed the image of a dolphin among the stars. In the second story, Delphinus was placed in the stars for saving the life of Arion.
Arion was a court musician at the palace of Periander, ruler of Corinth, who had amassed a fortune during his travels to Sicily and Italy. On his way home from a concert tour of southern Italy, other crew members on the ship started plotting to kill him and take the money he had earned. As he was threatened with death, Arion asked for one last wish which the crew granted: he wanted to sing a dirge. Constellation Delphinus is the 69th largest constellation in size, occupying an area of square degrees.
Its right ascension is 20h 14m Delphinus is best seen at 9pm during the month of September. It lies in the region of the sky between the bright Altair in the constellation Aquila and the Great Square of Pegasus. Rotanev, also known as Beta Delphini, is the brightest star in the constellation of Delphinus and has an apparent magnitude of 3. It is a binary star and was discovered as one in by the American astronomer S.
It consists of two white stars of the spectral types F5 III and F5 IV, a giant and a subgiant, which appear as a single point of light to the naked eye. They are separated by 0. Rotanev is located light years from Earth. Sualocin, also known as Alpha Delphini, is the second brightest star in the constellation of Delphinus and has an apparent magnitude of 3.
The main pair form a spectroscopic binary star that are separated by only 0. Alpha Delphini Aa is the primary component that is a blue-white subgiant with the stellar classification B9IV. It is thought to be around million years old, has a radius that is 3. Alpha Delphini Ab is the companion, but its properties are difficult to determine because it is much fainter and lies too close to the primary.
Alpha Delphini is located light years away from Earth. Musica, also known as 18 Delphini, is a yellow giant star with an apparent magnitude of 5. It is located around light years away from us and has a mass 2. It also has a radius 8. The name of the star is linked to the Greek myth of Arion, whose life was saved by dolphins at sea. It orbits the star from a distance of 2.
The planet itself has a mass at least Rotanev has five components. Stars A and B are are a true physical binary star, while the others are simply optical companions. Beta Delphini is a fine target for testing quality optics. By the way, in case you were wondering…. Nicolaus Venator was the assistant of the one and only Giuseppe Piazzi!
Are you ready for a look at Gamma Delphini? Here we have a binary star very worthy of even a small telescope. Located about a light-years away from Earth, Gamma is one of the best known double stars in the night sky. The primary is a yellow-white dwarf star, a the secondary is an orange subgiant star. Both are separated by about one stellar magnitude and a very comfortable 9.
Regardless of their spectral class, take a look at how differently their colors appear in the telescope. While Gamma 1 to the west should by all rights be white, it often appears pale yellow orange, while Gamma 2 can appear yellow, green, or blue.
Delta has no given name, but it has a partner. Its identical members are too close together to see separately and only by studying them spectroscopically were astronomers able to detect their Although Delta is officially classed as a type A A7 giant star, it has a very strange low stellar temperature and an even stranger metal abundance.
Chances are the Delta pair are really class F subgiants that have just ended core hydrogen fusion and both slightly variable.
