in Sol Sector (Sol Arcsector). Bilateral symmetrical, the typical
human stands 180 cm tall and masses some 85 kilograms. The head
supports the brain and most of the sensory apparatus; binocular
vision, hearing, olfactory. The mouth typically shows 32 teeth
with varied functions - testimony to the fact that the species
is an omnivore. The arms are suspended from the internal skeleton
in socketed joints, have a single hinge-joint elbow, and end in
a hands with 4 fingers plus a single opposable thumb. The two
legs have a similar structure, but the fingers of the posterior
hands are vestigial. The epidermis is generally smooth and lightly
covered with hair, although this varies widely over the surface
of the body and between individuals. Pigmentation of epidermis
and hair is widely varied. The species is bisexual, and produce
live offspring which mature in 15 to 18 standard years. Females
are slightly smaller than males but tend toward higher agility
and intelligence.

Society: The species seems to have no typical society.
Human societal groups seem to randomly reorder their societies
about every second decade or so, all there are a few long term
exceptions.
