I don't think cauthan in this context is a proper noun/refferring to the species as a whole. it should probably be "Winters the Human and Veera the Cauthan" or both be lowercase.

* ScifiWritersHaveNoSenseOfScale: Both played straight and averted. The reason ''The Lancer'' is destroyed is that it came in too close to the sun. Winters then gets in a fairly small drop pod and lands on a planet about 1 AU from this sun. Either ''The Lancer'' never could get close to a sun or the drop pod travels unreasonably far. However this is also averted in that it will take at least a year for Earth to know that ''The Lancer'' is missing.
