"Far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of the Galaxy lies a small unregarded yellow sun. Orbiting this at a distance of roughly ninety-two million miles is an utterly insignificant little blue green planet whose ape-descended life forms are so amazingly primitive that they still think digital watches are a pretty neat idea."
All following variant clues use their standard meanings - full descriptions are provided below.
Cheers heaps to Kyunitar, Nico and FIT7Y for their early testing and feedback.

Lots of fun, maybe a little easier than 2 star. I wish the rating system here allowed for partial stars.

I wasn't sure from the wording if the rules were indicating negative constraints, so I had to rule that out by clearing fog. Loving this series though.
AaronH: Thanks for the comment. Just to make it clear for others, no negative constraint in this puzzle. (When those are required, my rules state so explicitly and I have started also using visual reminders on recent puzzles as well) :)
