SUMMARY
Down the galactic plane, a geologically active helium atmospheric planet orbits a cooled-down Wolf-Rayet. This is the only atmospheric landable known to orbit this type of parent star in the galaxy.Down the galactic plane, a geologically active helium atmospheric planet orbits a cooled-down Wolf-Rayet. This is the only atmospheric landable known to orbit this type of parent star in the galaxy.
DESCRIPTION

The darkened Wolf-Rayet.

While on first glance there seems that this star will not cast any type of brightness in its only orbiting body, however the atmosphere tells otherwise.

Silicate vapor geysers which decorates the horizon, suggests constant geological activity inside the planet. This has resulted in this planet having relatively normal gravity of 1.03G which its quite similar to Earth, a planet that it's only bigger by 538 km.

The Twilight realm

The planet accumulates the little light the parent gives it and creates a faint but bright reflection of its helium atmospheric component; not only brightening the skyline but the star itself. This makes an eerie sight that can't see nowhere else in the galaxy due to the rarity of the planet with the star type. Regardless of the light activity however, the planet itself is really cold maintaining an extremely cold temperature of 20k regardless of the time of the day.

The strange phenomena itself needs to be chased down, as the planet has a rotating speed of 1.1 d and it's not static. And easy way to do this is to land in the day line of body A1 while keeping an eye on the body, like shown in the picture above. Once you get the star in the horizon, you will be ready to enjoy this ghastly spectacle. Otherwise the atmosphere glows in a faint blue with the brightened parent in the sky.

Reflection of the light's brightness towards a spaceship

Turning around will let you have a stunning sight of the bottom of the galaxy as this location is -1,729 units bellow the galactic plane.
