| SUMMARY | ||
| → | A moon whose orbit takes it high above the ring of a gas giant | |
| DESCRIPTION | ||
| → | ||
| → | In Norma Arm, near the border of Arcadian Steam, a B and F star system contains a helium-rich gas giant with a special moon.
The moon, which orbits the gas giant in just under a day, has an orbit with an inclination of 44 degrees. Since the moon also orbits quite close to the ring, this makes for a fantastic sight when you land when the moon is above the ring. The gas giant together with the ring then seems to fill the entire sky.
